Re: California IROC in VW commercial? A shame though that all they could find was a beat thirdgen. Doesn't really help us out IMO. Be a lot cooler if it was a cherry IROC. |

Re: California IROC in VW commercial? I have to agree it does appear to be a California IROC. What's funny is how the commerical is so clearly aimed at my age group (30 something guys). I could insert myself in everyone of those scenes. I think even heard that same line when I bought my 88 IROC at a used car dealership just out of college. Funny stuff :) |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? I too noticed they used a beat up one...my wife noticed it as well. Oh well...keep on keepin' on with the stereotypes :( |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? Its not THAT beat. Its got a straight body, just faded paint. That car looks a lot better than a lot of what you see here on TGO, my car included. You cant expect them to use a mint American high performance showcar in a video to advertise their new German sedans. |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? I've seen that a few times, first time about 3 or 4 weeks ago. I'm not that familiar with the details of a "California" IROC. In the few seconds it's on screen I only noticed the lack of hood lovers, thought maybe it was an RS or Sport model. |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? California IROC Package was RPO code 1C5. Deleted decals, rear spoiler, hood louvres, and striping. I think it was around from 85 to 87. Someone may correct me on the years it was available. |

Re: California IROC in VW commercial? 1985 only. Red or black. 500 built. |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? looks better then my bird |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? You know, there was a post about this in the Appearance and detailing board a few weeks back. I even commented on the fact that it's probably a base Camaro with IROC-Z rims and added ground effects. I mentioned that it didn't even have a spoiler, but I never even thought about the California IROC-Z! :doh: |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? I saw that commercial and loved it. I was surprised that they had a third gen on it. |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? Someone didn't do their research..the Massachusetts plate designs used through most of the commercial, including the moped scene, are 90's-2000's plates. |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? Got to love the Ted Nugget song playing in the background and I just noticed on the windshield it says "Raw Power". |

Re: California IROC in VW commercial? The seen at the dealership was probably filmed in CA. Each seen has different actors. |

Yeah, but the point Brock was making is, all the vehicles in the commercial have Massachusetts plates, including the moped scene. As Scott stated, there's a similar discussion in the detail/care board. It happens to have still frame shots of the commercial. Look closely and you will see the Palm trees. |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? Okay, I think I get it now. Someone really didn't do their research........Me, and the producer of the commercial. |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? I think the CA filming location helps confirm it probably is a real California IROC in the commercial. |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? Looks like someone at VW has some love or respect for our Third Gen's because they could have just as easily use a mustang.IMO....... |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? 2 Attachment(s) Here are some stills that raremx posted on the Auto Detailing and Appearance board. |
Re: California IROC in VW commercial? So has anybody bought a VW yet? |
