superbowl commercial w/ c3 - license plate - "the brad"
Just saw this commercial tonight. My wife didn't catch that the car was a C3 (probably b/c I've only owned mine for ~2 months now, and you get a quick glimpse of the headlight lowering and then as he leaves the bar a very quick glimpse of the front quarter of the car). But _I_ recognized it right away, of course, and well... was ashamed of the stereotype.

The guy in the commercial (BRAD) is a total loser.

I assume since Belloc is a C5 owner that he is just poking a little fun at us. ;)

If you are really up to it here is a link to the *Smearnoff* ad. It has a *Realplayer* version that you can barely see the C-3. (By the way... full of pop-ups)

Complete smear campaign!!!!!
