With 188KW of power, the Volkswagen’s Golf R is the fastest Volkswagen ever. To create hype around this awesome vehicle, we hired people to walk around busy public areas with prosthetic mouth pieces that mimicked the physical effects of G-Force. These eye-catching promoters wore branded t-shirts that supported our message and prompted people to test drive the new Golf R. For the price of a quarter-page magazine ad, we created an unusual activation that communicated the New Golf R’s extreme power in an interesting and amusing way.

1 – BLACK SEMI-NEW REVOLVER But you can call it a car in the hands of who speeds. Drive with responsibility. A warning by Ecovia, Ecocataratas and the Federal Highway Police.
2 – CHROME PLATED PISTOL But you can call it a car in the hands of who travels without using a seat belt…
3 – REVOLVER WITH A WOODEN GRIP But you can call it a car in the hands of who doesn´t keep a safe distance…
4 – SEMI-AUTOMATIC PISTOL But you can call it a car in the hands of who drinks…
Perfume: We took the classical cartoon cliche of the “smell hand” and change it into the “L” hand sign that stands for looser. Therefore our character is a looser because he cannot smell the lady’s perfume.
Roses: In this case we used the “smell hand” cliche from the old cartoons as a “going down” gesture. Therefore the actress is down because she cannot smell the flowers sent by the lover/admirer.
Pie: The “smell hand” now comes from a pie and makes fun of the kid who doesn’t notice it, although he is in search for goodies.
