I finally found my favorite Porsche commercial of all time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRQzHwti5jw&feature=player_embedded#at=20

EDIT: Don't know why it starts at the end. Scroll back manually to see the whole thing.

I say "Big Fail". So, the lady marries another guy because he's late? Why is he late? Because he drove a VW? So, I won't drive a VW so my lady won't marry some other dude?

Eh, it's "borrowed creativity" from an old movie.

EDIT: No, the Alfa didn't die from mechanical ills. In the context of the film, Ben drove the it like mad half-way around California trying to find her, and just ran the poor thing out of fuel.

Holy cow, y'all won't believe this!

Old Atari ad for the home version of "Pole Position". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Om84Zc4-KcQ

Looks like they filmed it at Laguna with a pack of Super Vees or Atlantics or something.

The footage had a nice mix of ac/wc SuperVee's at Laguna!

And the doofus Dad had way too much of the Olberman-thing going on............

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ObUXS4KD7s This is my favorite Mustang Ad. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsyGOexjdQM&feature=player_embedded If Ford doesn't use this ad, they are dumb. Comeback!

Maroon, I like the "Field of Dreams" McQueen tribute better than the "Germany" Mustang ad..

But that "We Never Left" one almost makes me want to buy a Focus or Mustang or something. I'll admit that I was a Chebby fan as a kid, but that was when they were all Camaros & Corvettes & Corvairs. And knowing that Ford didn't have to take any bailout money makes me feel like I'd want to reward them. You're right, that's a great ad.

I just learned that I have something in common with Audrey Hepburn, Dita von Teese, Marlon Brando, David Bowie, Rhianna - no real surprises there.

Viva La Renault!
