Every year during the Superbowl we can all agree with the fact that the commercials are sometimes just as intense as some of the highlight plays of the game. Most notably, car commercials make up a large portion of these “spectacular” 30 second to 1 minute spots where vehicle manufacturers dump-out millions of dollars in hopes to captivate a large audience with their latest and greatest vehicle. Lexus, who has never had a presence in the lineup of multi-million dollar Superbowl commercials, will enter into the arena with their all-new 2013 Lexus GS in a 30-second spot. As an early kick-off, Lexus has provided an exclusive teaser of the commercial below.
The Cars of Mercedes-Benz’s ‘Welcome’ Ad

When it comes to post-1965 American iron, I’ll put my ability to to name a year, make and model up against the best of them. It’s the legacy of growing up turning wrenches in the family garage, and I still identify people more by what they drive than by their names. Bizarre, perhaps, but it works for me. Unfortunately, I lack the same skill when it comes to identifying vintage German cars. Sure, we had a few customers who owned Mercedes sedans and roadsters, but not nearly as many as those who drove American or Japanese cars. When Mercedes ran their “Welcome” Super Bowl ad, most of the cars in it were a mystery to me, and probably to you as well. The video below should help to clear up some of that mystery. Read more
Super Bowl Car Ads: I’d Score It Kia 1, Chevy 0

Let’s face it: if your team isn’t playing in the Super Bowl, half the game’s entertainment value is going to come from the ads. Every single advertiser pulls out all the stops to film a budget-blowing spot for the Super Bowl, because it ensures they’ll get their product in front of millions of beer and hot-wing fueled television viewers. Short of staging your own halftime “wardrobe malfunction”, there’s no better way to build brand awareness than with a Super Bowl ad that stands above the rest. Read more

Every year millions of us sit in front of the TV to witness not only a great Super Bowl game, but great commercials. One series of commercials that is expected to be among the best this year comes from the folks at Volkswagen. The teaser Volkswagen commercial appropriately named ‘The Force’ features a pint-sized Darth Vader who uses the Force when he discovers the new 2012 Passat. This one won’t disappoint. Enjoy!
These Are Audi Commercials?

Audi is going head-to-head with Mercedes-Benz in their latest commercials. First they gave us the “Goodnight” TV spot, which mocked Mercedes owners as old and stodgy, more concerned with image than with content. Their latest ads take that message one step farther, occasionally crossing the line of what most Audi customers would consider to be good taste. The best part? These videos are just teasers for the actual ads, which will air during the Superbowl. I dare you to watch them and not smile, although I’ll warn you that they contain some graphic content. In the first, entitled “Startled Smart” (a spoof of the “Scared Straight” concept), high risk youth get a picture of life inside a luxury prison. If you don’t want to see a man kiss a stuffed armadillo, and if implied caviar-jar-licking or cheese fondling puts you off, look elsewhere. Read more
