I have to put my foot down here and say enough is enough. The Toyota/Lexus ads by Saatchi are just one disaster after another. Come on, have some class, keep the level of this blog at a certain level, don’t post random shit people send you.

Jaggo ….. we post all kinds of levels of work. The idea is to create a dialogue about the work.

Some of our most commented posts are the ones with the most controversial work.

AdBlogArabia includes whatever is sent to us or is ‘out there’ and we can link to it.

Anyway, I’ll post a round of ‘top quality’ ads next week … OK?

There is a difference between controversial work and bad work.
This is just plain bad work.

Well, I see it as over-doing it, Aurion is not a fast car, or rather not that fast, personaly I think Toyota does not picture its brand line of Toyota cars as fast cars, rather family-friendly, econmic, while having some fangs at speed, but such ad would imply Aurion is built for speed, which I beg to differ.

Aside from that, the layout is nice, I’d belive the ad if it was for the latest alfa romeo or aston martin

Just my 2 fils !

FYI. Saatchi & Saatchi Kuwait is owned by the Toyota/Lexus dealer… check ads of the world blog for truly inspiring ads.
