Default New Lamborghini Ad.

This would not get past our sensors I would imagine!!

The car is for donuts, picking up chicks, speeding, drifting.

Makes me want to buy one! Only if I had about $500,000. I do agree with the above post I think it would go against Fords wider marketing strategy of boring everyone to death while waiting to actually catch a glimpse of their car in a add.

Awesome, one can only dream!


FPV should look into doing something similar.
Obviously if they released anything like the lambo add you would have all the cardigan wearing prius drivers chucking a wobbly because it condones using our cars the they are built to be driven....... but make something like the add and show what the FPV's can do...

I doubt that add was made for TV. The average Joe wouldn't be able to afford one, so why bother marketing to them?

Have to disagree. It will sell more dollars worth of merchandise than fords total advertising budget for the next ten years

If you took notice of the location it seemed to be Miami or possibly even Beverly Hills, two very affluent and cash ready areas of the U.S. and those "average Joes" could afford two of each and still have change left over. Keep in mind that in the U.S they would be worth less than half what they are here, somewhere between 200K and 250K.

Ye I love the Anti Boredom aSsistant as well as the Get Into All Clubs Function and dare I forget the Phone Number Collecting Set


FPV need to do something similar but set it on a racetrack, this way they could show the track potential (if there actually is any) of the new models at the same time keep the wowsers at bay by not showing it done on our roads but on a purpose built track. They could have a slogan something like "Now that's how it's done............Our way", show the car drifting arund a few corners, maybe even bring the Drif6 out for a play, show the quarter mile stomper potential and even the braking abilities being of a standard ready to race.

with that lambo Reventon or how ever you spell it, i think only 20 were being made at a cost of 2.4m or somthing i think it was. INSANE! but the thingis so menacing. Scare the crap out anyone flying past at night(literally flying :P it was designed with cues from the F-117 stealth bomber, even the dash can be changed to look like a planes heads up interface

The simple fact that they are filming in one of the most populated parts of America with hardly any people around show that this isn’t a cheap ad.

How much does it cost to close a US freeway for the purpose of filming?
