Cars.com at Super Bowl

Cars.com is preparing for its largest marketing campaign ever with the launch of two TV ads, Stone Circle and Witch Doctor, during the Super Bowl 2008. The online car sales service is a division of Classified Ventures, a joint venture run by the Gannett Company, the McClatchy Company, the Washington Post Company and the Tribune Company. The spots both end with the new tagline, Confidence Comes Standard.
