yeah. nice legs... ;)

Yeah, I saw those commercials and burst into laughter. I am just that more likely to get a VW as my next car. I like the whole "un-pimping" theme too.

true.

I was actually looking for something with a tail though, I don't like the butt of chimps they seem "unfinished", but at least aren't as bad as baboon butts.

the "oh snap" got me.

and now I want a trunk monkey.

"vee just dropped it like its hot"
"if you vanna unpimp ze auto say what" "what?" BOOM
"oh snap"

Have you ever seen a baboon up close?

A trunk baboon would be absolutely horrifying.

Those commercials scare me. It must be come kind of subtle nazi propaganda.

Why the hell do they destroy all the colored cars and replace them with a pure white car? Have any of you seen the one when they destroy a car in a gigantic furnace?
And why are all the owners of these cars minorities?

Thats what I mean. And the opposite end is equally frightening.

sure, but it might traumatize my kids.

Yeah, I love those adverts.

I never thought about that before. That's pretty hilarious.

I think they destroy the cars because the cars look like shit. As to the white VW, it's probably to show the most contrast with the cars that were destroyed.

BTW, it didn't look like all the car owners were minorities to me (check the one with the blue car).

sure, but it might traumatize my kids.

Not as much as me in the trunk.


think of it- better than a "time out"-

"Jr., if you dont behave, you get one minute for each year of your life in with the trunk baboon".

I'm liking the assistant...

"its definately sucking, jaa"
She takes you for a test drive at their website, you even drag race one of the other cars while she talks the smack.

I also like the "My Fast" ads for the GTi.

Officer: Is that your Fast?
Driver: Uh, yeah.
Officer: (To the Fast) Do we have a problem?
The Fast: (deep ominous voice with low bass choir) My Fast has a problem.
Driver: (Giving his Fast a wild eyed look of worry) No...

other ad-

Girlfriend: Do we always have to drive with the windows down?
The Fast: (deep ominous voice with low bass choir) My Fast likes the windows down.
Boyfriend: Honey, it's hard for me to hear the engine with all that yakkin'.

Ve vere just dropping it like itz hawt. :p

Those commercials were never meant to be racist propaganda. I would never have posted them if they were.

They're Atheist propaganda. :D

All heil our deutsch masters!

*bows in awe of the awesome commercials*

Vhat time iz it?
I dunno!
Time to unpimp ze auto!

Take a ride with Miss Helga (http://www.vwfeatures.com/?sem=1)

You have to build the car, but she talks smack through it.

Mmh. That's what I call Fahrvergnügen!

"I luv ze leazzer"

LOL! I have loved those since they came out. Someone's an advertising genius!

"Cherman engineering in da howse!" :D

Dude, I have been watching those commercials again and again. It's not often that a commercial is designed well enough to actually make me laugh. There are only four that I can think of that made me laugh.

-The Un-Pimp the Auto
-The Guiness "Briliant!" Guys
-The Fed-Ex Commercial with the cavemen
-The "Vault Soda" Commercials

-The Guiness "Briliant!" Guys

someone please find that site!!! :D

The Geiko caveman ads make me laugh, too. (but the gestures the guy makes to say, "But FedEx hasn't been created yet" are hilarious)

I also can't get enough of Bacardi & Cola (They get the job done). I can't even say, or type, "Ladies, we got a problem. We're gonna need at least eight more ladies," without giggling.
This (http://www.tubespot.com/node/293?PHPSESSID=0cfff0d190bd7f8feeec7bf79e296e20) makes me laugh.

As does this (http://www.tubespot.com/node/291?PHPSESSID=0cfff0d190bd7f8feeec7bf79e296e20)

-The "Vault Soda" Commercials
I've seen all those but this one.

I love that.


Hey-isnt that the guy from "Fargo".

Looks kinda like him, but I don't think so. He looks damn close when he's doing a serious look though. Sounds kinda different though, since I think the guy from Fargo is Swedish.

This is a pretty cool site.

I like this one in that 'Says more than intended' catagory like when the parade of Cadillac SUVs drive by an ice truck and melt all the ice...

Two monsters destroying the world have a baby. (http://www.tubespot.com/node/259) Even without the unintentionally impied subtext, it's a good ad.

I've seen all those but this one.

"Vault" apparently gives you the boost to do things that no rational person would do, such as re-vamping your scarecrow to a bipedal death-machine with flame-throwers and dart-launchers.

LOL! She's too skinny! :p

LOL, well he sure doesn't sound German in the ad! :p

And yeah, it's the guy from Fargo. His name is Peter Stormare (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001780/) and he's originally Swedish.

Yeah, you're right. I didn't think it looked like him, but it is. I guess all the mugging makes him look kinda distorted. Or maybe I'm just used to him playing lethargic characters, as in Fargo. :p

I enjoy those commercials, although, the man in them frightens me just a tad and I think I might just cry if somebody decided to "Un-Pimp" one of my cars.

demands to see a picture :)

lol I'm not saying my cars are pimped, I'd just cry if they unpimped them even more. Although you can buy me a digital camera and I'll fufill your wish.

If anyone can find a link for the Guinness ad 'Anticipation' with the guy dancing around the pint of Guinness to the song Guaglione (I think his name is Kevin McKinney, or something very similar), I would be enormously apreciative. I've been looking for it for weeks!

I've seen all those but this one.
Vault:Scarecrow (http://www.tubespot.com/node/298). This ad, especially the end, really is up your ally.

>.> This is pathetic seriously. Its worse then the German one by VW.

I like the trunk-monkey. :)
