Commercials

I have a few old Camaro commercials. This one is by far my favorite. I believe it was shown in movie theatres. It's very simple, but to the point. The car is made impresive without spinning tires and exciting footage. It would be nice to see something like this for the 5th gen. Updated to fit the times of course.

Re: Commercials

'98 TransAm Hungry Commercial "this one never gets old":
http://media.putfile.com/1998-TransAm-Hungry-Commercial

For kicks, here's the MotorTrend Review of the '87 IROC and Camaro Convertible (before GM took it in house):
http://media.putfile.com/Motortrend-...ertible-Review

This one isn't F-body, it's GTO. I forget the name of the band featured, but the whole commercial is dated beyond belief. Funny and quircky!!
Putfile won't upload it for some reason. Grrr...anyone know another good hosting site? Or some other place to host it???

I also have an '82 Firebird promo video that's very good. It's about 10 minutes long. I need to find a program to splice it into 3 pieces as it's 57Mb as it now stands.

Re: Commercials

The only one I ever remember seeing was the two kids listening to the cars pass and guessing what they were. Those are all new to me.

Re: Commercials

Holy crap GM made some LAME commercials!!!

The only kind of cool ones are the Trans-Am ones yet they still don't compare to the Mustang Steve McQueen commercial...

The rest are SOOOOOOOOOOOO cheesy.... even for the 80's and 90's!!!

No wonder the cars didn't sell... I wouldn't have bought one either if I'd seen half those commercials first.

I agree the Trans Am ones were the best of the bunch there, but does a commercial really influence you so much that it would cause you not to purchase something?

I mean, if you liked the Camaro in whatever year the cheesy commercial ran, why would a bad commercial make you no longer like it?

I just don't let anything other than my tastes change my opinion on something I guess.
