Ad Critic has a better copy of this commercial. It is currently in their top twenty commercials.

>>I*m trying to find a particular spot (who isn*t?) - it*s an ad for Verizon SuperPages that features some guys who buy an old Yugo, fix it up, and race it in NASCAR. I*ve been told that it*s currently airing only on the East Coast, but I*m not positive.



The spot you*re asking about is from kirshenbaum bond + partners. The only place where i*ve seen this ad is on the kbp portfolio page at agency compile in sucky real video format.



www.agencycompile.com/directory/sample.asp?agency_id=834&sample_id=5296




If the direct link doesn*t work, go to

www.agencycompile.com

and click on creative showcase - then click on kirshenbaum*s link, then yugo (you may need to register)



And Verizon SuperPages isn*t just advertising on the east coast - not nationally yet, but probably in select metro markets, as I*ve seen them air in Minneapolis.

Ah... just looked at your home page in your profile... David! How are you? Did your Kia spot air yet?



(P.S. My contact was in NYC, so we know the "Yugo" spot is airing in multiple markets)

Then we worked together; that*s why I was looking for it, too. grin



I actually got a report from a friend of mine that he saw it about a week ago, but his report was sort of sketchy, so I was looking for confirmation. Good to hear!

Howdy, all!

Any help would be appreciated - thanks!
