Christiano Cangucu, what exactly was your job? The artdirection is by Jung von Matt/Alster. Photographer Uwe Duettmann...

really? Think they had to put someone in the blank field. Or maybe he invented the idea for slogan. You never know.

Like someone gives a shit about the art direction.
Someone had to insert the copy, right?

I once read that people don't actually admire drivers but solely the cars. translation: that girl staring at you driving a ferrari doesn't care about the person inside.

it's also a bland concept we've seen played out to oblivion.

Ah! Reminds me of good advertising...
Also, perhaps "in sports cars" would've sufficed.

Great adds from MB. No wonder Mercedes Benz is better for all the things others have listed as well as holding value. Sad thing is that Detroit could build a similar quality car or even better, but they don't.

girls don't care about the car.. hey guys you will keep thinking the same and having same results. angela ribeiro.. what happens in Brazil with you girls??
anyway... could a girl by this car or they ask you to be a man? or could a man that doesn't talk about women, sports or cars buy it?
