Fucking grand! Finally, combating the idiocy of ricers and "pimped" and "tricked out" automobiles.

That is one of the best ad series ever. Complete love from me .

I think I'm in love with Peter Stormare... That was pure and unrefined 28-carat genius.

What you're seeing here is viral marketing in action. Viral marketing is basically the latest evil marketing tool developed by us evil corporate marketing drones; the idea is to create advertisements so interesting that people will talk about them and share them with their friends (which is what you see here). This results in the brand being built at an accelerated rate, with less of a connection between the brand and the actual quality of the products in question. As cars go, Volkswagen is more or less shit in every respect (quality, reliability, design), but their new ad agency Crispin Porter + Bogusky is arguably, at the moment, the worlds leading ad agency, and I have no doubt that this campaign will be hugely successful in rebuilding their brand.

I used to own an old VW. It was between 10-15 years old and never, ever gave me trouble (offcourse, it was a very basic model and things can't break if they aren't there ). Even survived a car accident with itBounty wrote:As cars go, Volkswagen is more or less shit in every respect (quality, reliability, design)
Are they selling different VW's in Europe and the US ? Because VW is one of *the* best brands in terms of quality and reliability.
Me: broken backlight, scratched paint
vs
Fiat: totalled
So yeah

They may well be, because VW in the US has a reputation for unreliability. Do you have any numbers?Bounty wrote:Are they selling different VW's in Europe and the US ?

I'm looking right now - for starters, there's 3 Skoda's (VW's budget line) in the top-ten of Top Gear's 2005 survey. I'll look for more.phongn wrote:They may well be, because VW in the US has a reputation for unreliability. Do you have any numbers?Bounty wrote:Are they selling different VW's in Europe and the US ?

The good VW's are optimized for blitzkrieging through Europe, but due to silly laws in the US designed to protect the whining domestic market, we get stuck with the bad VW's
