Something's Not Right in France ...

The YouTube video above comes to us courtesy of good old French automaker and new-found GM ally Citroën. In the ad, a strapping young lad pilots a C3 hatchback around a city and is attacked by some fetching young ladies. However, if you watch the ad, something will catch your eye before you make it to the brunette in the black dress 5 seconds in.

Okay, never mind the fact the dude is driving a C3 wearing D&G badges. That's not what's strange here. At about 3 seconds in, you notice a taxi cab. It isn't just any taxi cab, though. It's a big yellow Chevrolet Caprice. Since when did GM sell Caprices in France? And it doesn't stop there. The Caprice's long-time rival the Crown Vic makes an appearance near the end of the ad as well as a few other American cars.

Bravo, Citroën, for making a mind-f*ck of an ad.

That is Freaking way to funny. Amazing auto's in the ad.

Your right that is a mindF@*K.

Probably filmed in So Cal...neat use of the older CVs and Caprices...

Almost none of the other cars in the video were Euro. There was a late 80s Deville in there too

and if you think about it, what a great way to make sure none of your competition's cars show up in your ad?

Late 60s/early 70s Mopar too.

SoCal for sure.

Interesting.....strange too.

SoCal for sure.

I thought it looked more South Beach Miami to me.
