\nFor the third year in a row, Audi will be running an add during the Superbowl. First there was the Godfathe<\/em>r parody <\/a>where the “Old Luxury” dude was put on notice about the R8 (which is a sports car, but who cares). Then last year’s really excellent Jason Statham spot called, “Chase.<\/a>” This year things are going to be a bit, well, more rocking.<\/p>\n

Ditching the notion of parodying films, Audi is instead employing the talents of the ageless (though quite well aged) rockers in Cheap Trick to promote the A3 TDI<\/a>. The ad will focus on the diesel A3 being named Green Car Journal’s<\/em> Car of the Year<\/a>. In it, Cheap Trick will be reinterpreting one of their classics and the spot should sport a, “fun, tongue-in-cheek environmental theme.” Any guesses as to which song? We’re thinking “He’s a Whore.” Make the jump to read the press release<\/a>.<\/p>\n
