Stolen from CNTC:

 

 

Nissan is getting sued down in Brazil over a commercial they created to show how one of their cars is cheaper than a Ford Focus.

 

Now you won't understand what they are saying in the commercial, but pretty much the guys in the white coats are Ford engineers and they are making big money selling an expensive Focus. Is still pretty funny.

 

Though Ford didn't think it was funny and is suing Nissan because of the AD. Naturally Nissan has now stopped showing the AD.

Very nice commercial.

 

But the Tidda (or Versa in Canada) is still a little cheappy car.

 

So is the Focus, if not more so cheappy. Of course I hate Fords, but then again I wouldn't buy a Versa (in the USA too) either.

Hilarious. My Portugese is a tad rusty but....

 

Get sued and watch your video go viral. Somebody or some team in Nissan deserves a big, juicy bonus.

 

 

 

 

Interesting how none of the Ford engineers are black (or mulatto).... Makes you wonder who the target market is. Auto sales have topped records four years in a row in Brazil. There certainly is no confusing the US auto market with the Brazilian one.
