The best VW commercials
I think the VW marketing team should get a raise. I was laughing my a$$ off when I saw these on TV. Making fun of rice rockets is fun.

I love those ads. Too bad the ad guys didn't build the cars. They would be really good cars then.

Crispin Porter and Bugusky from Miami is VW's ad agency. Before being awarded the VW account(without a review), they launched the Mini brand to the US.
They are also responsible for the current Burger King advertising...

Killing the "rice" mobiles is a good look. I am not totally sold on the design because I hate high body panels but they do get an "A" on other parts of the car like FSI, DSG tranny, independent rear suspension and great leather. I wish they had done that in the 80's. VW is going in the right direction but they need to improve the quality and customer service. 'Ze get an "F"' The hip hop part isn't my cup of tea either.

Ja, this should be the new refrain for all:
"It is time to unpimp your ride..."

The VW Polo Terrorist ad is the best, I almost wet myself laughing...
It is not a real VW ad so it is hard to find on the internet but it is out there! Paul
