If it is the same one we have, it has a distinct European twang to it. An Asian car company should have an Asian accent, don't you think ?

I want my own narrator. James Earl Jones would be cool, and Vincent Price (RIP) on Halloween...

Is that the voice on that commercial that aired a few years back, with a woman wearing a swan on her head? And she was glad to have a sunroof so her head-swan could fit?
I hated that guy. And what the hell was the deal with the head-swan? |

The voice of James Earl Jones could sell some cars!

I was thinking more like Morgan Freeman....yeah, Freeman could sell cars.
Or how about George Foreman? Sell them MB's just like a CHAMP! Just like them grills. The radio spots I hate are the Jag ones, all them British pronunciations, like "Jag-U-wah" and "ELL-ek-tronic". Good thing they don't use the word "AL-oo-min-yim" instead of the correct pronunciation "Ah-LOO-min-um". They basicially ruined beer, they could at least get their own language correct! Gilly

My parents mute the commercials. I hate that. Some comercials are pretty good and funny, IMHO. When I'm watching a recorded show, I fast forward through them.

The European actor who was in Wing Commander and did a lot of voice overs for video games, namely Baldurs Gate II as Irenicus if anyone is as weird as me and knows what I'm talking about, would be ideal for a premium euro-car ad. Otherwise, I enjoy the Lexus ads. I also like the tunes in the Infinity ads "there's an Infinity for everyone". Very cool.
The guy that irritated me and sounded condescending was the dude on the Dodge ads a while back, like less than a year. That guy got on my nerves. |
