    Your favorite car commercials...

    Hello everyone, im going to school to get into advertising and i am also a car guy so i want to pose the question, what is your favorite car commercial? thank you.

    As for me i am partial to a 300zx commercial . I may be a little biased since i had one but it is a good commercial also. Its the one where the z car is chased by various other vehicles and each time he shifts he leaves one in the dust but then a bigger one comes along until he gets to the jet then he shifts into 5th and leaves it behind. yep, good stuff.

    Oh and it doesnt have to be strictly television commercial, maybe you have a favorite magazine ad.

    Hi, welcome to UCP

    I've never seen that commercial, got a link to it?

    There's one of a toy 300ZX, the driver is a Ken or a G.I. Joe or something and drives the car inside a house, picks up a Barbie or something etc. Pretty old but cool commercial. Not my favorite though.

    There was a pretty good commercial of a red Ford GT in 2003's or 2004's Super Bowl... Anybody has it by any chance?

    the only link i can find for that commercial is through this forum.

    -Edited by Niko: Removed link, I'll post it tomorrow.

    and read the first post. And it seems i was a little off on my description of it but thats ok, i havent seen it in so long.

    I cant believe i forgot the 300zx doll commercial, that was a really good one. And then it ended with Mr. K laughing at the end. Im sure alot of non car people didnt understand why some crazy old asian guy is laughing at the end of the commercial but i just have to love it.

    I really like the c6 commercial when it says introducing the car of you dreams. that really works.

    Anybody remember that old subaru commercial w/ the kid drifting on a tricycle? while searching for the z commercial somebody had a short clip of it in their avatar and they were talking about it, i was wondering if anybody can find it.

    That VW Golf commercial with the guy singing Mr. Roboto but you don't know it until the end when his friend gets into the car.

    Thanks for the link Scottie, great commercial!! Unfortunately I'm taking it down because the site where is hosted has a lot of porn banners and there's no way of getting a direct link to it.

    I'll download the video, resize it to under 10Mb and host it on www.putfile.com tomorrow so that everyone can see it.

    I'm off to bed now

    I love the NZ 80's Hilux ad where a guy called Barry CRump (R.I.P) Actually drives a Hilux off a cliff, lands, and survives. No special effects, no nothing. I've been trying to find a vid of it but have had no success

    The Toyota Hilux Ad where the Husband Drives off and coats the Family in Mud is rather good.

    From the "Bugger" Series.

    Aussies and NZ'ers will know which ones I mean.
