Smart Car's Redesign Compared To Dodgy Facelifts

Comparing you car's latest redesign to six dodgy facelifts is an odd advertising strategy, but Smart Fortwo has given it a shot anyway.

The car, which has had a facelift of its own, is joined by a range of facelift freaks in the brand's latest ad, including Amanda Lepore.

The transgender performance artist, who has famously undergone numerous surgical procedures to create her distinctive look, isn't one to shy away from the cameras.

You would think a good facelift would be a better way to promote the car's new look. But then again surrounded by fish-lipped cosmetic disasters sporting permanent looks of surprise, the two-seater looks pretty good.

The popularity of cosmetic surgery is ever increasing, with a 197% rise since tracking of surgery began. However, this looks more like a spot to warn vain young kids of the dangers rather than encouraging hot city couples to invest in a new car.
