None of us are mature enough to make a video like that! One of us would have drilled the side of that Audi with the nerf bar of one of the old roundy cars just for the hell of it.

The title of this thread should be "Ugly Audi & cool cars". That Audi is horrible looking, the lines don't really flow well and it looks like it has bags under it's eyes. And I'm with Verbal, the Audi wouldn't have come out unscathed.

Great commercial. Those cars under that lighting ruled. How cool would it be to spend the day on that set?

-----The execution is based on a ‘beauty and the beasts' theme, showing a series of unattractive cars driving chaotically. An R8 Spyder then emerges, weaving through them, before the endline ‘Mirrors, signal, outmanoeuvre' appears.------
HAHAHA!!! Then why didn't they show it among their own Q7, A4, or A6. Sounds like they haven't looked in a mirror themselves! Great commercial. That new Audi reminds me of that Vauxhall that came out not too long ago. |

yeah it got damaged too....bent I beam, tie rods, wishbone, bent the suicide perch and dented head light....and Audi didn't mention it on the cars return
another got sideswiped and another got a fucked wheel and tyre. all the ad showed was how loud, lairy and exciting rods are....and how boring the R8 is!!
