Acura Marketing is doing their best.
I have to say, I like their current campaign.

Fast forward to:
1:10 - 1960's postmodern gingerbread house, but one hesitates to call it a house
and
2:00 - double vented, quad chambered chestnut roaster ... the chestnut, she's a fickle beast.

The concept of oversaving? The Season of Reason Sales Event? Driven by Reason Sales Event?
I have to say, this is the reason Acura = FAIL.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Pathetic doesn't even begin to describe the failure of their ad campaign.

Wow, I couldn't even make it through the whole video

Terrible, absolutely terrible

This kind of nonsense from Acura and Honda just gives me more passion to hate them.

Well,
I'm glad I wasted at least a portion of your time.![Thumb Up](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

I also like the local Toyota dealer commercials in the style of "PLEASE TRY MY PRODUCT!" learn computers by CD tutorial commercials.

The concept of saving by buying the less desirable and cheaper product is a very old concept, despite the advertising spin.
btw - I think the "Soul" hamster commercials are good.

Darn that chestnut... a fickle beeyotch...
ha ha.
I really don't think commercials sell cars anyway. For something that's $10K, no one wakes up, sees a commerical and goes "holy crud... I need to get me one of those..."

Acura commercials are all B.S b/c they try to pawn off "advance" and "technology" and they are behind EVERYONE. They are even behind GM, Ford, Hyundai etc in some areas.
Notice they rarely show the front ends, always the rears and if it is the front 9 times out of 10 the cars are silver. This is a clear message, WE ARE ASHAMED OF OUR FACE. Imagine a Benz, BMW, Lexus commercial or ad where the front isn't shown.
As for Toyota I usually dislike their ads, many are annoying.
