Came across the brand experience for Ford 2010 Mustang launch today. The webisodes are based around Drifting in Japan which is kind of risky for Ford, given that it's illegal on the streets. At the same time it really gives the brand street cred and the edgy nature of the content is highly engaging.
I love cars but it's been a while since I've spent this much time on a brand funded microsite like this. The use of Google Maps and Video really brings the journey to life. The product specific features wrapped around the content are well integrated and supurbly executed - I like the 360ยบ exterior very much.
Having extensive automotive advertising experience, i can say its a breath of fresh air to see an auto invest in something like this. It shows that Ford understands their audience and effectiveness of digital done right. Even though there's nothing too innovative here, it goes to show that a great content idea well executed will always capture the audience's attention.
