I saw a new Mustang commercial during survivor tonight. It was split with a Focus so it wasn't very long. A lady grabs a mic and places it behind the exhaust. They then rev the engine a few times and say "power".

Why on earth Ford uses the chicks "fight song" just makes me so confused.

Ytf is that used for a car commercial.

Totally lame compared to this, one of the best car ads in ages, IMO:

"Sell the sizzle not the steak" kind of lame commercial. Oh well, I guess we can all be thankful that they used the GT sounds!

That commercial is an insult to mustang society. A car like that shouldn't need a mic to sound powerful, it should come from the stock mufflers and blow the skirt of the lady. Just saying. It makes the car look weak!

I saw that and instantly thought false advertising! The first thing I did 2 days after buying mine was an exhaust because stock it sounded just like a damn Focus... The factory exhaust is laughable on the S550 even the dealer commented they don't sound anything like previous models.

:clap2: You should send that in to Ford as a suggestion. A bit sexist (sorry ladies), but sexism isn't dead yet in advertising.

My first thought was, "SOB, I pay $600 as an advertising fee and this is what they come up with?!"

Waited all year to see a Mustang commercial. All ten seconds of it.

I would assume, since the ladies make up a large portion of the buying public of this car, they used a GT with a woman show casing the sound of the GT to try and sway more female buyers to the GT vs. V6/EcoBoost.

I like the commercial, but I am a very open-minded individual when it comes to things. My wife likes it too. That proves my theory :D

Thank you. As a Brit I haven't seen that one before.

I'm sure you realize where the inspiration came from? For me, quite possibly the most evocative piece of TV ever! (it was 1984 and I was a 13 year old car-mad lad!) I still watch Miami Vice on DVD now! :headbang:

I haven't seen it yet, but I can say I have seen more women in S550 GTs than I have dudes.

I think as much as we don't appreciate the commercial it is probably the most effective advertising in the real world. The dodge commercial is great for enthusiasts that already have brand loyalty or have made up their mind what they want.

yeah that dodge commercial is really good but they're still a dodge. It's definitely a commercial that makes you feel good and give you that awesome feeling while cruising...mostly because of Phil Collins and the best cop/detective show in history, Miami Vice.

the new mustang commercial is just stupid, sorry but it's a basic yellow gt... no pp?? and it's just dumb. we all rip that exhaust off anyways as it ain't that loud in real life lol.
