I think it is an interesting strategy. I assume it is a response to the recession, and the fact that even folks who have/had money are/were not spending it. Btw, the tense options are because I am not sure if the recession is over, or whether people's spending habits are returning to 'normal'.
They are not saying the car is good. The market knows that. They are saying 'it's okay to spend your money.' And giving a reason, namely; 'if you don't, someone else will spend it for you'. Nice argument and an interesting mix of rational and emotional reasoning.
I am not sure about the creative, but it certainly conveys the message that it is okay to spend your cash on yourself. And does so in a reasonably fun way. So, cautiously, I think it is well done.
