*I would post a link for the commercial but I can't find one*

You all know the one I'm talking about, there are different Zs driving around a city (roadster, Track, Nismo, etc.) and there is this stupid, idiotic sing-over with some guy singing "drivin' in my car" in a twangy, "my family tree doesn't branch" kind of way.

This can't be the image that Nissan wants to put out for its flagship sports car. I'm a 30 year old male making a decent living (presumably, the target audience for the Z) and that commercial does not appeal to me or portray me in any way whatsoever.

Sorry for the rant, it's just that every time that commercial comes on (it's especially prevalent during sporting events), I roll my eyes and quickly turn the channel

 

Best commercial on TV- IMO.

 

+1

"knick knack...open up the front door...knick knack...open up the back door"

 

ah-woooo ga woooo ga!

 

I smile everytime i see it.

 

The sound the Z makes when racing in between city buildings is pure joy!

 

i also love seeing this commercial

I like the commerical except for the song :\ but whatever. Anyone with tivo and broadband can download the making of the commercial video.

 

+1 great commercial

 

reminds me of me every i come home from school hahah !

 

I like the contrast between the car & the kitschy song. And the commercial is well-shot and visually dynamic. There's behind-the-scenes footage of the making of the thing on Nissan USA's site somewhere, in which the director says the song is what really inspired him. Quite good.

 

The visuals are good racing down the street an all but im with you on the song its got to go i cant stand the humming.

 

I am marketing professional and love that commercial. It's all about creating a lasting impression, and Nissan has succeeded in doing so. If not, you wouldn't have started this thread.

 

That commercial is tight. The exhaust sounds is pretty fierce. Too bad they didnt show a brickyard Z
