When we saw the Super Bowl ad for Audi tonight (which was by far, the favorite of mine during the Super Bowl), I thought "What an interesting ad, as marketing people have managed to turn Jason Statham's car-centric roles in movies to being a spokesman for a car advertisement". In each one of the switches, Statham is driving what is considered mid-sized sedan. He goes from the venerable Mercedes Benz 300SEL to the BMW 535, opting to skip a Lexus ES300 (essentially a plush rebadged Camry) to finally end up in an modern Audi A6.
Of course, on viewing the ad a second time, I think the hidden message there is that Audi A6s are great cars to steal.
