    is it just me or is this a little inappropriate for the Middle Eastern market?????

    Put one hand over “Are you ready” and the other hand over “Born to be driven” and the body copy and leave the logo there.

    Much better isn’t it?

    Now….why wasn’t it done like this in the first place?

    The idea is ok but, I think the fuse needs to be a little down in the exhaust pipe or you will burn the car. The lighter placement and shadow are wrong it is not in the same level as the car wheels. the font size is too big.
    I think this layout is better in landscape.
    Every car was born to be driven. so i think you do not need that line.

    that is either a small car or a huuuge ass zippo.

    Terrible ad

    well, I feel nothing is wrong with the car and zippo proportions… but here’s a suggestion: as Creative rules said b4: remove the headlines (or at least the second HL), copy, and I’ll remove the zippo itself. Just leave the car with a neat and realistic fuse. isn’t more simple?
