I thought I couldn't hate Ford any more...
 
And then I watched this commercial - http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/09/...-ford-tv-spot/

Whatever their marketing department is smoking must be some wicked crazy sh!t. Passing a Carrera GT? Um, how about never.

Ford - Stupid Moves.

Don't get your panties in a bunch just because the commercial wasnt realistic enough for you :). I actually thought it was a decent commercial, and the carrera was just getting outa the crazy americans way

i can't help it. these thongs always ride up so fast. but think about it - any real car enthusiast would laugh at that commercial. if mitsubishi did that with the evo i would find it just as idiotic. unless, of course, the car could actually back it up (which neither can).

ford seems to be taking the edison approach to their marketing. and that is a BOLD MOVE.

actually i kind of like that commercial.

i can't find a speed limit i like here in america either.

I agree. Not a bad commercial. The 1 liners were cool.

My thing is is that the commercial promotes speeding

the 'ring doesnt have a speed limit. the 'bahn has speed limits on certain parts. {thumbup} crazy Americans that thought this shat up...hahha!! good job :usflag:

Realistically the one ford that could match up against the GT is the GT40 but whatever... I still thought that commercial was dopeness. Hell I'd be lookin at the shelby if not for the Philly winters
