Who knew the Germans had such a sense of humor?





OK, it's probably an American ad agency. We're known for being snarky.

In Tampa we have had a long rivalry between two liquor store chains. One is Total Beer and Wine, the other is ABC Wine and Spirits. In one part of town they are literally no more than a block apart, and Total Beer and Wine just happened to have a full size advertising billboard RIGHT ABOVE their store.

ABC Wine and Spirits rented the billboard and plastered the following on it along with their logo: "BAIT AND SWITCH PRICING IS TOTALLY BENEATH US."

^ that's funny. :rofl:

As far as the BMW/Audi thing, the Audi dealer walked right into that one. One of the rules of advertising (or even on the Internet) is to consider what your response would be if someone threw the same comment at you. They obviously didn't think that one out too well.

I wish I had taken a picture of it when it was still there. In fact, If I'm not mistaken ABC still has an ad on there but it's something different now.

It appears as though the Audi ad in the above photo is actually Audi corporate, where-as the other ad appears to be the local BMW dealer's way of cleverly capitalizing on Audi's lack of forethought.

I've seen the audi ad locally, so it's national.

I personally would purchase a new foreign car, just not a Asian one, nor a German one. I would buy a S80 or S8-R Volvo or a Saab 9.3 AERO, or Jaguar XJ or XK.
