Definitely appeals to men ages around 45 and getting to know their inner child. Nice concept and I see the appeal, however, the name itself kinda get a odd connotation ( I believe I don't have to explain myself ). Over-all good concept and hits their Key market. Great execution!!!
Set the advert in 1985, follow the same format, he takes the business card, puts it in his pocket. Fast forward to now, he has the porsche , drives past the showroom in the current model, smile from the driver and the last shot is not of the car but of the old business card which he has had in his wallet all these years.
Jameswren, this is what I thought was going to happen when I first started watching... it would have been a much better story! This advert is nice, but what you described, and what I thought was going to happen, would have been a hundred times more effective :-)
i can still remember my first ride in a 911 ...it was red with "whale tail" we went around a 35 mph corner at 78 mph & the tires broke- loose a little ...what a ride it was for me at age 19 back in 1983....
wow! this ad is brilliant. it makes u feel like i want one! even tho i dont like porches that much. its really inspiring.. i love the last part "i see u in about 20 years"
Its so american but thats why it works. Its is the american dream, defined by a german car, which is odd but it works so well. I want to one day make ads this good.
That was good. If only every Porsche salesman was like that. I got yelled at by a salesman for opening a car in the showroom with my brother when we were 12 and 13. We weren't even disrespectful or noisy when we were there...just dreaming. Asshole salesman shattered that dream.
i was expecting him to shit on the seat or summin. ha ha. if its the purest expression of who we are, then thats the type of thing that we should out on space shuttles, to identify the human race. lol
sorry, i have no Bentely :P a family member however,
this commercial is sow beautifull , it takes you in higher environments. a porsche is still a class appart. This is a real spotscar and it is payable ...

I was 10 years old and I went on holiday travelling america we were in the french quarter in new orleans. A ferrari drove past and the whole street stopped and aplauded. 16 years later I bought a silver 993 carerra which I kept and 3 years after that a Ferrari 355 spider. You cannot underestimate the feeling these cars give you or the prestige to drive them.
computer consultancy etc, someone told me a simple thing when I was a boy starting working life set the correct expectation and deliver apply it to your working life. Thats what I did.
