VW Passat Commercial Commercial: Rocking Out, Air Drums

You have to give it up to VW for the wonderful work they do with their commercials. From the most boring but well built family saloons, they managed to pull amusing ads every single time.
This time, the 2012 Passat sedan takes center stage as its owner decides to rock out and play a little air drums at the intersection. Listening to Rush’s single “Fly by Night” he gets notice for all the right reasons.

The Passat sedan is available in the US with a choice of three engines, the 2.5-liter from $20,845, the TDI clean diesel in SE trim from $26,225 and the V6 from $29,235. It was named Motor Trend car of the year for 2012, and VW seems to think that will get you noticed. It won’t, but rocking out like that will certainly help.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
