Audi R8: "The Godfather"
We open on a beautiful mansion, panning into an elderly man sleeping. He sees something on his hands, rips the sheets back! The horror! It's the "head" of his luxury car! This homage to one of the most gruesome and classic scenes ever (horse head in bed scene in The Godfather...you've seen this right?) is pretty clever. The cut to the Audi R8 sitting in his driveway looking sinister, works well. Who knew a luxury car could have such a dark side?

Saw one the other day.
Did any of you notice how small these cars are? And you can sill easily fit 1.5 Murcielagos into an R8...

This commercial was, by far, my favorite.

No one else got this one but me. In fact I had to explain it to everyone else.

This one was definitely hit or miss. I appreciated it. Sadly I was with a group of people that mostly missed it. Anyone see the Puppy Bowl...?

Exactly AC. Same thing happened at my house, I was the only one in the room that got this one. Sad...

What made this one for me was that they actually got Alex Rocco for it.
