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.

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

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

That peanutmobile would have beat the 86 by mere peanuts.
They tried it with the 86 first. The Supra was developed in response to the 86 losing that race.

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.

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.
