I felt cheated...

some blonde chick pulled up next to me in one of those Acura TSX's rolled down her window and said "I just want you to know that I think you have the sexiest car ever".
I was too in awe of the momment to have anything brilliant to say other than "uhhh ok thanks".

Hi,

I hear you. I sorta have some doubts. First I thought it may be a mangusta, but these are front-engined. Maybe an MGF? Or the little Skoda car. There just aren't that many mid-engine two-seaters out there...

This is an advertisement from back home (I know, Norwegians so-called humor is a bit twisted).

That would never fly in the US... them darn Europeans get all the good commercials!


And yes, I've seen Porsche commercials here. One for the Cayenne, and one, I think in 2005 for the 987. I remember, because it was a red one with the top down, and featured that amazing engine sound we all love!

That's a great one... Patrick Stewart was THE best voice for such a great advert. I certainly bought into it!
