The ad was very slick and I've heard from the local dealer that they sell every one of the diesel BMW's they can get.

The Benz was at least harder to identify than the Volvo, they gave that smoke belching Volvo a lot of air time in that commercial, and it was easily identifiable.

As a side note it was exaggerated quite a bit. I've never seen a Volvo or MB put out that much smoke and certainly the engine noises were dubbed over to make it worse than it was in reality. The BMW 2.4 was a good motor but I've seen vids of those not running all that well.

Personally I thought it was hilarious.
