Too much "Born from Jets" advertising...... Posted by MI-Roger [Email] (#882) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MI-Roger) on Mon, 7 May 2007 09:15:31 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
On the front page of this week's Detroit Auto Scene newspaper is a photograph of a Saab 9-3SS "painted" with pictures of Saab Grippen fighters on its flanks. Part of the Born from Jets advertising campaign.
I tried to find an on-line photo to link to this posting but the site for Detroit Auto Scene is down, the site for the dealership where the car is located (Saab of Lakeside) doesn't have a photo, and the Dealership's owning corporation (Elder Automotive Group) doesn't appear to have a photo either.
I am guessing the car is a 50th anniversary edition that is draped with one of those self clinging advertising skins used on cars as rolling billboards. A lot of light blue color is visible which leads me to the 50th anniversary suspicion.
Maybe it looks good in person, but it is pretty darn ugly in the newspaper photo!
