haha awesome... Cant say I have seen it.
The add blitz on SBS is still going, but still no Falcon adds here... There are usually 3 or 4 in a row, different models.

Still its good to see finally the product is being shown and the adds do appear to be very good.

Hows this possible? Ford are crap at marketing...and want to kill of the falcon...

Yeah, but everyone else who releases a new product does it straight away to generate sales, not we'll see if it sells and only advertise it after it bombs. Great marketing for sure.

But its good to see they finally have, despite it being 6 months too late.

I can see what you are doing there... very clever.

But on topic. Very good ad. Simple and to the point.

[TC200six]

I saw this before as an online pop-up ad. Was the first and only time I saw it before

[csv8]

Yes but that's the ad. first time I have seen it. on tv

[mik]

Not before time.

[XtRmn8]

I like the new Ford ads, nice a straight to the point.

It will make people realise that Ford has the product and hopefully get them to ford site and dealers to find out more.

[gtfpv]

i seen that add too , and my jaw dropped , i actually thought to myself , i should lease one of those .

[tapeworm]

That's a good ad, never seen it before. I like the new Ford ads too. I know dad's taken notice of the new Focus ad's, his considering one.

[Smoke Pursuit]

Very good!!

[XTBlown]

It's about time they started advertising this great car!

[vztrt]

Hope it leads to more Falcon sales.

[FERG_51]

Great add, hope to see it now more often.

[P6LTD351]

Good stuff. As it's only 15 seconds long, this should be put on rotation and shoved down people's throats. Bang the for buck here for sure.

Agreed. Might make people dig into what EcoBoost is, and why it makes Mother Nature hug you.

I actually saw it watching a TV show replay on the net. And a side note, I can't believe how many ads they now playing to watch TV shows on the net. They have closed that loop hole!! But it is good to hear they aired it during the Sunday nights which I think costs big dollars?

[Fiesta_Man69]

Great.

But....

How many months has the EB been on sale? How many people have bought Camrys in that time when maybe they could have been tempted into a better, bigger, superior, faster, more efficient local product IF only they'd known it existed?

Flood the 6pm time slot Ford. You've got the product. Tell the people.

DAMMED IF THEY DO OR DAMMED IF THEY DONT

get over the sooky sooky lalah crap and be happy that ford are doing something about it now better late than never. than letting it die ???

lets hope that it works and we see some good results

[Mr Blonde]

Sadly Fiesta, it seems people are still too sold on the idea that hybrids are the eco wave of the future...if Ford had tacked a regenerative braking system onto the EB to power the lights or something, maybe they could've flogged the "Hybrid" concept too!

At the same time Toyota's pushing the locally-produced angle for the Camry, and government fleets are playing (or paying) right into their hands...

[Dash_XR]

Is it just me or does that ad essentially tell you nothing?

A non Ford person probably wouldn't even know it's a new engine, it comes across as just some special thing they have done to save fuel and they've called it ecoboost.

At least give some economy figures or introduce it as "The all new ecoboost engine"

My thoughts exactly. I didn't want to post a negative response to this thread and cop a flaming, but I have to admit I'm not a fan of the ad.

Yeah it tells you nothing important about the car.

Look at it this way, if you didn't know much/anything about the EB Falcon (and aren't a member of these forums!) what specifically about the ad would draw you to the EB Falcon and make you want to test drive or buy it?
And what new information do you now know about it?

[csv8]

I only saw the ad on Channel 7 News,,not again during the evening , girl buying a Fiesta and a guy with twins buying a Focus...are heavily advertised. But, its a start.......

[69Mach1]

Nearly choked on my beer when I saw the Ecoboost Falcon ad......bout time

[csv8]

Saw it again, tonite, during Supernatural !!!

[hawker]

I think it's a step in the right direction, but have to agree they're not pushing the engine as much as they could be. But hey, it's good Ford adversiting!

Plus it's all about fuel economy now.

[stang65]

Was on during the Bond movie on 7mate awesome well done, hope the sales start rolling in.
