That was weird.
I just saw a TSX commercial on TV where the TSX is being chased by two vehicles on some narrow european streets. At some point a chaising van doesn't make the curve and gets stuck. At the end the TSX and the other car reach a dead-end, a cat jumps out of the TSX and runs away, a dog jumps out of the other car and keeps barking.
It was great seeing the TSX taking sharp turns but I missed the point

The slogan in that commercial is "the perfect getaway car". Its a lame commercial but what dont you get?

Nope. They still show it on TV, just not very often.

I missed the part about perfect getaway car.
But still, what's up with the animals driving the cars ? It wasn't cool or funny.
And why at the end does the cat run and the dog just sits there ?
I'm not trying to stir a discussion about animals but that whole thing just didn't make sense to me.

Ya, the commercial is very lame. I hate it.

But the idea is ...

cat vs dog, classic enemies.

dog is chasing cat, cat gets away in TSX. Hence "the perfect getaway car".

so :ghey:

I thinks its also try to compare the cars handling to the gracefulness and quickness of the cat.

Damn Germans, shock therapy ! !
So wach warst du noch nie....means So you were never awake.
Definately gets you !

I guess the point they're trying to make is that you're basically asleep at the wheel and this guy certainly wakes you up as their caffeinated product would.

It's an ad for some Caffeine drink ...similar to Red Bull , I remember seeing it over there last summer.

caffeine is the worst thing when you are driving IMO. I drank a red bull before I did some country driving and my hands jittered the whole time.

That was great! Scared the crap out of my wife (me too, first time). Said I was a jerk for scaring her. Like after 24 years she didn't know that already.
