I'm not a fan of Toyota using the exact same shots for different stories of their new ad campaign... but I am a fan of the general concept of this advertisement.
Almost Genius.

Swagger Wagon
Interesting perspective Toyota. Win one for the accelerator stick.
Sudden Acceleration
Toyota – your not the first. Sudden acceleration syndrome has made some news lately. But lets not forget this isn’t anything new. Automobile Magazine takes a look back at the early years of this phenomena.
Audi sales plummeted from a peak of 74,061 units in 1985 to only 12,283 sales by 1991.
I doubt Toyota’s sales will plummet like Audi’s did in the late 80s… as this is merely a small blip on the radar for the worlds largest automobile maker.
Back on the quattro side of things – If only we could do something to slow the growth of Audi today. I’m tired of seeing my brand placed into the hands of so many incapable drivers. What happened to BMW being the ultimate driving machine?
