I think Misubishi commercials tend to use better music than other car ads.

I don’t care for that girl’s dancing, but my youngest sister loves it.

What’s that girl doing? She’s tripping _hard_, that’s what. She’s wired like the Eastern Seaboard. If she were any higher, she’d have to put a red light bulb on her hat to warn off airplanes.

What about some of the Acura ads? Didn’t Acura have Nicola Conte’s _Bossa Per Due_ in one ad? That song is so cool…

I prefer the two ladies in the Mitsubishi ad that has Bare Naked Ladies “one week” playing.

Oh the drool factor is High when I hear that tune on the TV.

I’m guessing this is the Eclipse commercial.

FYI, that song is “One Million Miles” by J. Ralph (a.k.a. Spy).

the best music in a car comercial at the moment is Sex Machine…unfortunatly its in a comercial at all, and for pontiac at that. I hope Mr. Brown made a few billion from the sale of one of the greatest songs ever written.

I call her “crab woman” because she reminds me of a crab trying to crawl out of a barrel (and being dragged back in by the other crabs). And who, or what, is that in the seat behind her? I hate all those Mitsubishi commercials.

I have to put a good word in for the girls boobs as well.

All I can say after that is “what dance? What arm movements?”

She’s there to remind you that if you don’t keep up on your car payments, the guy’ll come down and seizure car.

My friend at work is convinced she’s homeless and therefore dancing as payback for the ride.

He thinks the commercial would be ten times funnier if it was Tony, Paulie, and Christopher who picked her up.

“Hey, T, fucks wrong wit dis cocksucker?”
