Volkswagen is pushing a min-van concept they call Caddy. It sports a boxy rear with a mini-van nose. Those who need to carpool their shorties to the pool, band lessons, and just about any activity that’s supposed to get your kid ahead will appreciate it’s roomy interior. I’m sort of shocked, though, that Cadillac isn’t [...]

For those of you who commute to work every day, you might want to rethink whether living in the country and working in the city is worth the price of your own life.

If you put an ad exec in a room alone, with no food and water for days, chances are you might end up with an ad campaign similar to the one dreamed up for the Volkswagen Passat. Since selling a car these days involves more than a practical demonstration, you might want to take William [...]
sacredhands on May 21st, 2007The Golden Era of American Cars Beep Beep
Japanese automakers must feel like the roadrunner character these days. American car manufacturers thought they had a lock on selling the American dream of owning a fancy car. Well, those days are over, but thankfully there are plenty of collectors who are willing to show you a nice brochure from the fifties just to remind [...]

Jeep livens up their auto trade shows by using a waterfall as a backdrop. What makes it cool is how the waterfall can spell out words or show graphics. Most excellent!

You have to wonder about a company that tries to be cute at a wife’s expense, especially when the target market for their product is the person they are ridiculing.
Watch this Chrysler ad and be amazed at how cavalier they are with the idea of replacing a husband’s wife of twenty years with “this [...]

In the old days, raindrops kept falling on my head; today it’s Pontiac G6 convertibles. Pop the top, crank the tunes, and think about how miserable your great grandkids’ future will be in the age of global warming unless we elect a new Congress that lives in reality, not the fiction of our President’s alcoholic [...]

sacredhands on Oct 17th, 2006Average Buick Owner 63, So Hey Gen Y, Wanna Party with a MILF?
Ah, the age old question: How do you get a younger generation to buy your product now that it’s associated with an older buyer who bought it when she was younger?
The marketing solution: language. Instead of saying accessory, say “tricked out.” Instead of saying cool tires, say “fat wheels.” Got that, dope boy.
It’s not [...]
sacredhands on Jun 8th, 2006Cadillac Escalade - Hey Baby, Steal My Virginity!
Remember that sexy Super Bowl ad for the Cadillac Escalade? I guess the commercial worked a little too well, because now every car thief in America has their eye and itchy hands on the Escalade. If you hate paying high car insurance premiums, you may want to think twice about buying a Cadillac Escalade, unless [...]

Here’s your assignment: Peugot wants to sell their new model car numbered 207. Their pitch: 207, an intense drive. Intense energy exudes from the strong and muscular lines of the exterior. Your job: develop a commercial that captures that “intense drive.”

Humor has many purposes. It can be used as a sarcastic weapon against your bully friends who may lack the intellect to grasp the nature of your assault. It can be used to sell ice cream from a truck that goes by the name of Good Humor. It can be used to tickle a [...]
sacredhands on Mar 7th, 2006Men, Cars, and Women (Careful in the Curves)
Honestly, men are so predictable. Put a pretty woman next to anything and men will forget the cream and buy the cow, retail. Advertisers are hip to this hypnotic effect, so why should it be any surprise that Matchbox cars has whipped up a little ad campaign that places those itty bitty cars in the [...]

Dodge Ram whipped up a little viral video with a scantily clad woman who shows us her ram tattoo before ramming (get it?) her head on the sink and pulling a piece of porcelin out of her bra. Yeah, that’ll get me to hitch up my pants and head out to my local Dodge dealer.

Cadillac has a sexy new ad for its Escalade. It’s shot in black and white and set in the context of a fashion runway show. Sleek models are initially shown primping before we get to the soft sell: making an association between a man’s fetish for a woman’s foot being applied to the shiny contours [...]
