All the Super Bowl car commercials you missed while in the bathroom

We were having more fun watching the commercials than the actual game up until the last quarter of last night's Super Bowl XLIII. It seemed all the big, extravagant car commercials were shown around kickoff and the first quarter, but we caught a few good ones throughout the game that shouldn't be missed. Like you, however, we had to break for the bathroom and turn away for more Turducken at times, and so inevitably missed a few car-related Super Bowl commercials. After the break we've assembled every car-related commercial shown during the game last night, so click through and make sure you've ingested them all along with whatever deep fried nonsense you ate. If you want to see ALL of the commercials that were broadcast during the game, visit Fanhouse for its 2009 Super Bowl Commercials page that hosts them all in order and organized by quarter.

My favorite is still Audi's "Chase" and Hyundai's "Angry Bosses".

while Audi's was a fun comercial, shouldn't they tell the word they can take on MB and BMW from this era rather then those from decades ago?
shoot a Hyundai can take on BMW & MB from the 70s/80s/90s - but yet they went straight for the heart adn put up the funniest commercial whith BMW and Lexus heads getting ready to explode

Ligor,
I think you kinda missed it... they were pointing out the fact that each of their competitors has had it's era of being "the cool luxo car that gets used in movie chases" and their time has passed. It's Audi's turn. Anyone shopping this segment knows Audi is a serious competitor... pointing that out would have been a waste of a commercial. Hyundai, however, is trying to move upmarket with the Genesis (at least in perception, if not price) and so for them it made a lot of sense to go that direction.

I think My Favorite on was with with Mrs. Potato head. All she did was put on here angry eyes.lol But the one with DP was fun.
Anyone see this hilarious, but similarly Groundhog-Day-like Commercial?

@Torrent: That was actually filmed up the HWY from my house. I was hoping it was going to show more of the road, but ohwell. It was a great comercial.

@ Shipey
no i knew that's what they wer going for, but if your can is so competitive maybe at the end of the commercial instead of putting an Altima they could have put the '08 5-series/E-class or to be bold include the S8 and put in the S-class ... - oh wait, if they did that it would have shown how the S-class outclass ' the Audi while looking richer and better
so as I saw it they're stil trailing the pack although they are a lot more competitive then they were a decade ago.

@ Lagor
just shut up. NO, you didn't get it the first time around. That's why you are changing your 'point' the second time around. Just give up. You DIDN'T know the message the commercial was sending.
On another note, yes, I agree, the Angry Bosses commercial from Hyundai was great (although I always pronounced it like Hon-die, I guess I've been saying it wrong all these years)

I'm diggin the Genisis commercial. nothing makes my super bowl party better then being trashed and seeing drifting pop up durring commercials. It was sick then, and I still think it's an entertaining commercial.
Hopefully we don't end up like that Sylvester Stalone movie with the Canoli car where they listen to different commercials for radio instead of music.

Can't wait to see the R8 in "Revenge of the Fallen" this summer.

Oh yeah, Autoblog, your videos suck. Are they dimensioned for people on 28.8k? Holy crap it's pixelated.
Swede 12:14PM (2/02/2009)
Oh and people who go out and buy a Toyota Tundra after watching that commercial are officially morons. It made me promise myself never to buy anything Toyota ever.

Two comments to own post. I think that is a record.
"Swede you make a good point." "Thanks Swede"
Swede 2:03PM (2/02/2009)
I agree wholeheartedly.

Great to see a total of one unnamed domestic car (Pontiac Solstice) shown in a semi-positive light in the Bridgestone ad in the "all American" Superbowl. Ahh, the future is bright for the USA.

GM said they would not be advertising for the Superbowl. But my question is- where the F were you?

Abernathy's "perfect car" in the cars.com commercial seemed to be a G6.

Found the rest of the Audi "Chase" story here. Some zingers on the website for sure.

That is the short Hyundi commerical not the long one that aired...
Still think that BMW could care less about the genesis. It is more against MB and Lexus in the market place.
Kinda like the A8, sure it is in the same class as the 7 series and S class, but a different person gets the a8.
