WATCH AUDI A4 SKIING IN SAN FRANCISCO COMMERCIAL

Nobody skies in San Francisco. Audi believes that if anybody did ski in San Fran, they’d be doing so with Audi A4 Quattroesque ability. Audi ads are normally terrific, but this German (it is German, right?) commercial sucks. What’s worse, I can’t even completely put my finger on why. The tearing asphalt? The 97% there special effects? Love the car, though.
