These are companion banners on a dealer site I work with to market new Lexi. Notice the error in the disclaimer on the top banner, and the differences in spacing above the $750 in the top and $1000 in the bottom ad. Just no consistency here. Spacing sucks, and the Fx they use on the money messages just makes it hard to read. Besides the fact that these are the 2 target groups probably LEAST likely to ever be interested in a Lexus.

Oh horrendous. Let's throw some Bevel/Emboss on there like it's 1997, that'll just SCREAM luxury!

Oh, and you should probably say this dealer has shitty designers, I doubt these were corporate pieces.

from web guy "Sorry but no, we are stuck with what is there. Lexus tightly controls this and fills in all of these offers in for all Lexus dealers to keep up uniformity across web sites."

nope we don't touch Lexus lol.

I'm shocked, appalled, and horrified. And I don't even like Lexus, but damn I feel bad for them.

An agency needs to get fired and a marketing manager at Lexus.

You're doing this whole Firing thing now aren't you? Get on that...

If I had juice with Lexus corporate you bet your ass I would fire some people for letting this shit get out on a national level. the dealership won't even make the call they are so shook about raising a stink and losing co-op funds by pissing someone off

EXACTLY

I was working some tier 3 ford international, those guys would push back and push back, then finally the Ford Marketing Manager would say, OK well you do what you want- but the only way to get your co-op is to run our campaign.

OK SEND IT OVER SO SORRY IT'S BEAUTIFUL WE LOVE IT NEVERMIND, BEST AD EVER

yup, exactly. But you would think SOMEBODY at Lexus would have a little pride. Guess they want to sell Toyotas...

As someone who looks at these things for a living, I will refrain from commenting on style/grammar/init-caps since Karma is an ugly mistress.
