Worst video ever.

Compare to the one GM did:

Oh jesus that's corny. It sounds like some half-assed christian rock song.

GM's video rocked though.

Ive seen local furniture store commercials feel less amateurish and uncomfortable. Id bet each of the band members are on MB's executive...and they all drive manly-mauve SLK's

I'd like to see Jaguar's video. It would be to "Champagne Supernova" by Oasis. The "where were you while we were getting high" line could be a reference to the British-Leyland years.

The GM video was fairly awesome for what appears to be an internal corporate whack-off film. The M/B video made me uncomfortable. Seems like someone actually designed the GM vid and the M/B thing was just thrown together by some committee somewhere.

Yep, that M-B video is lame. GM's is amazing, though.

That sucked!. Song sounded like a backdrop to an 80's Rocky movie. Makes me wanna go out and barf on a Benz.

Benzo video no work anymore

GM video pretty sweet.... makes me proud to.....

Actually, no GM's at the moment.....

MB video still works, but you may have to click on it and view the high res version.

GM's video said "we are going back to our proud heritage and design history"; M-B's video was pretty much begging GM to sodomize them.

I found M-B's video to be barely watchable with the sound muted.

I liked GM's video, and it's all the more poignant seeing how the decline has continued.

I wish i could be more optimistic, but I'm having a hard time seeing the turnaround.

The Mercedes video is terrible. The GM video is depressing.

They are both 3 minutes too long.
