If some parts between minute 2 and minute 4 sound bad and muffled I'm testing a new UA-cam feature that only mutes the copyrighted song and not the whole audio.
@@zacheryryan6533 it was the band of the song that had the copyright, now I'll have to see if Audi persé wants to copyright this since they deleted it.
I mean, they would have flown in the R18 and all the rally cars from wherever they were being stored, right? they probably just actually wanted Doug and his RS2
@@apakslactually no. all the old cars and IMSA, S1 and R18 are filmed in Germany. Specifically 4:33 - 4:56, 5:23 - 6:22 (even the roundabout - you can see german type of houses and church tower)
Actually, germans do like fun, even if it is a bit bizarre (which this absolutely is). You can sort of see why though. This almost-short-film has little meaning and is all over the place. Well, at least it's fun and car commercials are usually beyond dull so this is a nice change of pace. Anyway, it is, according to the rumors, most likely just Audi of America arguing with Audi AG and they had to take it down.
I can actually see why they have, Audi is s luxury brand and I don't think all the details of the cars come off very luxury, it all looks very ordinary, you just wouldn't do stuff like that with those cars that cost so much...it does appear to cheapen the value a bit in my opinion. However it does look fun but this sort of fun just doesn't seem right for the Audi brand. I get it
@@suicidallooneypro I understand what you mean and Audi AG definitely thought the same but the problem is (not just with Audi but all german brands) that they are so obsessed with being serious and doing everything else at the same time. They want to be fun and appeal to younger buyers but then are too greedy and afraid to disturb their business customers and high-end market that in the end they just lock themselves into the dullest corner where no one cares. This commercial and it's existence (or lack of now) is a prime example of that.
It's actually a very good commercial. Having the focus not being on the car makes me notice features I would have ignored normally. It's like how the newer Italian Job movie made minis look so cool by featuring them doing and being part of cool things.
Because it's an Asian man with a white woman. Its the bias against any positive AM representation in general, that actually challenges stereotypes or misconceptions about AM.
It is such a shame that Audi USA was forced to delete this commercial. Unlike Mercedes and BMW, Audi gave us a wholesome and positive message that we can all learn in life: Enjoying the moment. That's why we see these people, kids and adults, happily playing with water balloons together.
It's beyond me why Audi pulled this ad. I smoked through 90% of this very long ad smiling ear to ear. So fun, so cool seeing all the old legendary cars(and their drivers), and Doug? Come on! What a great ad! I say that as someone who hates ads!
I can see why they pulled the commercial. Probably sounded great as a concept but the whole water balloons and look for the trees part was really awkward. It could probably be salvaged with enough work. That whole narration script was overly wordy and made very little sense.
Agree, kinda ironic that an ad talking about focus and being the moment was so all over the place. A bit of a pity because I like the main message (or at least what I guess the message is)
Not sure choosing an antiwar song about the end of civilization was the best choice for a water ballon fight but it is a catchy tune and it sure is a fun video!🎈🎈🎈
I would assume German song for German brand. Also I guess water balloons aren't that far fetched from normal balloons (Luftballons literally translated is air balloons) so it fits the general theme
Yea this definitely doesn't make any sense. I just feel like someone at Audi just wanted to get the best cars currently produced and the best legacy vehicles in to one ad and this was the best way for them to do that

One of the best ones, it doesn't even feel like a comment, but a whole movie, I was sad it ended.
@@zacheryryan6533 Audi AG told Audi USA that they dont understand the point this video and asked them to take it down
Came here after hearing Doug Demuro talking about this commercial.
SAME
same yo
What a wonderful, fun, enjoyable film. People, kids, adults having fun together. It doesn't get any better than this.
It felt like a Sunday movie and I didn't want it to end.
I absolutely loved this too! With all the iconic cars and original drivers!
I can't believe they even got Doug to be in the video. I guess there aren't any other blue RS2s in NA.

That was brilliant! I cannot imagine why Audi wanted this video pulled?
they got cold feet about being seen as a fun company
So that way more people would look for it since it’s “forbidden”

They probably saw Doug's Audi Allroad video after this was released
This commercial was an absolute banger, WHY would they take this down?!
Because Germans hate fun.
Why in the WORLD would Audi delete this video?!!!?! ITS AMAZING 😍😍
They don't love fun
they truly are German
Thanks for re-uploading this!
Couldn't let this go to waste and forgotten
WASSERBALLONWERFER!
Hahaha. Nice touch with the switches labeled that. Hilarious.
Absolutely awesome. Wonderful piece. Reminding us all stop and smell the roses.
Actually bought an Audi because of this commercial.
That was goddam brilliant. I will never understand why Audi wanted to kill it.
5:21 the Quattro turbo whistle is amazing everytime and I can stop watching it
The Quattro is one of the most important cars in rally history because of it actually showing how good awd is for rally driving
This thing is the greatest advertising fiasco in the whole damn ad world.
The poor bastards that have to work on fixing those audi's would bring out the frozen water balloons
Thank you, I was looking for this!!
Doug said he’ll be making a video on how this opportunity came to him. He might have some insight into why it got removed
This is truelly brilliant..masterpiece
Makes me proud to have been an Audi owner for most of my life. No Michèle Mouton though?
I tried. She almost said yes…
one of the better commercials out there ...
lovely ad! keep up the great work!
It's beyond me why Audi pulled this ad. I smoked through 90% of this very long ad smiling ear to ear. So fun, so cool seeing all the old legendary cars(and their drivers), and Doug? Come on! What a great ad! I say that as someone who hates ads!
this is Phenominal! thank you so much for sharing, this was a lot of work it looks like, the Old School race cars 🏎 🚗 😀 👍 😎 💯
What better way to get you to Google "Audi" than taking down one of the best commercials ever?? Your Don Draper is showing Ingolstadt.... ;)
This is a great short film.
I own an Audi and a lot of other VAG products, and I'm happier about it after having seen this video.
Anything to put a smile on humanity is AWESOME! 😎❤️ #Audi
When the Group B quattro showed up it gave me goosebumps
Why did Audi remove this from UA-cam?? It's such a good commercial especially since summer is coming to a close.
The Audi bosses didn't like how it portrayed Audi and didn't understand the point of the commercial, that's what I've heard.
@@Josmersuero That is literally just a single rumor from an uncredited source, though, so...take it with all the grains of salt in the ocean.
@@faaaaq Only one that has come out that has sense.
Because some butt hurt racists can't stand to see an interracial couple with an Asian man and a white woman
This is what life was like before all the hate.
Amazingly cool
Great job
Call of Duty- OUT OF AMMO! Just wiggle your foot under any car. :D
That would be incredibly convinient
My act was a "stand in" of the founder himself. Was real fun for 2 days. The guy with the drone or sitting in the yellow car....😊
I sighted an NSU in the parade of cars (at 13:05) but it wasn't listed in the end credits. I wonder what that was?
I guess they pulled it from UA-cam because Audi is after all a german company and having fun is not the german way. 😀
I want to live in that neighborhood!
Me too, but only if I can keep my Honda.
amazing ad!
Such joy
Audi HQ, Y'all is tripping to delete this. Assuming it was done by choice becauuse with all these celebs, there's a lot of legal stuff involved lol.
aww, its so silly and optimistic
Amazing film.. Shame there is no Michele Mouton in it.
Such a great short film! Sad Audi has shut this down.
I was just looking for this too!
This has got to be the weirdest car commercial ever produced.
The childish advertising Audi badly needs.
Such am awesome past, such a crappy future...electric 😭
What’s crappy about that? They’re fast and you don’t have to spend an arm and a leg to drive them lol
@@triple7marc you simply dont enjoy driving. Cars are not your thing. Electric cars are the doom of cars.
Brilliant!
Love it!!

Judging by what you drive I wouldn’t expect you to get it.
They canceled this ad cause it's Asian guy with white girl .
*THIS* is an interesting concept, just too long.
Super ❤😁👏👏👏🎈
Why did Audi not want to release this ad?
They release it but the bosses in Germany told them to delete it because they didn't like it.
So they took it down? Why
cuz the white lady.
Best 👌🏻
Who’s here after the smoking tire pod
damn it looks like a scifi-movie
I bet everyone came here to see Doug
The RS6 ad guy is here too wtf
Thermic engine for life
This is the most unfocused commercial ever.
was this ad created by AI?
coz the main message seems to be:
when the AI drones take over
"just go with it"
It moved at the sutututu.
You guys would help me a lot of you subscribe
very good commercial, but i don't want to buy the shit coming at the end of video ... i want a RS2 or RS6
OMG OMG OMG DOUG IS IN THIS I AM SO FREAKIN HAPPPYYYYY
dafuq I just watched
I don't know about you, but 13:05 is a bit long for a commercial.
Soooo, electric charging cars and water..... I'm assuming it's water resistant? No fear of electrocutions?
You assumed right, they have water right compartments
You think people aren’t going to drive or charge their cars in the rain?
Sound is broken
Did you read my comment?
@@Josmersuero what comment?
@@Doctors_TARDIS the pinned comment.
Marketing 101. Entertaining, but still not buying an Audi.
If only life was that simple ...
Wtf is this ad? This feels like it was written by a 5 year old - it's all over the place.
Nein! Nein! Zis iz verboten!
Even w/ the Group B and IMSA cars this is still a horrible commercial. I see why they buried it. Thiiiiissss is a bad commercial!
Isn't this the Tokyo drift guy?
I do not understand this at all
Very odd
Scheiße, wirklich eine schlimmste audi Werbung was ich hab gesehen, americana konnte nicht mehr gute werbung machen, traurig 😂
Although it's a nice commercial, I can see why it's removed. It doesn't have a point
Pointless
Why?
Such BS commercial. Glad the big boys in Germany pulled it
Dissapointing video, so much water and electric cars being charged, I was expecting someone to get electrocuted, that would make so much more sense.
