Commerical time: Mazda Luce Lotatly Turbo

January 6, 2011 / banpei / 0 Comments

Even though every second of this commercial screams early 80s forward thinking it still didn’t convince enough people that the rotary engine would be the solution to every problem. The new Luce was a big luxurious Japanese battleship and weighted 1450 kilograms. Not exactly movable by its 1.3 liter 13B rotary engine.

On the other hand it hits the bullseye: luxurious sedans need a silent less vibrating engine like the 13B. Unfortunately the rotary engine lacks the torque. Nevertheless I would still like to own such a thing any day!

I love the lotaly turbo chime at the end.

Hilarious: Carina A60 ads

December 24, 2010 / banpei / 1 Comment

To stay in the Carina Week spirits I’ve made a listing of all Carina A60 ads. Somehow they are just as wacky as all the other hilarious postings!

The puppy saving Twincam Turbo ad with Sonny Chiba:

The Carina Roadrunner II SG (twice) and the Carina Jeune:

The 1981 Carina AA60 (probably a Carina SG):

Another version of the hilarious Carina Twincam Turbo ad with Sonny Chiba, followed by another Carina Roadrunner II ad:

The Carina My Road:

This lady acts as if she is getting married in it! :D
Well I did in mine! ;)

And as last another Jeune ad:

Even though the rear bumper looks retarded it is still high on my want list because of that ancient car backup system that indicates how far away you are from various objects (like annoying little girls).

Commerical time: Subaru NaNa Rex

Yesterday I already posted a wacky Japanese commercial of some soy candybar, today another one from the 80s for the Subaru ~~NaNa~~Rex:

And another one with a Subaru Sambar/Domingo bonus to keep up the 80s spirit:

Now I really want to buy the ~~NaNa~~Rex!

Hilarious: SoyJoy saku saku commercial

I just loooooove wacky Japanese commercials:

SoyJoy is some sort of soy (candy?) bar and Saku Saku is a very well known children’s program on the Japanese TV. Apparently stuffed animals can’t sing. :D

Commerical time: put your TE72 Corolla Liftback in a museum!

December 12, 2010 / banpei / 0 Comments

The Toyota America must have been thinking forward 30 years when they made this TE72 Corolla Liftback commercial:

Almost all Corollas from the E70 range have transformed into rustoseums, so better put a TE72 in a museum when it was brand new! :P

BTW: this actually happened at the Louwman Museum: they put away a bunch of brand new Toyotas every year to ensure they are preserved. :o

Hilarious: Celica AT182 commercial parody

December 3, 2010 / banpei / 0 Comments

The late 80s and early 90s were a golden era for Eddy Murphy. No wonder he made a commercial for the Toyota Celica in 1989. It was such a popular commercial that a parody with a bosozoku praising the Suzuki Cultus was made:

I love the soundtrack (The Fly) by Dr.? Dre. ;)

In case you are wondering what the original commercial looked like, here it is:
