Clean Charlie Sheen FIAT's Superbowl Ad - Part II?

An excellent part II....

Here is the original ad that ran over the superbowl....

Fiat USA has some new marketing gurus from the looks of things, because their latest commercial is worth a million times more than any Jennifer Loper booty shaking and singing. Again, the Fiat ad campaign focuses on the hottest car they’ve got right now, the Abarth version of the little cinquecento.

The 2012 Fiat 500 Abarth was revealed last year as a US model. It’s got a tuned 1.4-liter turbo that puts out 160 horsepower, a lower and stiffer suspention, twin exhaust tips that roar like a sportscar’s and a cool body kit.During this year’s Super Bowl, the 2012 Fiat 500 Abarth created quite a stir with a commercial that featured the sexy Romanian model Catrinel Menghia, whispering Italian provocation in the ear of a hapless passerby.

The services of the beautiful Catrinel were once again needed for a commercial, but this time she’s not the main protagonist. The commercial centers around Charly Sheen, as he is hooning about in the hallways of his deluxe home.

With the help of a friend who specializes in celebrity news and gossip, we can interpret the plot of this ad. You see, before Sheen was dropped from ‘Two and a Half Men’, CBS and Warner Bros tried forcing him to go into a form of ‘house arrest’ and stay off drogs. Hence the name “Clean Sheen”.

We just hope that the beautiful Catrinel knows better than to mix with bad boys like him in her real life... for her sake.

Honda Accord ad resonates with 99ers, pokes Lexus

Either Honda or its marketing agency find the Holiday red-bow intolerable for the new Honda Accord ad. Patrick Warburton, who plays the spokesman in Happy Honda Days Television ad, knocks the red bow off a Honda concluding that potential Honda customers don't need it unless they are millionaires who can give a car as a gift to a loved one.

"Are you a millionaire? No? Well then you probably don't give cars to people as presents," says Warburton (see the video of the ad below), who is a known voice in the commercial and advertising world.

The message may well resonate with the Occupy Wall Street protesters, who call themselves the 99ers. These are people who may not give cars as presents, but may need one for themselves. Thus, neither they nor the Honda marketers need the red bow used by Lexus marketers.

Honda Accord is the highest ranked midsize car in JD Power's 2011 Initial Quality Study. In this category it's the only car and the award recipient which which got the highest ranking in overall quality, powertrain quality, body and interior quality as well as in features & accessories quality categories.
