Bring on the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile!

Maybe this should be in the 86 forum but I drive a BRZ so it's here.

:sigh:

sigh is right, not sure how anyone could think there was a stick in there :bonk: and what automatic lever do you have that contains numbers? Must be one special 86, everyone else got stuck with the + and - symbols

I'm gonna say that the thought of driving the NutMobile on that banked oval track, at the top of the banked curve, would be a lot more frightening than driving the Supra.

I don't have an automatic twin... I like to drive and enjoy developing skills. My wife's LuxoSUBarges have automatics. Yes, pretty much everyone is aware that automatic cars can be told what gear to place themselves in. Most automatic cars until recently had some form of "P R N D 3 2 1" by the lever. I have never been near, much less in or driven, an automatic 86, so PLEASE forgive my incredible ignorance of what their stick looks like. I saw a guy grab a stick, move it, and the car shifted gears. Strangely enough, that made me think of a stick shift. Weird, I know. Go figure. I guess I'm just really stupid. There can't possibly be any other explanation. Thank you so much for showing me the light.



Yeah, I'm in a pissy frame of mind, and yes, you're not helping. My car has been in and out of the dealership since late January when I had the recall done, and it's been there for more than the last two months straight.. new engine, new engine problems, direct injection seal problems (they didn't replace the seals when they reinstalled them!!?!!), found out today they ordered the wrong seals and it'll be ANOTHER week before I get the car, haven't had a loaner for weeks, none available.. blah blah blah. Soooo... yeah... I'm not in a good frame of mind for someone to act all superior 'cause I made what I thought was just a fun comment re/ the transmission in the ad (knowing full well that they don't put an MT in that car).



Sooo... enjoy feeling better about yourself and puffing yourself up by denigrating others. After you've digested that little morsel, bite me.

Its a good thing its a Supra advertisement and not an 86 ad.
That peanutmobile would have beat the 86 by mere peanuts.

Will BRZ 05-10-2019 05:40 PM

How do y'all end up arguing in a thread about the Nutmobile and Mr. Peanut? Lmao

HKz 05-10-2019 06:52 PM

This commercial is just...ugh

Folks on my other car's forum are bashing it pretty hard.

nikitopo 05-12-2019 06:19 AM

Lol. Let's give some peanuts for a trophy.

What is there to bash? It is a commercial made as a joke. It was actually well done if people are sharing and talking about it.

Sapphireho 05-12-2019 11:21 AM

I thought it was cute.

Why do people feel the need to complain about a peanut commercial with the new Supra? Just two companies promoting their products in a comical, non-offensive way lol

Lantanafrs2 05-12-2019 06:09 PM

Who the hell came up with that idea

It’s one of the more clever cross-marketing ads I have seen. Brightened my day!

They tried it with the 86 first. The Supra was developed in response to the 86 losing that race.

Bust a nut , win a Supra !! Win win. Then sell the Supra (as new) , get something you really want

EAGLE5 05-13-2019 05:30 AM

That is weird. Doesn't do a thing for Mr. Peanut and hurts the Supra brand. Probably was fun to make, though. Mildly entertaining. Would Porsche, the Supra's supposed competitor, do this with the Cayman or Boxster? Methinks not.

86MLR 05-13-2019 06:18 AM

Supposed car fans are looking way to deep into a fun and very clever add.

We don't do oval banked tracks and I have no interest in American style football, but that ad is flouting around on Australian media.

Plus now I want "salty nuts".

Still don't want a Zupra though.

Actually we need more cool ads like that.

Oh goodness, then Toyota better watch out for the inevitable Nutmobile2.

Supra might then get roasted.
