localzing.com — GM is telling people during their Pontiac TV spots to "google Pontiac" and are even showing a screen shot of google at the end of the ad. GM thinks that google is such a trusted and impartial brand that some of that might rub off.

  • xakto, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's pretty funny to see who else is advertising on the keyword "pontiac", second ad is Mazda pointing to an article "Put Pontiac to the Test - Drive the All-New MX-5 Miata Today!"

    Rather ironic because the line in the pontiac commercial said "see for yourself, Google Pontiac"

    "More people searching for Pontiac than Altima"
