I think it was that nautical pugilist, Popeye T. Sailorman who first used the word disgustipated.
And it was Pres. Warren G. Harding who invented normalcy.
You can say that it was the day the music died.
1) Guy goes to Pepsi machine, pushes button and gets keys to a Mercedes. Oh, if only it were that easy!
2) VW ads in general have gone from amusing to just kinda weird. There's the one with the two guys standing in front of a dealership, one of them dressed as a bride. Then there's the ad that's gotta be at least 60 seconds long, that just shows a guy getting up, going to work, working, etc., showing the sameness of his life. Then he looks out a window at work and sees (we assume) a Beetle convertible. But we never see the car itself in the commercial! I always hate that.
3) New Acura SUV ad (GX?) showing it do a four-wheel slide through the snow in slow motion, with "Let It Snow" playing in background. Kinda cool seeing the snow whip up and over it as it turns.
4) Finally, I can't decide who's cuter: The chick in the Subaru Baja "Reincarnation" ad, or the chick in the Kia ad who goes through the different boyfriends.
"You ordered some Pizzas?". In the background you see the 3 series festooned with one of those Domino-style roof signs.
I thought it was pretty clever even tho I'd probably be the dweeb holding down two jobs so I could make payments on something cool instead of a friggin Dodge.

I used to "lose" the delivery signs, though ;-)
Never did understand the appeal of cars sliding sideways in advertisments, but Acura's not alone in this.
I guess I'm dating myself, huh?
94_octane - Oops, you're right, it's a Lexus alright. But that's what these luxo-car makers get for all these inane alpha-numeric names...it's too easy to get 'em mixed up!
"dramatization" or "professional driver on closed course" and maybe something to the effect that you shouldn't be trying this yourself. I don't think Lexus had that on their ad however.
Showed a piece of paper floating down towards the road surface, everytime it got close to landing an car would come past and kick it back up. About the 3rd or 4th car the guy rolls down his window and grabs the paper as he goes past. It then show the line of cars going past a sign for a automobile club and keep our roads clean.
This commercial had a good message I thought. But I can't remember what car it was?

I can imagine their next TV commercial, talking about safety and showing how their trucks can vaporize crash dummies strategically positioned in front of them. "Yeah baby, not a single scratch, now lets try ramming that family driving a Corolla"
Has anybody wonder how you suppose to stop those things on time?
aha, aha, aha, ehe, ehe, ehe it has a hemi, ehe!
Behind them is a... ('snooty maitr'd," as in the 3.5RL ad)
In front of them is a...("a disater is unfolding;" 3.5RL ad)
But right now they're enjoying the luxury of their new Acura (model name)... (in this case, a 3.5RL)
And of course, the couple used is a mid 20's-early 30's yuppie couple. It's almost as stupid as the Lexus Christmas ads, which I also find very annoying.
lot more of me than there are of their "chosen" as the sales of no-kidding trucks clearly indicate.
I don't recall ever seeing a fun Lexus commercial, however. The announcer's voice is really, really annoying, and the yuppies are even worse.

Then later on, "All trade ins accepted".
How is that going to help the overstocked situation?

It's the Chrysler minivan ad, where dad and mom picks up their daughter one by one - first one pretends to hurt her leg at a soccer game, the second one from horse riding...
At the end, mom's cell phone rings, and she tells her husband, "van camp"...
Can someone enlighten this clueless soul?

The only thing more annoying than that zoo-zoom kid is the endless loop of cars circling tail out thru the sand, how original.

How about that one in Britain for the X-type and the snowplow? You can download it @ http://www.jag-lovers.org/brochures/video/xtypead.mpg or at

Anyone seen that infamous anti-SUV commercial yet? I haven't.
This has to be the most irresponsible stupid commercial I have ever seen. I guess Porsche is going after dumb-asses.
have not seen the ad. would be livid if I had.
As far as to what brand of motorhome it is, I have no idea. It is big, two tone paint. I know quite a bit about cars, but I know absolutely squat about motorhomes. I can't help you as to what brand it was.
