Bear-Shark it ain't, but hit play to see a Volkswagen SpaceFox commercial starring the Fish-Dog (or maybe Dog-Fish), the strangest animal hybrid combination since ManBearPig . Almapp BBDO of San Paulo, Brazil created this interesting spot for the South American VW SpaceFox. At the end of the ad a tagline is shown saying the SpaceFox can be "anything you imagine," but its not quite a hybrid so we're a bit confused by the connotation. If it could be anything we'd imagine, we'd make the SpaceFox a fauxrrari and promote it with the way more badass hybridized human-dog . Regardless, its a creative piece of advertising that somehow makes us crave sashimi after watching. Don't stand by me little dog-fish, you're creeping me out. [via YouTube ]

newVideoPlayer("STIAd_Jalopnik.flv", 463, 387,""); For Wes, the 2008 Subaru WRX STI was a happy experience. For these fictional German engineers in this Subaru commercial the experience was the same. Well, that is until angry bald German bossman shows up. He ruins everything. It's a funny commercial, with a good use of Falco, but is the STI really the Japanese car the Germans wish they built?

newVideoPlayer("AudiBlackList_gawker.flv", 463, 300,""); As a quick aside to our Super Bowl commercial watching -- in addition to the hilarious "Godfather" Audi Super Bowl commercial , the "Truth In Engineering" site is also home to a bunch of high-production value videos, each a riff off the "Truth In..." thing the Auto Union's got going on. All of them are sure to delight and astonish the Audi fan-boys but our fave flick's got to be the "Truth In The Blacklist" video above. So head on over to Audi's site and click away -- don't worry, Audi marketing maven Scott Keogh's already expecting at least 750,000 to 1.2 million of you to show up. [via Truth In Engineering ]

newVideoPlayer("GenesisSB.flv", 463, 387,""); If you're not a football fan, you may have just lost one reason for watching the big game this Sunday night (unless you're going to be watching in anticipation of a Tom Petty wardrobe malfunction). That's right, we've got the highly anticipated Hyundai Genesis Super Bowl Ads right here, right now. The Korean automaker's two new 30-sec spots take dead aim at German (rival?) automakers BMW and Mercedes-Benz and a tiny little swipe at Lexus (also rival?). Smugly touting their new 375hp V8, Hyundai is obviously trying to appeal to a more demanding clientèle and taking a little bit of an understated approach to the whole glitz-and-glam we normally expect from big budget big game ads. We think there will be quite a few people second-guessing their luxo-badge-snobbery come Sunday. And hey, does it seem like Hyundai's finally picked a front grille for the Genesis ?
