"zoom zoom zoom" is the theme song

"zoom zoom" is the catch phrase

There is a CD single with the ZOOM-ZOOM song on it.

I know because my wife bought it off of ebay.


It actually sounds good with a nice set of subs and an aftermarket stereo coming from a MAZDA.

Later,

Bill

I belive all car commercials should feature:
1.) Thier cars being drifted.
2.) The roaring car engine noise, as it is over 4500RPM.
3.) Showing us the car redlining.
4.) The gears being shifted.
5.) More drifting.

I like the ads.

The zoom*zoom*zoom song does what it was supposed to do -- it makes you remember the brand.

Chevy truck's use of Bob Segar's "Like a Rock" and the old "Have you driven a Ford ... lately?" also helped create successful ad campaigns. In contrast, can anyone remember the last Toyota or Pontiac ad they've seen/heard?

Arguably one of the best car ads, however, was the Nissan toy car/toy doll ad that used the Van Halen track from about 5 years ago.

Toyota? Yeah, I remember the "My Toyota" ads that had this *terrible* rock ditty with words: "Maaah Toyota!" While most of the Toyota TV ads had just dealerships with lots full of cars shown and people with happy faces getting into cars, there was this one ad that had the band playing my Toyota (all members of which looked like they got stuck in the 80's). And I thought that was terrible.

R u kidding me? Doesn't anyone recall the Toyota Sienna? They featured it doing this hardcore drift accross the sand, and said it did 0 - 60 in 8.7 seconds. That minivan is amazing. As for pontiac, I watched thier Grand Prix commercial a while back, i liked it a lot. They were pushing the car on this nice open road... But then again, I don't like domestic cars.

I liked the Protege 5 commercial where it was driving through a city at night. They kept doing close ups of the wheels in motion. It looked pretty sweet.

Yeah that Subaru commercial with the biker (Lance Armstrong?), I like how they show the pistons going up and down and other internals moving. Looks cool.

Actually I can hear the zoom-zoom song anytime I want.
My wife got a CD single of that song on ebay.

Just this past Sunday a group of Proteges did a mountain drive in northern Arizona.
I had that song blairing through the tight mountain curves.

Something about hearing zoom-zoom-zoom and banging corners just goes together.

Check out my web page and read on page 2. There are some pictures of our adventure.
