Acura Sponsors Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee

Jerry Seinfeld doubles down on his support for Acura vehicles.

Visit a Chicagoland Acura dealer and ask a member of the sales team just who their favorite comedian is, there's a pretty good chance "Jerry Seinfeld" comes back as an answer, but it's not just his status as a comedian that has earned him fame among Acura fans. He is also a lover of fine automobiles like the upcoming Acura NSX, giving him more in common with the average Acura sales expert than the typical comedian.

Famous for his self-titled "show about nothing," Jerry Seinfeld became a household name in the 90s, and while he hasn't gone back to traditional television for any extended period of time since the end of Seinfeld, last year saw the debut of his webseries Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. Don't try to think too hard about what it could be about, it really is as simple as it sounds.

After picking up a friend or two in one of his classic cars, Seinfeld and company head off to get coffee and chat. Although the connection to cars is only a slight one, it's one that Acura thought was worth supporting, and they will be the sole sponsor for 24 episodes of the second season, which opens up with special guest Sarah Silverman.

Acura has promised that the ads that will be released with each episode will be contextually relevant, with some focusing on the new 2014 MDX. For drivers unfamiliar with the vehicle, it is Acura's latest crossover utility option, redesigned and upgraded to compete with the top of the line in luxury SUVs. "Jewel eye" LED headlights, an upgraded AcuraLink, and a redesigned engine are just a few of the appealing additions to the new model.

To learn more about Seinfeld's partnership with Acura or to set up a test drive of any new Acura vehicle like the 2014 MDX, contact a sales expert at a Chicagoland Acura dealership. With many choices all over the greater Chicago area, it's easier than ever to get behind the wheel of one of the most luxurious options on the road today.
