i'm a little disturbed by the commercial for the sedan... intellectually, it is quite innovative, but some of the effects are so well done that it seems eerily real but unnatural...

I would like to see Tim Burton do a C coupe commercial. I think the one with the greasy haired guy driving with a piece of paper flying around is bizzare. That one disturbs me.

Great commercial! But the guy with the ears does look a little poncey as he flies into the air like Tinkerbell.

Seriously, it's a funny commercial, better than most.

Hold on to your SIPPY CUPS!!!!!!!!!

He kinda looks like the guy from REM or maybe MB is trying to sell the car to 30-40 something effiminate men.

Not at all. Reminiscent of an early Mickey Mouse cartoon.

Benzo, which commercial are you referring to? I remember seeing that but forgot which car...wasn't that the C-coupe?!
Who is that song by?

ha! i guess i'm in the minority... i voted for the pupils changing.

as for the coupe commercial, i really like it! mainly b/c it has a cool song about courtesy but also b/c the 'greasy haired guy' sort of goes against a stererotypical luxury car owner. - laid back, kinda happy in general, casual (note he is unshaven, and clothes are frumpy). and i find the flying bag kinda poetic. and of course, that epitomizes, for me, the c-coupé

Yes it was the coupe. I love the song. Just thought it didn't do much for the car. Maybe some Japanamation would help.

I just wish we had these adverts in the U.K. so I could have an opinion

ooooh...spooky....how'd that happen my post came up twice!!
anyway I just remembered the last merc ad i saw was the song
"Oh lord wont you buy me a Mercedes-Benz..my friends all have Porches...I must make amends"

I think the best commercial we have here is the currently running E class. The old man and the young girl. She thinks he is Rich and he doesn't have a dime. But he drives an E.

Exactly. Just like me - minus the greasy hair; I bought a pair of clippers. Who needs hair?

I like that commercial as well. I also like the one where the two ladies are talking and it keeps pausing to give you explanations of what they are saying. I can't remember how it goes, but one lady's husband is in jail, and the other one is dating or married to the boy putting groceries in her car. I think it may have been a M Class commercial.

btw - The girls eyes don't bother me as much as the guys ears flapping and raising him up in the air. Overall, I think the effects are cool, but it's not that great of a commercial (but I guess I remember it, and that's what counts?).
