The "va va voom" button!

The competitive environment of the automotive segment calls for extreme measures in terms of advertising: since it's not always possible to compete on a technical\quality level, the communication mostly revolves around sending an emotional message instead of a purely rational one
A nice example of this choice taken to the extreme is the following video for Renault Clio, where the subtlety of the "emotional" message is discarded in favour of a more explicit "va-va-voom" to demonstrate...well, basically nothing other than "va-va-voom", which can be translated to "generic emotional message"
Still, the complete absence of anything resembling rational value and the whole spectacle created for the AD (being it true or not) grants it a place on the blog

One last tidbit of info: As always in this pseudo-viral videos, the choice of the exact preview frame, is NEVER casual...


...as you can see by the second video, aimed to a different audience but a similar frame! www.tips-fb.com
