what do you guys think?

thenewrick · 07-10-2013, 02:08 PM

Super sleazy for sure and I'm positive they will be forced to remove it

Amini77 · 07-10-2013, 02:11 PM

Pointless..even if it were to grab attention to the billboard no one is looking at the ad, just the mannequin

Ptuh Ptuh · 07-10-2013, 02:29 PM

that mannequin has nothing to do with the billboard.

negative 2 e-props

Stupid

Raja Ventureshield · 07-10-2013, 03:01 PM

stoopid

AzureHaze · 07-10-2013, 04:32 PM

Sheree is hot hot hot.

N8N · 07-10-2013, 04:44 PM

That's actually kind of funny. Better than the ads my local dealer runs which make me feel a little less cool about driving a BMW. Tried to find the one that really offended me on YouTube but it ain't there... basically guy shows up to a club with his girl, girl spots douchey looking guy in a red E93, girl leaves with douche. Way to perpetuate a whole mess of stereotypes there...

edirtaynine · 07-10-2013, 05:08 PM

lame.

wilbur_the_goose · 07-10-2013, 05:20 PM

I'm amazed BMW let the local dealer do this. Really dumb.

Spensaur · 07-10-2013, 05:23 PM

Pretty unique hahahaha

Allaboutthehype · 07-10-2013, 05:39 PM

Durrrrrr lol I wouldn't be surprised if someones comes up with a get rich quick scheme and tries to sue BMW over it. People these days..

thisoneE90 · 07-10-2013, 07:17 PM

uhhh

Tiago@VRSF · 07-10-2013, 08:12 PM

Did anyone else close the link after having to watch the commercial?

BrazilianBimmer · 07-10-2013, 08:19 PM

Seen this on yahoo today. I can't believe that people would think that's a kid up there ready to fall...

E90Flossin · 07-10-2013, 08:48 PM

Creative and catches attention. Just what they wanted on a billboard. smart!

Dylanize · 07-10-2013, 10:00 PM

LOL! One of the best trolls I've ever seen! Props to that dealership, they are trolling hundreds of people a day!

bdbahh · 07-10-2013, 11:39 PM

The dealership is getting the exact attention they want. Whether or not it's seen as "good" or whatever...they're getting free publicity.

Built My Way · 07-11-2013, 05:58 AM

A bride and groom couple would make more sense... or even a same sex couple. That would stir up some emotion.

JAL0988 · 07-11-2013, 09:34 AM

Who cares, it's working as an attention-getter.
