Asian American Commercial Watch: Volkswagen

Volkswagen’s latest entertaining ad campaign is their “Sign Then Drive” event where you can get a Jetta, CC, or Tiguan for “practically just your signature.” I’ve actually test driven a Lexus with an Asian American car saleswoman before, so I was happy to see this commercial. [EDITORS NOTE: If this was an inappropriate blog, I would clearly make a crass comment about being grateful that the Asian women are selling the cars and not driving them. But that would be inappropriate. Hey-yo!]

Contrast this to this other Volkswagen ad, the woman appears to be a cute, quiet, demure trophy girlfriend as her boyfriend is checking out the car. You can view the ad after the jump: What do you think?

About John

I'm a Taiwanese-American and was born & raised in Western Massachusetts, went to college in upstate New York, worked in Connecticut, went to grad school in North Carolina and then moved out to the Bay Area in 1999 and have been living here ever since - love the weather and almost everything about the area (except the high cost of housing...)
