Uh. Yeah this is quite ironic right here. The best thing is that VW probably can't even see it and if they do they probably know their target audience can't. That commercial emits very high ego.
Ego Emissions. Is that like the SMUG that was taking over South Park? Man, if we don't have a bad case of Ego Emissions in this country, starting with Donald Trump the Hump and on down.
There is another version of this commercial. The forth megaphone user said in the other version "Because I'm compensating for my shortcomings". It can be found in the vault of Beacon Street Studios, but to obtain it, you'll have to use the URL finder of the trial version of Replay AV 8 to locate the .FLV file's URL.
This was also used in the YTMND about why downvoters downvote. Use these numbers to find it: 492114
If only this weren't a commercial for another car. If only this weren't a commercial for another car. If only this weren't a commercial for another car.
I thought it appropriate to comment on this ad on Father's Day. This is one of the greatest ads of all-time. Take from it what you will... it is so brilliantly crafted... I don't even care if most of you are clueless as to what it means.
yeah, just because you drive a benze or jaguire doesnt mean shit. and if your car defines you, your pathetic anyways. so what if your cars more expensive or faster. big whoop.
hahaha the whole point of the ad was megaphoning out the car window, not the Passat. If everyone is doing it, then i think i'll start. If i get busted by cops, i'm blaming VW... awesome =D
what does this say about the passat, or its drivers? it reminds me of people who buy non-apple mp3 players, so they arent seen to be going with the crowd. they themselves are usually smug for doing so.
not true. People buy volkswagens because they think the car is hip and trendy. Why esle would you buy a good looking car that drives like shit. And yes I have driven a new vw a 2007 jetta manual. If you want a no ego emissions car; which is almost impossible to do, buy a land rover series I. Passat the highest litter emitting vehicle in its class.
Passats are the FASTEST vehicles in their class. R36 300bhp, regular V6 280bhp.
Even a 170 BHP passat does 155.3 mph/250 km/h unrestricted. Maxima, Camry, Accord, Sonnata, Galant, Altima, Fusion, Malibu, Stratus, etc are all much slower.
Who cares if there the fastest. THat just proves that they aren't low ego emitting if they advertise that. Having a fast car adds to your ego if you ask me.
YOU drive like shit and the Passat could beat anything someone the likes of you could put against it. Jerk. Just cause your jealous doesn't mean you have to be rude about it.
hey i looked into buying a passat. I really liked the looks of the car, but after the test driving I was no longer interested. I hated how the steering was to assisted, it didnt feel like I was driving the car. The same goes for the jetta that I test drove. It had the same steering feel and its manual gearbox was horrilbe. And what the hell does speed have to do with anything that i discussed.
does anyone know the song thats in the new passat commercial.. it sounds like bob dylan sings it, but i'm pretty sure it isnt.. I hear the words "white light" over and over but i havnt found any results from it.
Isn't belittling alleged shortcomings as reason for purchasing a status symbol and then touting Passat owners as having low egos counter-intuitive, contradictory, and just plain revolting to anyone else?
It's called a "hipster" ;) they exist solely to enrage the average joe. I secretly laugh at them for it, yet feel dirty for feeling smug towards THEM if you know what I mean. cuz... what does that make ME? :S
Look how defensive some of you people get! It's totally OK to have a rad, vanity-laced car --- just so long as you realize, the rest of us will call a spade, a spade.
VW owns Bentley, Lamboorghini & has 40% interest in Porsche. Totally hyprocritical. But this commercial is hilarious. Especially this uncensored version.
WRONG! Porsche has a 27% interest in Volkswagen. Volkswagen does own Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini, Seat and Skoda. The latter two not luxury but still. Porsche is about to buy VW here soon too
There is nothing psychologically significant in regards to a persons choice of car anymore than it being a preference. That preference can mean MANY MORE things than what the morons/quack psychologists posit.
That being said, its very ignorant to ASSume someone is someway just because they drive a car YOU find unaffordable or unattainable.
This is a very childish premise and Volkswagon lose respect for it.
I generally like VWs (I own a Passat) but these "low ego emission" ads are smug and unappealing. They should focus on the cars' good qualities instead of perceptions of other drivers or whatever..
The people in the VW are just as bad at the people with megaphones; they are saying how "morally superior" and trendy they are without saying anything.
The Volkswagen owners are saying "Because the more I look down on other drivers and their choices in cars, the more I love myself." They're all bad but personally, I hate the Volkswagen people the least. *shrug* Smug, I can understand. Plain all-out douchery is just too painful...ugh. Volkswagen it is, then.
I wrote the automaker to thank them. As an Author of Socio-Psychology, I already knew that assigning emotional content to inanimate objects is 1 sign of emotional illness & how ego-centric addiction/s is more destructive than all other addiction combined! It’s a painted transport machine folks!
I'm not sure of your position. If its a THANK YOU to VW because they are CORRECT, i'll never buy your book and you should get your college tuition refunded. Otherwise, I agree that VW has the mental illness for assigning emotional content to inanimate objects.
This bold commercial is only annoying to those that fit the description of people who try to cover their "shortcomings" by buying certain cars/things. I think these truths should be advertised more!
