Golf mark 5 GTI's commercial.

VW did what no one had done before. They made first anti-ricer commercial, I almost died when I saw it. Guy in some Toxic Green civic/crx with a huge blower on the hood, guy BTW is white poser wannabe black ricer in b-ball dress; he is pimping around his car than all of a sudden a huge metal ball blows his car out of the way and there is GOLF GTI behind it.

BEST AUTO COMMERCIAL PERIOD.

Re: Golf mark 5 GTI's commercial.

Yeah someone posted some links in another forum. It's a whole series of commercials with the same anti-ricer theme. They're pretty funny.

The other funny thing about the commercials is the new GTI looks pretty much like every other ricer out there - it kind of looks like a 2000 Civic or a Scion IMO.

Re: Golf mark 5 GTI's commercial.

Didn't look like a rice to me. I didn't notice spoilers, lame paint job and useless visual mods. And motor...it will be considerably faster than rice rockets around. 200 HP stock, I4 turbo.

Yeah Honda's don't come with huge spoilers and useless visual mods from the factory either.

Like I said, it's my opinion the GTI looks like any other Japanese hatchback - but here's a fact:

Turbo, and only 200hp? ...Honda Si's put out 200hp stock I4 N/A...who needs a turbo beeeeyotch!

Re: Golf mark 5 GTI's commercial.

love those ad's. My favourite is the one where they crush this focus with a crate then the crate collapses and there's a golf in there and the german dude does his little volkswagon street sign. I'll try to find it later

edit: here they are http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/02/...y-ride-videos/

I just have to correct you since I own a CRX. That was an Eclipse with a blower.

New GTI looks great and I've read that they will respond well to chips. But I've also heard that their pigs. I'm going to say it's most likely the big ass wheels.

True dat. "Torque" isn't in Honda's dictionary. But VW still couldn't even come close without forced induction. 200hp/200tq just isn't impressive when you're turbo'ed. My 10 year old n/a Prelude does 190hp...they should be closer to 250 or 300.
