well done
The visual is very interesting, but the "lost things because I'm on a convertible" has been done a lot, especially the toupe one (See joe la pompe's site)
I understand that visually the poverty looks good and also for the idea to work if they were not poor they wouldn't use the found stuff.
I'm not a political correct police (pretty much the opposite), I was thinking: Showing all this sad poverty helps to sell these expensive Mercedes?
it s a good Ad but i agree with Darkside about the poverty exposed in the image.
Agree with Darkside. This is a new recycled convertible ad, plus poor taste.
+1 DarkSide !!
