Last night I watched the Super Bowl, not so much that I had a rooting interest in either of these East coast teams although I did make a friendly wager with my pop on the Giants just to make things more fun. It was an entertaining game and of course, as you know, the Giants did in fact beat the Patriots to become 2011/12 world champions. The other reason for watching, of course, were the commercials--which are sometimes better than the game.
This particular one for the Fiat 500 made me stop in my tracks with my jaw dropped much like the guy in the commercial...if you seen it, you probably know what I mean. Not just because of the stunning woman, Romanian model Catrinel Menghia, or the fact she didnt speak a word of English in the entire commercial. But it was also the colors that caught my eye...I have, from day one, the utmost confidence my airplane, in a black and red paint scheme is going to be one sexy looking gal--but probably not as sexy as Miss Menghia looked in black and red! ;) wowza, nicely done!
And for some useless trivia...here is the translation of what she had to say...
"What are you looking at?! Are you undressing me with your eyes? Poor guy, you cannot help it? Is your heart beating; is your head spinning...Do you feel lost thinking I could be yours forever?"
Hey Ron,
ReplyDeleteMy two boys are big fans of the UK version of "Top Gear" (the auto show). The lead presenter, Jeremy Clarkson, loved the Fiat 500 Abarth. So much so that on our last family trip to Portland, we stopped at the Fiat dealer and test drove the 500 (non Abarth, they aren't here until next month). BAD move. We are now contemplating purchase of an Abarth. In ROSSO (Ferrari Red). And we have the blessing of She Who Must Be Obeyed, who thought it was "cute"
Stay tuned

Very nice...I gotta admit, I didnt even know this car existed until I seen the commercial. "She who must be obeyed..." Love it!! haha
