    One of my sidelines is, as a German client says, "optimizing bullshit English."


    This is an easy fix: call it the White Knight.

    Done.

    Motorcyclists may remember that until 1991, the Dutch suspension component company WP went by its original name of "White Power," so named because the springs were anodized/painted/powder-coated a distinctive white. They went for a discreet name change for the obvious reason when they realized why no one wanted their promo stickers and T-shirts...

    Oh God Damnit. Seriously, we get it. The nazis were bad.
    Besides the "white power" thing was actually started here, by the American nazi Party (which it is sad that they actually exsist), not in Germany. But they are influenced by the nazis ideas. Except I think that they just hate everyone, at least the nazis where some what focused (easy folks its a joke). Germany has tried to move on from the horrors that they inflicted GENERATIONS ago, it will be nice when the rest of the world can do the same. You don't hear a bunch of crap about what we did to the Indians... I mean Native Americans, every time someone talks about the U.S.. And that is a sweet car by the way.

    I'm going to get called racist for this. WHO FREAKING CARES?! The only way we're eveing to stop racism is to stop talking about it. Every time something like this comes up, or some movie is portrayed as racist, we gotta sit there and point fingers and screama and cry. Then we have stupid black history month, and all that other crap, with freaking reverend Jackson and the like talking about nothing but racism.


    If we would just stop talking about it, stop highlighting it, maybe it would go away.

    Bulletproof German Engineering + Way much power + Genocide = WWIII.


    And this time they've bought Rolls, so no more Merlins and Spitfires. Crap.

    Who cares? Do any of you REALLY think the tuning shop employees are racist? If so, I doubt they'd be so obvious in their choice of naming the car. I think the name is actually fitting, since the car is obviously white and powerful.


    The real question is: would you all be bitching if the name of the car was Black Power?

    Realising the potential embarrassment, the car was resprayed and relaunched.


    The music for the ads came from the teenage duo whose name matched the new colour.


    Yes, it was quite an honour for Prussian Blue.

    I'm pretty sure WHITE POWER Audi just hates itself. Just don't tell it that, or it'll drive off a bridge.
