Fuck I wish I was alive in the 80's so I could have bought this exact car.

[HAXAD]

I wouldn't mind if this was a 1 minute unskippable ad on YouTube.

Car commercials nowadays: What is it, in driving, that matters? Is it comfort? Is it performance? Or is it the adventure?

Car commercials in the 80's:

How many scenes of the Toyota Corolla you want busting through the banner?

Ad Director: YES

[Anmatgreen]

Car ads nowdays: *boring ass story about how the company totally cares about some socio-political issue*
Car ads back then - *actually makes me hyped to buy the car*

It was 1986 and the camera quality is still better than most stores have on their security cameras nowadays

Hands down, one of the best commercials ever. Now I want a Corolla

[TheLastAnalogJunkie]

When translated contextually into English instead of literally, the song reads like this:

The Japanese have arrived, Toyota Corolla! Featuring attractive styling and power to match, front wheel drive and independent suspension! Toyota Corolla! It's fantastic engine is built to last the test of time, four cylinders and 1.6 liters! Toyota Corolla! Delivers power without skipping a beat, and handles silky smooth! It's great on fuel economy, but it can really move! Toyota Corolla! The best car in the whole wide world has arrived in Venezuela! The very best technology, crafted by the grand masters of their field! The Japanese have arrived, Toyota Corolla! Toyota Corolla, the Japanese Miracle! Toyota Corolla!

These lyrics are important because they signify the importance of the Corolla as a car in developing markets. The arrival of Japanese automakers, Toyota, and the Corolla itself are literally celebrated as a miraculous gift of reliability, affordability, high technology (at the time), and unparalleled luxury for a reasonable price by the Venezuelan populace. While some of this is also a bit of a tongue in cheek joke by the advertisers, it serves to drive home just how much better Toyota and Japan's products were than the competition at the time. In the 80's and 90's they were literally Japanese miracles in comparison to their unreliable contemporary rivals from the US and Europe.

Tuve la suerte de ser uno de los directores de este comercial, casi todos los PLANOS realizadas en Caracas los hice yo. En aquel momento aún estaba en construcción Parque Cristal. Recuerdo que algunas TOMAS las hice invirtiendo el movimiento del Toyota. Además, soy el Editor o Montador como se decía antes: Por cierto, un sábado, al reeditar algunas Tomas, el señor Fernán Frías me regaló una caja de Whisky Old Parr) Previamente, esa mañana, brindamos con media Botella de O.P. para celebrar el éxito del Lanzamiento del Carro.
