Import Disaster

i don't know if you guys around the globe get this commercial or not, but i was watching much music here in canada, and thena commercial comes on...it has like 4 pimped cars, and i'm thinkin ot myself, F&F 2? Then it has some car with hydro's...which i hate...but whatever, then there is a huge crowd and these guys run over to see what's going on...and it's a pop-tart doin the hydro thing with underbody neons.... it's shit like this that makes me embarrased to do up my honda... i don't know who gave permission for kellogs to disgrace the import culture, but i definitely wouldn't give my "O-TAY" to that shit....or....it could be that i'm partial to toaster struddles.... Sorry, i just ahd to get this off my chest...

Has anyone else seen this?

I have seen that commercial.
I must say I am very disappointed.

i was reading some other forum and some guy was in it he said it was retarded

sounds lame, haven't seen it

The first time i saw it i was like damm some sweet cars , thinking what show could this be and then i see the fucking poptart!!! what the hell why would they do that it doesnt make anything fucking sense

Well on a marketing standpoint it is really easy to see why they did that, They feel as if the import scene is very big and if you want to appeal to your consumers you have to relate to them, so by putting there name in with the cars they hope that you'll go out and eat a pop-tart while driving in your car, I personally wouldn't because it would get all those little crumbs in your ride.

The thing about it that makes me so mad (and why i started this thread) is that from now on, stang and maro owners are going to bash import owners because of that damn breakfast pastry. I don't see how they feel they have the right to sell out a scene they know nothing about... and secondly...no import should have hydros...no exceptions... leave that to cadilacs or whatever else the hell they use

I like pop tarts. I'd do the commercial if i was getting paid good.

I would have to say that the commercial reached it's objective...to get their target audience to talk about the product. You remembered the commercial, what the product was, and you're telling all of your friends, no doubt. That's what the advertising community would call a "successful commercial." Well done. :evillaugh:

those diabolical bastards...sitting their enjoying their strawberry toaster pastry with cream cheese topping...laughin' at us from their high rise building window office, over looking their beamers and benz's..... I'll never eat a pop-tart again...that's my protest... they may take our scene, but they may never take OUR BREAKFAST...wow...i'm lame....

hold on wait the fuk up.
They had a POP TART hoppin like it had hydros????
Good lord if someone has a vid i want to see this bs.

IMO i like hydros.But to each his own.

This is the most SHAMEFUL commercial ive ever seen.Poptart should feel like shit for making fun of a whole culture.Bad acting weak techno and the worst of all,a poptart jumping around.
Here ive found a link to watch it.http://videos.sdstreetracing.com/lolopoptart.mov
:flipa: :mad: POPTARTS :finger: :flipa: :bloated: :mad:

It's almost like that old Saturn commercila where the guy and girl are getting in the car and all these nice cars pull up, the drivers get out look amazed as the 3rd door of the Saturn in open and one guy goes "Dude, how did you trick out that door?"

seen it looks retarded,but they make us talk about it,so they pretty much accomplished their goal:(

i've seen that commercial.....those cars were tight man.....that one ek civic hatch .... the one w/ the HUGE tenzo r logo......and the car on airbags and shit.....well, i guess that's all cool......any of u guys see the arco commercial with rj de vera sporting a car that's not his?......his cars were WAAAAAAAYYYYY better and they used a prelude....anyways....i doubt a lot of performance "enthusiasts" use arco gas..........:bloated:

i have type-r stickers on my bike, will it go faster?
LMAO i love that!
Btw i think we should all sue pop tarts for false advertisement.
Last time my poptart popped out of the toaster it didnt jump around like that,Damnit.
