That guy lost his job.

*exitspeed* · 09-11-2007, 12:09 PM

You are correct. Fail.

Jung918 · 09-11-2007, 12:11 PM

ebonics yo. they are trying to appeal to the younger crowd.

tacotacotaco · 09-11-2007, 12:12 PM

So i think the Germans were saying, "wtf is this shit"

J-Style · 09-11-2007, 12:14 PM

When was it a good idea to make that into an ad-campain?!

ZX88 · 09-11-2007, 12:21 PM

that car looks like shit even more than the ad does.

xblack240x · 09-11-2007, 12:30 PM

Haha I second what zx88 said, the ad sucks, but the car is even less attractive then the ad itself...

The ad doesn't look bad actually. Good use of contrasting type and right to the point. The problem is...IT'S A BOLD FACE LIE! It's like the fat kid with low self esteem that has to make up all these stories to people for no reason at all and he has no idea that he does it.

qwikspool · 09-11-2007, 12:48 PM

weak sauce. car is not that appealing and they should take that ad down.

SimpleSexy180 · 09-11-2007, 12:58 PM

huh? i dont get you guys. anyways....

the point of an ad is to grab the attention of consumers..and looks like it "PWND" you guys.

It does that (I commented on the fact that ad is nice)...I think people are more commenting on the fact that no one will think BMW, MB, or Audi are mad they didn't build a car that looks like this abomination.

kyoru · 09-11-2007, 01:10 PM

god which German company wants to make this pos excuse of a car?!!!! anyone know the name of the designer of the new wrx?

nismo-joe · 09-11-2007, 01:21 PM

the new twin turboed car bmw just put out makes this look like poop. I'm sure subaru found this design in the trash bin marked sorry try again.

wootwoot · 09-11-2007, 01:39 PM

I think its tits.

OptionZero · 09-11-2007, 04:09 PM

it was a losing battle to begin with

they have the ugliest cars

BC240 · 09-11-2007, 05:31 PM

I thought the Japanese and Germans were friends??

Antihero983 · 09-11-2007, 05:33 PM

as someone who is a mechanic at a subaru dealership.....i fucking hate the new imprezas, cheap pieces of shit.

azndoc · 09-11-2007, 05:36 PM

It's lame, but it made me chuckle a little bit.

What aspects of it do you not like exactly?

lflkajfj12123 · 09-11-2007, 05:51 PM

have you actually seen this car in person?

Farzam · 09-11-2007, 06:09 PM

Autistic Mazda3.

wootwoot · 09-11-2007, 06:14 PM

Havent seen it in person, all the pics look good.

IIIXziuR · 09-11-2007, 06:30 PM

Yeah Subaru went down the shitter. That billboard is horrible and the car looks pretty stupid as well, IMO. I liked the other Imprezas but, this one just doesn't cut it.
....wtf are they bragging about

FRpilot · 09-11-2007, 10:37 PM

ad slogan could have been productive.. if the subbie wasn't so ugly.. it looks like a freaking ford focus hatchback thing.. no germans would wish to be credited for creating a monstrousity of a car like that.. better off having homer simpson design your car.

Matej · 09-11-2007, 11:32 PM

The author of the ad misinterpreted what German Auto Weekly meant when they said ?@#% since they couldn't print the foul words intended to describe the car.

SiI40sx · 09-11-2007, 11:38 PM

triple double face? the germans LIKE wrx's and its great reputation in the rally class? hence they wanted to SAVE it from being designed into a pile of shit?

"#@!?" probably means "FUCK I wish we could've saved that car" ???
