As hard as one tries not to bring out the comic aspect of a former congressional representative and New York City mayoral candidate named Weiner who has been caught twice by the media sending and receiving sexual photos and messages, it’s practically impossible to hold back. Guilty as charged, as they say.

Now, if you’re wondering what Anthony Weiner, who was posing as Carlos Danger when he was sex-ting a young 23-year old woman from Illinois named Sydney Leather (before you say, ‘oh, come on now‘, we swear that’s her real name…), has to do with the automotive industry, the story doesn’t, but Mini found way to make a humorous connection.

Together with its longtime ad-agency Butler, Shine, Stern & Partners, Mini launched a Twitter account with the pseudonym @CarlonDMotor in which we see a photo of a Mini Cooper taking a picture of itself in a bathroom mirror wearing a white towel, with the caption, “Wanna get your hands on my stick?”.

“Not all brands can be this brazen,” a spokesperson for the ad agency, told Business Insider.

Touché Mini, touché…
