Best of the bunch, but product is still not prominent enough.

"Smell like the nineties"?!

Does that sound incredibly disgusting to anyone else?

This ad says to me that this lovely brand new car will smell like decade-old sweat from a dishevelled and underwashed headbanger.

Eww!

I do believe they are referencing the song 'Smells Like Teen Spirit'.
