That is hilarious. Were people supposed to be inspired to buy one after they watched that? LOLZ

Re: 80s Nostalgia IROC-Z promo

well GM sold a lot of them, so i assume so. most car companies today don't even advertise a specific model car now, its mainly there entire line up and much more boring to watch. is this commercial cheesy? yes.. but id rather listen to musical for 30 seconds than a boring narrator talk the entire time.

Yes, this one is the best. I ripped the song and play it in my car when I shut ppl down on the road.
There is also a funny one for the '85 with Michael Jordan, where he says, "I don't just beat em, I rock 'em." Lol.

Oh man the 80's were just a decade of people not giving a care lol. I like how the woman that flips her sunglasses up goes "Ooooooooooo" with the guy singing lol I am jealous of all the hard tops and 5 speeds in that commercial.

Growing up in a full-color decade such as the '80s has made it hard for me to accept today's red-black-gray-white world.
