Volkswagen incites negative buzz by including 'vibrator' in new print ad (video)

Volkswagen isn't afraid to do ads that are a little different. or even a lot different; this is no secret, nor is it new. An ad in various national papers in India, though, including the Times of India, might have gone a black box too far in search of a buzz-worthy response. First, some context: two years ago VW ran a national, full-page ad in India for its Vento sedan, and attached to the ad was a little black plastic box.
