I think they got the BMW part right. I don't, however, believe Audi drivers can claim a higher moral ground.

Dumb. Not well done.

I very nearly was in a head-on collision today with a 911 in a PARKING LOT. Me going about 3 MPH heading towards the street when 911 comes into the lot at 40+ MPH expecting me not to be there and use my space as his lane. Thank God for Porsche brakes. I can only imagine the stories the cops would have told had we wrecked.

Icing is 911 guy gives me the stink eye like it's all my fault.

Porsche...errrr....911...drivers are all dicks.

I am a BMW Driver and I would never do that...in fact I have stopped and helped two ladies who were struggling with a flat on the highway in the past two years...not all BMW Drivers are D-Bags

Our Family Truckster is a BMW -- I always tell the wife that we're trying to change the reputation of BMW drivers. Slowly. Sadly here in Chicago, there's more than a grain of truth in the BMW stereotype.

What do companies want from their ads? People to talk about it and generate 'buzz'. Well - us talking about it goes to show it was a good ad!

Besides - they aren't just selling a car. They are selling a lifestyle. Great ad.
