BMW Does that Brand-PWNing Thing Again.

bmw-vs-audi.jpg

Although to be fair, this time it was challenged. In southern California, Audi's got a series of billboards out that read, "Your move, BMW." (That's smooth chess talk for "eat my dust, bitch.")

In response, Juggernaut Advertising released some BMW M3 imagery under the headline "Checkmate." Outdoor ad space was purchased in the foreground of Audi's billboards, so at certain angles you can see both challenge and response. See them as they ought to be seen: while driving westbound on Santa Monica Blvd, perched on Beverly Glen in West LA.

Two years ago, BMW backed Jaguar into a corner with a similar submit-to-me! adtitude. It went out shortly after this series of ads, where a string of car brands dropped subtle euphemistic turds all over each other.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.
