Ya know? You missed the correlation between Audi's Green Police ad and all the previous creepy ads from the brief Electric Car era, where car companies used bizarre, unpleasant ads to "Unsell" a great group of zippy autos that would have helped prevent the current global urgency. Not to mention a new war. Audi's hefty diesel SUV is not really *that* green and this creepy ad is shaped perfectly to target middle-aged white men and get them to jerk that knee on something. This ad will only attract people who actually hate environmental care, don’t understand the correlation between environmental abuse and illegal immigration or increased taxes, but still wanting to grab a tax break. This smells like anti-green propaganda, not sales. The target is Teabaggers. Audi and all the rest could trot electric cars off the factory rack within months, which would get over 3 times the mileage. The lack of engine vibration in battery-run autos would also prevent considerable wear and tear on the vehicle and the ensuing repair bills we have to pay. <br><br>Personally, I have to think that fewer replacement part sales have to affect how totally auto and oil are married to each other. But paying to fix your SUV doesn't make you happy or rich. <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/07/25/paul.commentary/" rel="nofollow">http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/07/25/paul.commentary/</a> Gag, this nasty chunky ad is still making the rounds… Ya know?

Lighten up people. Audi can't be blamed for recycling a name and giving it a better meaning. Besides, the ads are all about recycling. Please don't dump other people's rights to have fun just because you don't like it. Bringing up the "Nazi" card is getting pretty old. Those Nazis used toilet paper too. Does that mean I won't use toilet paper anymore? We all live in a world of whiners. Lighten up people. Audi can't be blamed for recycling a name and giving it a better meaning.

The marketing head should be canned for not doing his homework. German companies can never be too careful. As for Brad's response, you are right it was 70 years ago, but it was also linked to the mass extermination of millions. There are people that are sensitive to these issues and basically consider it offensive and in poor taste to create a marketing campaign, by a German company that can be linked to this atrocity, whether intentional or unintentional.
