Default Commercials

Has anyone else seen a ton of those Fiesta commercials where in each different one they show a Fiesta in just one colour and then have it driving on that colour background? They always compare it to the Yaris, Fit, and Mazda 2. The one with the Yellow Blaze hatch mentions that you cant get push-button start or leather trimmed seats in the competition. The Blue Flam sedan mentions how safe it is, and the Red Candy hatch mentions the fuel efficiency. These are the only three i've seen, but I swear in the last week I see them every 5 minutes. They have some nice sounding music playing in the background...

The ones I've seen only feature/show a Lime Squeeze HB. Really Ford ... there are other colors in your palette - and body styles. How about a Fiesta rainbow commercial showing at least the palette array?

The only commercial for the fiesta I've seen in the US was when it first debuted. They're running one for the ford sales event now that shows a white SEL and a lime SES along with a bunch of other fords.

I personally think they are harming their sales by just showing the lime green,I think they are after a niche market. But that's only my opinion, to each his own.
It appears Ford is trying to sell to the young crowd, makes sense.

I think that they are playing to the Top Gear watching crowd. Trying to use Jeremy Clarkson's positive and funny review of the car to sell more cars.

Sure worked for me.

the only Fiesta commercial that I remember seeing on television was this
The First All New 2011 Ford Fiesta Commercial - YouTube
that and the Jimmy Kimmel show.
