What the flying **** was that.

BigAls87Z28 12-15-2009 06:59 PM

Someone or several people losing thier jobs at GM, thats what

cdacda13 12-15-2009 07:12 PM

How the hell did that ever see the light of day? I hope its a joke.

LS1Hawk 12-15-2009 07:16 PM

How the hell did this ever get past Maximum Bob?

BigAls87Z28 12-15-2009 07:20 PM

Bob is more of an advisor now to Big Ed about product and where to take the company.

Maybe the honda/toyota crowd likes this kind of *****?

Frosty 12-15-2009 07:34 PM

I don't know which is funnier, that video or Al's response to Tsar. :rofl:

That video made me sick...a true disgrace.

Bcozzi71 12-15-2009 07:35 PM

wow...................wow

BigAls87Z28 12-15-2009 07:39 PM

They were trying to go for this...

But some how....they strapped C4 to the idea, and let it glide into LA's Auto Show.

WildBillyT 12-15-2009 09:16 PM

That "gay ass song" has all of you talking about it...

Foosh 12-15-2009 10:10 PM

Thats not exactly catering to the younger crowd of kids who are buying civics and scions... GM really should start a new brand like toyota did or when they are back running well, restart pontiac and make it only sports cars aimed at the younger crowd, whether front rear or awd.

BigAls87Z28 12-15-2009 10:30 PM

They did...it was called Saturn.

In fact, Toyota created Scion in the image of Saturn. Hassle free pricing, small cheap cars with quirky styling, offering a different buying experiance.

Belive it for not, people dont want sports cars.
The Volt isnt for people who buy civics and scions.
GM has botched any and all marketing for this car in some real serious ways.

Who here can tell me what the Volt is without searching the internet about it?

Now put down the vodka, stop cleaning the AK47, and get back to making those Matryoshka dolls...commie.

Did I strike a little nerve there? :lol: And yes just because it's GM you support it 95% of the time, at least on this board.

Let me know if you need me to ship you some tampons.

Back to GM sucks thread.

BigAls87Z28 12-15-2009 10:52 PM

Nah, no nerve was hit. It was more of a joke.
95% is pretty high percentage. Id say 70%.

If GM sucks so much, why does it concern you enough to return here to cry about it after you sold your GM product? :)

That being said, GM has some crummy marketing.

wretched73 12-15-2009 11:26 PM

That whole thing was a mistake

BigAls87Z28 12-15-2009 11:27 PM

It will continue to be GM's fall.

Mr.FIRD 12-15-2009 11:29 PM

That wass sooo gaay my poor ears are bleeding :(

spina74 12-15-2009 11:35 PM

that is a good point. There are a lot of people in show biznezz that say negative publicity is still publicity.

The new evil Decepticon from the new Transformers movie? :scratch:



GM's marketing really is horrible. I think the best commercials they have are the truck ones with Howie Long, and even in them they don't talk about the capabilities of the trucks. Just off the top of anyones head from watching those commercials, can anyone tell me what the towing capacity is of the new Chevy trucks? What cab options there are? Bed capacity? Engine? Anything? All I know is they talk about carpenters and tools. They don't make me want to go out and buy a new Chevy truck, they make me want to go work on my deck.

Yup. This is probably one of the best marketing things I've seen out of GM in a while... that was allowed to still air/be released.
