We’ve
had a spate of retro-look cars lately, now, perhaps inevitably, comes retro-look
car advertising.

Claiming that you can’t make history if you don’t already have one, Audi of
America is launching a new advertising campaign with the slogan ‘Great
then. Great now.’ based on the company’s two decades of motorsport
success with quattro four-wheel-drive technology.


Corporate
Profile –


Audi


The new campaign consists of a television commercial that will be broadcast
on national terrestial and cable stations, two print advertisements for national
lifestyle magazines and automotive publications, and a radio commercial.

The ads will run until the end of the year.

The TV commercial features Michele Mouton, the French racing driver and first
woman to win the World Rally Championship, saying, "I remember 20 years
ago, Audi turned the racing world upside down. First, by introducing a race
car with all-wheel drive and second, by having a woman drive it."
