You know the commecials I am talking about, “the new VW Jetta ads which feature people having boring conversations while driving that are suddenly interrupted by a violent crash,” that end of up with unharmed normal folks saying, “oh shit” or “holy shit.”
These ads move me and I am not the only one. Bold is rewarded here, “requests for brochures and price quotes on the vehicles have risen since the ads began appearingon April 10.” Via AdJab & AdRant.
Holy shit!

hey, found your site through the BBC thing.
Those VW ads are pretty good. i’m living in Taiwan so I don’t ever see commercials from home. It’s good to follow what everyone is watching.
cheers!

Welcome, Spencer. Yes, I admire good commercials whenever I see them. Are you an expat or are you from Taiwan?
I’m an expat from Detroit. I love all of your posts on automotive stuff. Went to the Gumball 3000 site and just finished watching the dude on the Ducati. Cool!
Yeah, I hope to not be yet another one of those boring, “all I talk about is Citizen Journalism” kind of guys — yawn! You can even learn about Nicole Richie and Lindsay Lohan here.
