Mercedes is being extremely disingenuous (or lyin’-ass, in American) in one of their more recent television ads. They show their cars driving really fast, recklessly, skidding all over the place, etc. Then they have the nerve to say this: “It’s the most fun you can legally have!” Um, I feel I must point out that all of the driving we’ve just been watching is not legal anywhere in the United States, at least not where you can take your Mercedes. So basically, this ad is a big lie. You really might as well advertise cocaine this way; it’s still not legal, no matter what you say or show.
