I tried to watch it, got bored and watched Bob Seger's Turn the Page instead. Frankly, as with most viral campaigns, it has only been a few days and it is already played out.
Finally watched it, can I have the 3 min of my life back please.
Very much in the genre of the foolish Hammer and Coop that that died an inglorious death. Those horrible memories have come flooding back. I need therapy now.
I'm still convinced the entire MINI v. Porsche challenge will wreak of the same cheesy and "hip" nature as these videos. I envision cute little things like shopping cart obstacles, a MPG battle, and a small-car parking spot challenge rather than a true timed track event. Some cheesy, staged setup so the MINI can "win".
Like many of you, I'd love to think that MINI has switched courses and will be turning towards their motorsport roots, but videos like this just reinforce the "cute" persona that they've been broadcasting all along.
I never saw any of the Rocky movies, so the joke of the video is lost on me. The best part was when that bearded guy fell off his bike. And damn, that Porsche is sexy.
Just a thought. I believe that MINI only said that they were going to bring an "S". Is it possible that they have the WRC car ready and that is what they plan to bring?
