That was great Smiley  Anyone know if they play it on TV?  In the US, there's no way that would fly.  Shame, really.

The Aerocar was even flown by none other than Capt. Slow from Top Gear in his other show.

There was a whole series made by VW. They were never intended for TV, but they were made for viral advertising such as youtube.

Volkswagen banned tv commercial Bollocks


And here is one of my favourites, also not for TV

Best Car Commercial Ever

Ha ha, that second one rocks...

Ikea has a lot of funny ones for viral marketing.  Search "Banned Ikea" on YouTube.

Now that I think about it, it seems mostly European companies are using viral commercials successfully (Ikea, VW, Mercedes off the top of my head).  Not to say US companies don't, but I tell you that nobody has forwarded a link, IMed a link, or set a link as their status for a US company that I've seen recently.
