Dodge goes the flash mob route in San Diego - Click above to watch video after the jump

The concept of a flash mob sounds like such an event could potentially be terribly annoying. In practice (and as anyone who watches Modern Family would know...), though, these flash mobs often wind up being rather entertaining. Everyone involved looks to be enjoying themselves, and the crowd gets a free show.

Naturally, every now and then, a corporation will grab onto any new trend that has the chance to go viral, and catching a flash mob on video sounds like a good place to start.

Dodge decided to get into the improv mob game, and a full scale dance session broke out at San Diego's Rock & Roll Marathon. The mobsters wore Dodge t-shirts, while a new Charger and Durango lurk quietly in the parking lot behind them. How'd it all shake it out? Click past the jump for the video. Let it rock, Dodge Boys.

Peugeot's Nude in a Scarf campaign - Click above for a high-res image gallery

In a cheeky bit of naked ambition, French automaker Peugeot inundated London's morning commuters today with a pool of 308 'nude' actors who appeared to only be wearing scarves. What was the reason for the au natural display? Why, to celebrate the arrival of the company's latest topless model, the 308 Coupe Cabriolet.

Upon closer inspection, it turns out that the flesh flash mob was actually outfitted in form-fitting body-colored suits, thus preventing the local authorities getting rude with the nudes.

Interestingly, the 308CC has actually been on offer since the beginning of the month, but we can understand Peugeot's reluctance to send out its birthday suit troops on April Fools' Day, lest everyone get a rise out of this odd bit of viral *ahem* marketing. In any case, check out some wacky videos documenting the event and the press release after the jump.
