I just got my latest issue of Autoweek in the mail and almost died laughing. VW has the greatest marketing campaign in the world right now.

here is a scan:



The Speedometer is a peeloff sticker to place over the real speedometer in order to trick the "naysayer" of speed into thinking you are barely doing 20mph instead of say....100mph.

Genious!!!!

I am totally blown away by their creativity. Pure Genius. By the way I just wanted to say that I saw my first commercial featuring the un-pimp my ride strategy on television today. I've watched it on the internet, but it is nice to know that everyone is watching these harious shows as well.

I fricking love these cars. :thumbsup:

Yeah I have a Package 1 DSG UG....I'll see if I can't "borrow" some more of these ads from my local Barnes and Noble. I'll try them on something else, and if they are easy to remove, I'll take a pic of it on my ride. lol....

some of the guys at the dealerships think their gimicks were stupid....but they caught most of our attention...and usually know to refer the GTI w/ the fast...so they get my thumbs up on the marketing aspect

The add campaign this time around was absolutely hysterical. Those import tuner/ricer commercials almost made me wet myself, and the 'My Fast' rabbit was really good too.
 
They had a similar add for a passat,

the ad had a cut out key that you set on the floor.
when someone asks to drive your car you say that you locked yourself out so they cant drive
