That's more like it, but wait, advertising does not help promote or sell cars right ?

If you google Tara moss and Ford Mustang you’ll see that they have made a series of ads together

You will have the Nanny Staters foaming at the mouth in convulsions, because it shows a car speeding with a noisy exhaust.
It will be forced off the air when 2 of them complain.

Ford should have "Burnout mode" enabled on new Mustangs as well.

Ford themselves literally poked fun at "new regulations at the time which prohibited car advertisements from depicting speeding or other kinds of dangerous driving". Imagine the complaints back then if people had the same kind of access to the internet as they do now.

Great ad, it's got a Mad Max feel to the setting, you hear actual muscle car exhaust note, get to see actual acceleration, and Tara Moss being the driver is a good surprise - shows the car's appeal way beyond the greying older fella image.
Well done Ford, your advertising is good! And well done too for keeping a RWD V8 after local closure, now there's Mustang and then daylight...

& here's a Ford ad that did it all really well, from back in the day
1) shows target customer 2) shows the strong selling features of the product 3) shows the product as dynamic and desirable. Ie, shows the car handling, manual shifting, corners, etc 4) adds a bit of New Order, always good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDaLxN5FIjE sure beats fingers walking over a landscape, oh how far they fell...

I finally saw this advert the other day, on YT - not having a telly.
What actually struck me first, was how "twitchy" the car looked as it raced towards the camera. |
