You know Audi really got owned. BMW put an answer- checkmate, and then BMW took the stance to Audi's next response: you are done, and this is not even worth a response. Classic.

Funny....But I drive down that stretch of SM blvd almost every day and never once saw those billboards. Do they really think that old antiquated medium of advertising actually works ??? What a waste of money. But, the BMW response was great. What is even more comical is the M3, at substantially less than then R8, is still a better car. I drove an R8 recently and was extremely disappointed in the transmission and power. Audi needs wake up and realize that while their Quattro system makes for a very well handling car…there is no replacement for high hp.

What Luke said rings true--- how often do we really look at billboards? This clearly has gained more fuel thru internet postings and MBW is not the only forum where this billboard competion has been posted.

Check out the clearer version:

You read my mind, silly!

Seems that BMW is making strides since Mr. Bangle made his exit.
