Mercedes GLKLast Friday, we brought you information about the Mercedes-Benz GLK’s super secret film shoot for the new Sex and the City movie. At the time of filming, the vehicle had not yet made its public debut, and Mercedes was concerned about paparazzi catching spy shots of the new vehicle. Consequently, security surrounding the set and the vehicle was at an all-time high.

Now it is being reported that the entire film is basically one long commercial for Mercedes-Benz. According to The Improper, Mercedes product placement will be rampant throughout the film. Examples include not only the new GLK’s front and center spot as one the film’s stars, but also the character Mr. Big’s penchant for the Mercedes S-Class. Additionally, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week and even a local Mercedes dealership are rumored to play important roles in story development.

Of course, this is all great news for Mercedes fans. The company is also launching a variety of tie-ins and premiere events, so those who happen to fans of both Mercedes-Benz and Sex and the City will find plenty of entertainment tailor-made to their interests.

Overall, is it the best thing for Mercedes? Certainly, product placements and tie-ins to popular films are only a good thing for corporations in general. With Mercedes’ current push to remain hip and relevant in the 21st century, this seems like the perfect venue. Sex and the City has been a blockbuster television series and it is likely to be an equally successful film. Mercedes has done well in positioning itself within the movie.

Love or hate Sex and the City, this summer is a great time to be a Mercedes-Benz fan. If you would like to learn more about the GLK that is generating so much buzz, why not check out our special Mercedes-Benz GLK focus? When you are ready to buy, be sure to visit our friendly local dealership.
