You might have missed it due to a beverage break. Or the only other possibility I can think of is an emergency bathroom dash.

No diesels or W123s or W126's?

Not enough time in a superbowl add to wait for the glow plugs i guess:-)

I like it, but I think the Audi commercial is better. The one with the two escaping the asylum. The 'unlesh the hounds' and a bunch of Afhgan hounds come running. And the Kenny G. To funny.
P. Diddy and Chrysler with Emminem. Kind of a turn off, as I don't relate to the rap/hip hop culture.

Yes I have to say that I did laugh at the hounds one

Someone pointed something out to me about the use of P. Diddy was probably Mercedes getting back at Audi for their entire "New Luxury" theme. (Basically saying that Mercedes-Benz owners don't live old fashioned lifestyles in old mansions) Personally I thought his presence was not good for the commercial.

The green ponton was a 180D and there was a 123 there but apparently didn't make it into the commercial. Check out the MB Classics Center Facebook page.
