Well, yeah but I think the ad was from '95... Really before the new breed of Hummer was coming on the scene for the "wee *****" crowd. the expression on the Ferrari guy's face (smug even in the case of the overwhelming evidence that he shouldn't be) is what makes that for me.

It's always been my favorite Mini ad (i.e. before MINI existed)... a timeless classic.

Exactly. I just got the MINI so at least MINI owners (who don't go to the Y) might assume differently...

Too bad they'd never show a commercial like that in our puritanical country.
There's some good humor out there! People need to lighten up and quit taking everything so damn seriouisly.
