BMW a.dvert: Dissing competitors

[Centurion]

Quite clever one but a bit cocky considering the fierce competition the M3 is facing.

I'm sure Audi's happy with the free publicity!

Are you sure this is about Audi?

IMO this ad addresses MB C63 AMG - with a new grille configuration: the MB star in a grille.

I don't know EnI, Audi's front grill design has changed much more dramatically. I honestly don't see a noteable change with the C-Class.

Re: BMW ad: Dissing Audi???

Maybe they are talking about both MB and Audi two flies in one smack

They are talking about changing grille by performance vs non-performance variants of specific models, don't you think.

Audi S4 / RS4 doesn't have much different grille from the regular A4 variants. Same case with E92 3er.

The only car where performance (AMG) / or Sport variants (Avantgarde) have different grille is the new C-class.


Yet I find this ad very stupid. Why? Because - how ironically - M3 sedan is coming with a different fascia from regular 3er models (OK, technically the kidney grille will be more similar after FL, but still the fascia is different due the headlight shape).

Re: BMW ad: Dissing competitors

For me it is directly against the C63, because Audi's grill changed long ago and there is already an RS4 with this grille. The new RS4 is not coming soon, and will have the same kind of grille than the old one.

One can't say from Audi that they change the grill: it is done already since what, 2 years. So it is not that new, it is now the normal trademark grille of Audi.

On the contrary for the C, this a brand new change and the upcoming C63 will be the first with it. No other Mercedes sedan had the star in the grille!

M3, feel the cold wind of change?

Now that I have thought about it, it's the C-class they are mocking. Trash talking is never good and it's seem like BMW are a bit over confident with the M3.

 

[coolraoul]

Yeah clear, and the C63 has been praised by every testers, when the M3 didn't seemed to be as good as the e46...

It is also a mark that they recognize the C63 as a real competitor for their M3, which was imo not the case withe the C55... Times are changing...

BM has always made such trash adverts. I can remember of one that had marked me, also against Mercedes of course:

You see a Mercedes Actros transporting half a dozen of brand new Beemers.
And then it is written something like "still, there is one way for a Mercedes to give driving pleasure"....

Excellent, no other word. Trash, but so funny!!
