Wait...is the Ford 2.3L the same block as what was in my Fairmont? That's kinda cool if it is. Not a terribly powerful engine, but sure will last awhile.
Also I'm pondering that Tahoe Hybrid drivetrain in something like an old Bel-Air or Nomad...
That Lancia commercial is genius. Feign global responsibility by using a convenient martyr from a politically irrelevant country. Emotional pull, sales, ta-da.
Now if the Dalai Lama or any one of a hundred or so Chinese dissenters was featured in that commercial they'd have a true hot potato on their hands. Not. a. chance.
I love the very subtle Jalopnik decal on the side of the car. It is a promise from Mercedes to make this car light, pure, simple, and fun. Also, I much prefer this decal to the "Copyright Chris Doane/Brenda Priddy & Company" seen on some cars, and those weird floating KGP Photography chin spoilers.
I dunno. Cars busting through walls is always cool with me. Just needed to change the music to something badass like AC/DC's "Big Gun", and get rid of the narration
They should just shorten the ad by a ton and show them getting out of the cars and the narrator says.
"The Chrysler 300 the car nobel prize winners smarter than you drive."
@Joe Valasek: I know both logical and illogical women (and men for that matter). Most are married or taken. I'll have to think on that one. Funny how we got off the Chrysler/commercial topic.

This is definitely worse than nukes.
PS This is a great resolution by the UN to get her released.

Apparently marketing campaigns too. Here's the identical ad, but featuring the Lancia Delta instead.

Sebring. Compas. Nitro. Caliber.
Chrysler has a history of not thinking.

There's your problem! You're applying logical thinking to an entity that's not logical.
I have the same problem with women.

Want to introduce me to some single ones?

Yup, all the good ones are taken. That's the shame.
Anyways, This is more interesting than doves or whatever that commercial was about.

Ya know, if they are sold without full tanks, it's false advertising.
