| Burnout Bags: Mercedes-Benz AMG Keeps Rubber Handy for High-Fashion Crowd |
Feb 3rd, 2014 |
|
It’s pretty common knowledge in this country that men don’t wear purses, but we might be willing to make an exception and sling a handbag over our shoulder—it’s European, guys!—if it were like Mercedes-Benz AMG’s “Burnout” collection of totes. Why let our funky flag fly? Because AMG’s Burnout bags are almost exactly what you think [...]

| Slow Down Your Morning With a Slow-Mo Video of Porsche’s Le Mans Pit Crew Practicing |
Feb 3rd, 2014 |
|
Porsche’s returning to Le Mans this year with the still-camouflaged 919 hybrid prototype racer, and the brand is doing everything it can to prepare for battle with Audi. That means Porsche is scrutinizing its entire program, including pit stops. It’s a bit cliché, but races really can be won and lost in the pits, so [...]

| Lying in Wait? Maserati Plugs Ghibli Sedan in Whispered, Sneaky “Strike” Super Bowl Ad |
Feb 3rd, 2014 |
|
Think Maserati was messing around when it revealed plans to seriously amp up its global sales presence? Things should have looked pretty serious after the Italian automaker recently introduced not only a new Quattroporte, but the smaller and less-expensve Ghibli, too. Well, America, consider yourself served, because Maserati’s surprise Super Bowl ad (embedded below) not [...]

| 2015 Kia K900 Super Bowl Ad Stars Morpheus from The Matrix, Is Excellent [The Ad Section] |
Feb 2nd, 2014 |
|
If you’re a “value” brand and want to add a luxury model to your lineup, you’ve got your work cut out for you. Just ask Volkswagen. Well, that didn’t keep Hyundai from launching its Lexus LS—baiting Equus sedan, and it’s not keeping Kia from introducing its much-anticipated 2015 K900. But a good launch needs a [...]

| Great Ad, But Will Hyundai’s Super Bowl Commercial for the 2015 Genesis Actually Sell Cars? [The Ad Section] |
Feb 2nd, 2014 |
|
Generally speaking, I like Hyundai’s commercials. They’re mildly entertaining, often communicate meaningful selling points, and Jeff Bridges makes everything sound both hip and safe and the same time. Importantly, they invariably make the cars look great, especially the paint. It’s amazing to me how many car companies don’t pay enough attention to that, but Hyundai [...]

| 2015 Chevy Silverado HD Super Bowl Commercial: A Man and His Bull [The Ad Section] |
Feb 2nd, 2014 |

Ha! Am I the only one out there who thinks this commercial is hilarious? I am? OK, so it’s just me, but I couldn’t believe my eyes and ears when this commercial began to unfold. By now we’re familiar with the Silverado commercial template: Set to the brand anthem (Will Hoge’s “Strong”), we see the [...]
