    As I said in the other post..... Oh brother

    It's taking the celebrity thing too far if you ask me...
    I am not their market person but I don't think junk like this is going to sell more Spyders.
    Last years commercial showing the Spyder with "regular looking people" was a more realistic approach and is what got me interested in one!
    I guess maybe this commercial is focused at the younger market?

    Extremely Lame. It would be way better if Danica pulled up to a known paparazzi hang out and she starts posing with bike for pictures ( thinking they are interested in her ) and the paparazzi tell her to get out of their shot because she is blocking the bike. She moves and they continue to take pictures of the bike - talking about how awesome it is

    I also mentioned my opinion in a similar post. I have never been a fan of Danica and her spokesperson or racing abilities.

    This commercial seems better than previous ones. As commercials go, its not great, but its not bad. Danica did not come off sounding like a total doofas this time.

    Compare that to her recent appearance where she described the Spyder with wrong information. This commercial is much better, IMO.

    I am not the marketing person for BRP, so am not privy to their internal meetings. I do recommend, a different spokesperson though.

    Don't beat me up to bad, JMHO.

    In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice ... in practice, however, that's just a theory.

    I think she liked saying the line, "when everybody wants a piece of you!" cheesy ain't even the right word for it, but I don't think you can say the other word on this site.

    There were 3 commercial that ran late 2012 and into last year in my area. These are what got me interested in a Spyder.

    Professional, to the point, and just grabbed my interest!





    There was another one that ran in late 2012 but I cannot find it now.


    Again I think they might be trying to grab the younger crowd now? Or am I getting too old

    I just threw up in my mouth.

    I must be getting old. That was the dumbest thing I have ever seen. Maybe not the dumbest, but it ranks right up there.

    If they run this commercial a lot, I'll be embarrassed to ride my Spyder. Hell, it might even carry over to my doo's. Anybody looking to buy three sleds and a trailer?
