That just proves how uncultured we are or the governing bodies think we are. I see the ad a think of art and so do most of the population of the world. Banning it just proves that we are uncultured and dont have the capacity to appreciate such a campaign and that the only thing we take from it is that we will go and spin and burn our tyres. Go and look at all car ads, most and especially the aussie ads campaigns are built around the speed. But no thinks that it will promote speed and dangerous driving.

Wake up ASB and take you head out of your arse!!!

I didn’t really see a ‘hoon’ side of the advert. The music from what I can remember was pretty subdue, but more so, I was thinking Jackson Pollock

Hahaha what a typical Aussie reaction. Whilst we are casual folks, we do live in fear and hypocrisy, no kidding! Oh and I’m sure events like the hoonfest V8 Holden vs Ford races have nothing detrimental except enriching world civilization!

1 idiotic viewer reported the ad, and the monkeys at the Advertising Board Beaural decided to pull it off. GG

Wait ! Can’t one argue that the commercial promotes safely driftng in a closed area without other people ?

And couldn’t I say that the Z4 is sliding on ice ? Hence no tire smoke ?

I live in Victoria and i woundered were the ads had gone.
I loved watching them and they are fantastic markating ads, one of the best iv seen.
To think that they are baned for the ridiculas reasons as to why….makes me very anoyed!
Their are new anti-hoon laws being placed and the old ones being toughened up.
Its insain that thev gone this far though….guess thats labor for you….

That is what you get when the government goes ape shit.
Same shit will happen in the USA soon, they will screw us over with immigration, carbon taxation, and give every dollar to the stinking central bankers for them to screw us over.

From the country that brought us Beyond 2000. Seems a little ridiculous now, doesn’t it. I am also very sensitive to what is broadcast these days, but seriously, this ad IS about art. It never brought up any thoughts of; “Oeee, now I want to make my wheels loose traction on a street where other people share it with me…”

RIDICULOUS!
