MINI USA released a new commercial featuring new MINI John Cooper Works Coupe. Created in the usual funky and hipster way of MINI, the video ad comes as a challenge posed by the company to MINI fans: Describe The Best Test Drive Ever. Period. In just six words.
From thousands of entries only one rose to the top, and MINI made it a reality. Mathew Foster’s entry was picked as #1 in The Best Test Drive Ever. Period.
Mathew’s six word entry: STEWARDESS, SALT FLATS, PARATROOPERS, SUSHI, FALCONER.
