I love car commercials. They're my most favourite. I like the Volkswagen ones the most.

I hate them. I don't like cars in general, in fact, and wish they weren't such a necessary evil. :thumbdown:

Hate them, hate them, hate them. There's a bunch of reasons I hate them, but the biggest ones are their frequency, their annoying music, and the fact that they advertise products and lifestyles that I have no interest in. They're pushing the agenda of a society I feel no connection to.

Not unless they are funny or have some great music that I haven't heard before. Usually with car commercials this isn't the case.

The commercials are okay, but the background music they play in most of them is annoying.

The only current car commercial that gets my attention at all (good or bad) is that damned Land Rover commercial.

The one in which the old guy drives the car over twisty mountain roads, and through tunnels, while that other guy in the sail plane closely follows him in the air-while narrowly avoiding crashing into cliffs. And then both arrive in the same safe meadow at the same time.

No narration. Just dark ominous music until the last moment when a classy old voice over dude with a classy British accent announces something or other about Land Rover.

Diabolically crafted to keep your eyes riveted to the screen because it looks like the glider plane is gonna crash into mountain sides any second. Doesnt sell me on the product. Not even sure what the take away message is supposed to be. But it does get my attention.
