VW Strikes Again!!: Must See!!
http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/02/22/vw-strikes-again-un-pimp-my-ride-videos/
If you thought Volkswagen's "GTI Fast" TV commercials were funny, wait until you see the company's latest creation. Three new GTI commercials are
now airing with a simple theme: "Unpimp your auto!" An obvious parody of the hit TV series, "Pimp My Ride," the ads feature the German engineers
at VW smashing "pimped"economy cars, and replacing them with the new GTI. Even if you're not a VW fan, you'll probably enjoy these ads. See the
three videos after the jump…
Man...those are absolute gold!!!

Cos of local content restrictions on ads to help protect our tax payer funded TV industry sheltered workshops from much better ads.
For example:
Ours: Bing Lee or those screaming carpet ads
Theirs: This ad.
