Cadillac to dump “Break Through” campaign

07/17/2006, 9:44 AM

By admin

Cadillac will do away with its “Break Through” campaign and drop Led Zeppelin’s “Rock and Roll” theme song, according to Automotive News. A new campaign to be introduced in August will target younger affluent buyers, and will be “story oriented.” It will not feature a single theme song, according to the report. The “Break Through” campaign began during the 2002 Super Bowl. More details are expected in the next few weeks, when General Motors will unveil the new campaign.

How about “Cadillac, not for poseurs” directed at the Euro trash that doesn’t stand a chance against the Caddy onslaught

These are some of GM’s best products, but they are stil priced too high to get me out of my BMW.

Lower your prices GM. You have lost incredible market share, no ad campaign will bring me back. Lower your prices.

Good. I’ve always had issues with using a Zeppelin song to sell cars. Or anything for that matter.

“Cadillac. You’ve reached the top of the class”

Seriously, Caddy should offer some mega deal where any moron who owns a POS German car or Asian econobox can trade up to a Genuine Cadillac if they promise never to screw up again! :)

Give em like 5% of their TMV, that’s all it will take to get these fools out of their current crap and into a Caddy

I saw a CTS today, the first one I ever saw in the UK with RHD. those creases sure made it look cheap. The Hyundai Sonata it was parked next to looked more expensive

Cadillac really needs to design something for people under age 65.

I just do not get it, a CTS cost equal or more than a 330i, but the quality just isn’t there yet. I still feel like cadillac is a car for old people.

In the bay area lots of cadillacs are found in ghettos with big chrome plastic hubcaps. In Southern California, cadillac convertibles are used as a dumpster replacing more expensive garbage trucks.

cadillac is a garbage car. it will never become the standard of the world. German competitors are always the best and they always will be. Cadilllac should close the company. Bad luck CADILLAC!
