Agree. Great, however.

Like your username says: we are all advertising addicts. I think we can not expect consumers to understand this without a tagline! Nice visual concept btw...

For a balloon the trouble is to blow up and, in this case, the inner armor is useless.
Smart balloon?

I don't really get what the insight here is... The car does not look fragile like a balloon. It looks pretty tough. If the car looked like a beanbag I would see the connection.
