LOL. Audi is missing a 2006 A3

I have seen about 3 ads on the TV regarding this red missing 2006 A3. At first, I thought it was just an ad, but I went on their web site and they truly are missing an A3. Must be something special for them to be advertising on TV for it.

Anyone know anything more about it?

Yeah true. Kind of like those new Mini commercials. They're funny as hell.

At least the mini commercials were intriguing, the A3 commercial is stale.

I was talking about this last night with my brother and his friend. I knew it was just a marketing scheme. The counterfeit mini's are hilarious!

The A3 ad is lame unless there's some sort of contest associated with it to win the "missing" A3 if you find it.

That would be sweet. They park a few A3s randomly in the US and give it to you if you call the number and report that you found one. That'd be all over the news if they did that.

But yeah I'd have to give it to Audi and Mini for creative commercials. At least it isn't every other car commercial out there where they have either people having a "fun lifestyle" around a car or a car randomly driving around with some voiceover.

They got us talking about it. Very creative marketing if you ask me.

A shit lit on fire by {insert pop diva here} can also get us talking, what is your point? lol.

Talking does not translate into a targeted attraction for the car or sales.

LOL.
