Wink Do you like this advert?

hey all,

What do you think of this advertisement for the New Vw?

This was on tv some time ago over here in the Uk...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8nq8...mputer%20build

I like the music

Can you get the music featured in this advert or not?

Its entertaining but I don't see it as being very effective at selling the car.

It's impressive what creative editing can do now-a-days, but as David M sez, it doesn't make me want to go buy a car....

You can save the file using a Firefox extension: "Videodownloader" - Vids from youtube require a seperate viewer, which I've never bothered to get or install. Also, if you have a Sound Blaster card, you can always use the "Record What You Hear" applet.

One of the more useless car commercials I have seen.

I thought it was kinda strange and scary. I have no idea what singing in the rain had to do with a car.
