I think the Elise is the only car with curves nice enough to share space in that ad.

I've been looking for navigation that doesn't block any of the vents. She may have just turned me into a customer.

Wonder how Alpine feels about an Elise being used in this ad. Seems like a huge blunder on whoever at Lotus authorized the use of an elise in the ad.

What's with the Lotus emblem ahead of the door?
It looks like it was photoshopped in.

If I was to guess....

The ad is done by the same company that handles the Lotus account. Kill two birds with one stone. But ask permission to use the image of the Elise in the ad. Wait, the view does not include any "branding." Hmm... ok.,.. you can use the Elise, but we need to have the Lotus logo on it where it is visible.

It's to assure that people know the car is a Lotus, which means they had to have had approval from Lotus for it.

When a company doesn't have approval, they often debadge the car, hence all the MB and BMW in porn with the front badges removed.

I would be shocked, from a business standpoint, if Alpine didn't say something after seeing this. Randy, you're dead on. I know that the marketing company has JVC as one of their only other clients. Maybe it's good for their company but doesn't help the relationship Lotus has with Alpine.

You know what I love about this... There are probably more than 95% men on this site but a female comes up with the porn reference! Very nice!!!

I like the attention to detail you put into your pornography viewing!
