TL-S CL-S Commercials

Why are the TL-S commercials so much better than the CL-S commercials? If i were looking for a car and saw both commercials i would think that the TL-S is a lot cooler than the CL-S

I don't think acura has realized that this car is more attractive to a younger, more aggressive group than what they originally targeted. And if they would come out with some sweeter commercials that could grab an even larger market share.....

Yep, the advertising company does make a difference (some are much better than others) and a company's advertising budget is very important.

Get with the 21st century, advertising is everything.

I agree they need to advertise it as an aggressive sports coupe, not as a car for a 45 year old, no offense to those 45 year old out there like me.

Some of us older Doctors feel quite young. The TLS commercials seem to have used the information that was posted on the board from comments made about the previous limp-dick CL-S commercial.

The Dr. thought the Palm Springs Acura CL-S commercial looked like it was designed and intended for lobotomy patients (or at least Prozac users).

CLS Commercial needs more:

Tach swings to 7000
other cars being sucked off the road by the CLS' rear vortex.

Attention: the closed circuit television monitor of Haldol patients isn't going to cut it any more.

I am 45+ and my CLS made me young again.
When I drive my 1958 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider I feel again 21, that was my age when I bought my Alfa. Certain cars make old men young again. Some women do that to.

The doctor says a CL-S procedure is good for about 15 years in age reduction. (like a face lift for the brain...)

When the doctor is not able to find body replacement parts, a quick drive in the CL-S revives him and sooths the raging beast.

45 years old ---> he hehee Wheeeeeee heeeeee, the doctor is even older, but feels young again
