V-Dub

So, because I <3 the new Volkswagon "Unpimp my auto" commercials... here they are;

Mike, and his tricked out 'Vette: youtube.com/watch?v=51vdQqv8WKM
Jason, and his '98 whachamacallit: youtube.com/watch?v=TDVxPaSyuV8
Trey, and his riiiiiiide: youtube.com/watch?v=q9ZyXkllaMU

These commercials are just hilarious. From the expressions of the German dude, to the reactions of the newly un-pimped auto owners, plus hearing "Ve just dropped it like itz hooot" in a bad German accent... It's awesome.


[bonus] A real messed-up, German VW commercial: youtube.com/watch?v=ePZzKt7kKjI

I saw one commercial yesterday and my first thought was:

Shit, they're stealing my Mr. Figaro gimmick!! Well plus the German part

Figaro even said "Drop it like its hot" and i wrote that earlier this week damnit!

Seriously though, they are pretty funny commercials

And yeah, somehow i doubt VW marketers are scouring internet e-feds to steal my ideas

Figaro's commentary during the Emergence:Evo show was roxoring.

And, no. These commercials have been on air for a few weeks now.

Haha, glad you liked the commentary I let him loose more then usual. I figure since i wanted to keep the commentary short, i should compensate by making him a bit more over the top. Plus, his commentary and Clyde's reactions are basically the things keeping me nly entertained as I write the shows

Ahh, so the commercials have been around for a bit. I only caught one yesterday and found it deliciously absurd
