Benz AMG Commercial


What do you think of the new Benz AMG commercial. I never would have expected Mercedes Benz to put out a national TV commercial like this promoting burnouts and drifting.

Re: Benz AMG Commercial

I was out to breakfast last weekend and saw a white one parked on the street. It looked nice, but white? I couldn't see doing white with a car like that.

Re: Benz AMG Commercial

I saw this commercial the other night and I have been talking about it for days! Finally a car commercial that appeals to real car enthusiasts! I love it! Not to mention the car is beautiful!

Re: Benz AMG Commercial

I guess it's how you view things, but IMO I think MB hit their target audience with this commercial. It's no different than commercials like the Nissan Altima doing a 360 or Audi's "parallel parking". There are plenty of things we see in car commercials that we know we're not supposed to do and we should already know from common sense the car wasn't meant for that kind of abuse.

Re: Benz AMG Commercial

The new C-Classes are very nice cars. I think the front end looks really mean.
My cousin picked up one with pretty much every options except for the 450hp motor
I should be detailing it in the next month or two. It already has a lot of swirls

What is common sense? Every car is meant for some abuse...isn't that why the manufacturer offers a warranty?

Re: Benz AMG Commercial

my father will actually be receiving one of the first C63's for this year in just a few weeks. I will be sure to post up a detail on it!

Re: Benz AMG Commercial

"Closed course, professional driver, do not attempt..." I'm guessing it said something like that on the bottom of the commercial. But that is one sweet looking Benz.

Must be due to the bad press the c class is receiving. Every comparison i read the reviewers think it is too slow.
