I've been told any advertisement agency can make good commercials...now, the spell has been broken! Idon't know whose idea was to make a film like this, but CONGRATULATIONS!
Well Audi is growing. They outsold Mercedes in the first quarter for 2010, and though Mercedes has caught up, Audi is introducing some new models that are sure to steal away sales from BMW and Mercedes.
did anyone noticed that they didnt compare their car with that lexus the old couple has? its like a commercial for lexus for that part.... did they forget to show that the old couple was happy after seeing an Audi was driven by??? wow i have such good eyes...
You can tell who the market leaders are, because the followers put the leaders cars in their own ads - Audi = follower. Growing fast is easy to do when you haven't been selling many cars. If you've sold one in year 1, and two in year 2 then you've grown 100% big deal...
this drives me crazy. can some one please please tell me who the girl at 0:09 is? I just recently saw her in one movie but i could not remember... argh this drives me crazy
another pathetic Audi propaganda, shouldn't you guys just built better cars... I know the facts and I know how audi is inferior to BMW and Mercedes in all, I mean ALL sectors.....at least they know what people buys their cars, people that are dumm enough to get impressed by this vid...
FYI: at elast the post 2005 models look good, before they looked like shit
i drove a ferrari f430 after the audi and immediantly wanted the adi back, ferrari wasnt that fun on the road, more track tool than b-road, the audi though was well better lyk llf :D
i'm in love with the girl at 0:10! i've seen her in so many commercials over the last few years. thera-flu, OFF!, a couple jewery commercials, and a commercial with william shatner. i think she is so sexy, hot and pretty. love her eyes too. i do prefer her shorter hairstyle though. but she still looks hot with any hairstyle. anyone know her name?
I used to think Audis were really dull but now theyre not. Well the A4 looks pretty boring but they're starting to get interesting. BMWs are still alright, Lexus are now boring except for the IS-F and the LF-A and Mercedes...well just too boring.
Pretty presumptions to say the R8, replaces the Ferrari stigma. We get it Audi, those LED lights have done wonders for you, but bring something good to the table before proclaiming to be better than Ferrari.
I'm renewing my car in nearest future. And I definitely won't go with Audi. Why? Just because this commercial! It's dirty! Pretty much all of Audi's commercials are. Seems like the only way to advertise for them is by putting shit on other brands. That's wrong. And that is probably the main reason I wouldn't buy any of these, maybe really good, cars.
@jericho123456 totally agree!! Never been a fan of Audis. If I didn't know a thing about cars I would watch this commercial and actually fall for it, then I'd go out and try to buy one. Their cars are alright but way too many problems and costs just as much/even more to maintain than a MB. Their cars aren't even all that appealing, although like someone else already stated, their "LED lights have done wonders."
Wel I say Audi did a great job on all their cars, it just some douche saying "A Ferrari 85 288 gto would shit on a 4.2 R8" personally i like them no matter wat, but since idk if 85 will outrun a 4.2 v8, thats why i said they came out with a v10 r8, i bet in real life the 4.2 and the 5.2 will sound SO SEXY
Well Audi is the only car company out there that make normal cars and supercars. They also own a company that only make supercars (Lamborghini) They make the best engine in each respective class. I mean how is BMW and Merc fight off these engines, you got the 2.0Turbo which come from 1.8T which has one 4 cylinder engine of the year since 1998 then 3.0 supercharged then the best V8 of them all the 4.2 and if you fancy bit more how about a Lambo 5.2 V10 not enough? 5.2 V10 twin turbo? why not?
@phantomloita buddy you don't know what the fuck you are talking.. probably because you don't know about the v10 that is used in the m5 &m6 and that has wan an award for the best engine of the year in 2005 !! and probably because BMW gets 200 hp out of a 2 litre DISEL and you should know that is audi that is fighting BMW because when BMW was making the m3 csl that can run the nurbegring faster than most supercars audi was, just like it is now, a shit box. BMW is the godfather
@jonnyD76 haha r u serious? phantomloita is right, "everyone" hails Audi as the "engine King"...cmon! it wasnt until the RS4 dropped with the 4.2 V8 that they were Crowned "engine king" by POPULAR DEMAND! 2DAY - Audi is definitely and i mean DEFINITELY an competitor 2 BMW & MERC... @ the end of the day... it all comes down to what you as the consumer wants... i must mention consumer choice is relative... unless ur a "pro" consumer - even then "we" still listen to pop - demand - IMO!!! lol
@jonnyD76 - Audi engine portfolio is massive at the least... however, Audi is owned by the VW group - who owns over 5 auto makers... hence the ample engine portfolio... as a consumer you really can not compare engines - you compare the car, response, feel and feedback... when those engine awards are handed out - NO CONSUMER is EVER involved! industry review boards and segmentation review committees grants these awards...BMW has ALWAYS been the gold standard...however, they no longer stand alone
@jonnyD76 - BTW - if you got the CASH to drive any of the BMW or the AUDI or the MERC ''engines" then your a major player/ consumer!!! bcuz no matter your/my/anyone opinion on "best" engine WE ALL MUST agree these cars are not freaking CHEAP!!! This is a very very competitive and pricey segment!
I've seen this commercial a few times tonight. And well, I can't make heads or tails out of it. The general gist that I get is that these people were duped by luxury car manufacturers into believing that a luxury car is what they need, but what they REALLY need is a DIFFERENT luxury car--according to a different luxury... car manufacturer.....or something. It seems like the tagline should read, "Audi: Allow us to brainwash you." I don't get it at all.
It is definitely funny like shit that an automaker totally based on marketing buzz instead of real technology or real design or real quality or real good drivability (apart from R8 maybe) is doing an advertisement like this...
Yes we have our engines in front of the front axle instead of over o behind it, but we will persuade people, that it won't make our cars understeer. And if it would, that ESP and AWD will solve it :-D MUHEHE...
Wow. Audi. Audi CLEARLY knows their cars arnt as good as the competiton because theyre using OLD cars. wheres the W204? or the new RX? and never can you REALLY compare Audi to Ferrari. they have been making nothing but super cars for years. Audi has one.
whoa, i had to re watch to catch that ES... i missed tht. and yes, the 3er is newer... and (IMO) looks pretty good in the commercial... but yeh, my bad... lol
You're only allowed to show these commercials in North America! They'd be great in the UK but our stupid Copyright rules say companies aren't allowed to include other companies in their advertisements or something like that. Like how they blur the "Coca-Cola" signs in American Idol when shown in the UK
I am a former owner of a Q7 and a current owner of an Audi R8 and a BMW 135i. To each his own but I can tell you that Audi is one amazing car company. They are on a roll and out for blood!
most rational car commercial that shows the different demographics of car buyers, while it is hard to be unique in the car market and non conformist like a Morgan , Tesla, Hearse, old school hot rod, Tucker, Hudson, and other odd cars and brands
Because for same/similar features n specifications a Lexus is almost always substantially cheaper than a Merc/BMW/Audi because the brand costs less. And why not compare in global context instead of US.
Interesting thoughts NixKah. But I would contest to your "substantially cheaper" comment. Cheaper perhaps, but substantially? I doubt that.
As to why not comparing in the global context, because your comment was made against a commercial aired in North America, not the rest of the globe. Besides, in case you haven't noticed, the RX350 was featured in the commercial. That SUV/CUV is still the leading the pack in that segment (i.e. Q5).
@decee2k sorry4using wrong word as i couldn't find a proper1.wut i meant by"substantially"was that the way/amount Lexus is cheaper is diferent from"normal"price differences among corresponding models of Merc/BMW/Audi.Its cheaper not bcuz it just happens2b the cheapest when prices do not coincide,but rather 4some deeper reasons(mainly lower brand value in my view).In a sense 1 could even say Lexus is essentially a bit less luxurious than those3 hence AudiVSLexus would b a false/unfair comparison.
