When we were 11 we had a bachelor uncle who proudly displayed a poster in his bedroom of a woman wearing soap and little else cleaning off a Corvette. We thought it was hot at the time but, thankfully, grew enough over the next two years to understand the difference between things that are sexy and things that are merely unpoetic attempts to allude to sex. Though not everyone, particularly people who own car dealerships, have the evolved taste we developed at age 13, we're guessing you all can see this local advertisement for a Saleen mustang for what it is: two unimpressed bottle-blondes in bikinis doing what they have to do to scrape together enough funds for that final semester of beautician's school. Though it may have helped sell a few more cars, this is only because the dealership is from a northern Dallas suburb, meaning it is even closer to Oklahoma.

The old company I worked for was out of Plano. Rotten lousy crooked thieving conniving cheating dishonest overpriced under-performing skeevy fucking bastards, they were. I'm sure they still are, just not doing it to me anymore. Not that I hold a grudge or anything.
Probably the car dealers daughters.
what's with the epilepsy-inducing "fades" between "scenes"?
Saleen implants?
Those are some bored looking women! They are terrible. ANd washing it inside those boring concrete walls? What the sun doesn't shine in Plano anymore? Would have been much better if they had waited for a day with sunshine and hired a couple women that wanted to be there. Horrible.
there's something happening inside my pants, what does it mean ?!?!?! :\
I wonder if Middlekauff provides "happy-ending" car washes?
Those girls couldn't be any more engaged if they were washing off Jabba the Hutt.
Saleen Mustangs have never been about subtlety...
I read the first 3 words of the title of this post and though "They found me out!"
@graverobber- Same great taste, new low price!: I think its something much worse...like an angry dragon and a hot carl put together...maybe a foot also thrown in there.
I think its also called a Max Mosley
Bimbo's on cars is soooo last century. When cruising eBay for my next money pit, if I see a pic with some half nekkid chic, I will not even open the listing, it's insulting to me, to women, and actually anyone that walks upright.
@MazdaEric: It's your special purpose.
When they sell the car there going to have to use that money to pay foor all of the lawsuits lol then they will go into bankruptcy.
I Have to say if it was from any other state other then Texas I would have been surprised but well im not....

It's funny... they look so alike and generic that I didn't even notice there were two different ladies in the shot until I read the comments and re-watched the movie.
The looks on their faces are disturbing. I'm beginning to wonder if they were hired or imprisoned in a concrete building and were told to wash this car in a "sexy manner" or else they would never see the light of day again.
@Ineterwebguy: I'm guessing you couldn't say anything nice?
You've come along way, baby.
That was some kind of pathetic.
Unfortunately, those two models are prime examples of what's considered "hot" or "sexy" these days.
@AllenK:
Although they may not be what you'd look to marry, it would be hard to argue you are not attracted to them, wether you want to be or not.
Reminds me of the song "Lapdances are best when the stripper is crying" or something to that effect. (Bloodhound Gang?)
The way the sound goes on and off in that commerical made me homicidal, and I was sitting there watching it. If this was on in the background making that kind of racket--the way commericals are actually experienced--that would be worse than a night in the box.
Classy
Well, (I) they (would) do (hit) look (that) a little bored (eating a sangwich), but those ladies needed a paycheck just like the rest of us.
The last time I was at the doc's, he had me do a middle kauff.
@rlj676: ..are always better when the stripper is crying.
one of my favorite songs, song of the century!
We should be able to take out that Saleen, and replace it with the 19K-Mile Datsun 240Z. Now that would be a good ad!
@StimulusCheckAsh:
Now that's a one-liner worthy of COTD.
Though I think there are plenty of other worthy nominees in that Senna post.
i think the director was attempting to use the flat concrete walls as a hint at what the girls used to look like prior to their visit to doctor breast implant
@Red AuerБЯд╒╒: I'm going to throw down a COTD on this comment. I actually LOL'd, it wasn't a full out lulz attack, and I wouldn't call it lulzy, but it did induce some loling.
Am I the only one that thought the exhaust note was unpleasant? It was actually annoying to listen to this ad. I like v8 sounds, but this sounded like a canned sound from some .wav file.
And yes those girls look pretty damn bored.
I don't like this sort of posing stuff as its so boring. The girl obviously couldn't care less about cars and is simply doing it for the paycheck. She'd be posing on top of a washing machine if there was a demand for that sort of thing (actually thinking about it, there probably is).
I think its because its such a mild form of titillation that its just gets annoying and in the way. Why would I pick up a car magazine to look at half-naked girls when I could simply download pictures of fully-naked girls off the internet. (Which I do. Alot.)
I'd be more interested if the girl in question actually had an interest in cars, not if she was posing on the hood.
I don't know what this says about me, but after looking at a video with bikini-clad blonds as a semi-exotic car, all I can think about is how crappy the production quality of that video is and how pathetic is is that somebody got paid good money to product it.
At the Clermont Lounge in Atlanta they have 80s posters of girls in bikinis with tiny headbands posing next to a Countach. I want one of those posters so bad.
Plano? Lawl, y'all!
to the "hot chicks:
you're so LAME,
you probably think this spot is about you
you're so LAAAAAAAME
you probably think men respect you, 'spect you, don't you! don't you????
end scene
This only sucks because it was a Saleen Mustang.
Envision this production, frame-for-frame, but with a 1998 Escort GT.
See? Pure awesome.
hmmm...
distasteful? sure
annoying? check
better than seeing Cal Worthington (and his dog Spot) in a bikini, washing a Challenger? yes indeed-a-lee-do!
Go see Cal
Go see Cal
Go see Cal!!
It's probably the General Manager's daughters trying to earn their allowance. Are you sure it's not Joe Simpson Ford?
haha whores
As far as North Texas car commercials go, I'll see your bored hot chicks, and raise you a cowboy on X:
+ Watch video
@reefer:
That's it.
Yeah, that is a great song.
Anna Nicole Smith has more energy than these vapid Symbionese Liberation Fembots.
-Funny, I used to think you could survive being a kidney donor but not a brain donor. Guess I was wrong.
Booor-iiinnng.
@rlj676: Before I knew it she was kneading my balls like two hard boiled eggs in a tube sock.
I'm a little ashamed about that.
I think one of the car wash technicians is actually chewing gum - nice touch.
@selfhatingotaku: "posing on top of a washing machine if there was a demand for that sort of thing (actually thinking about it, there probably is)." Walk into your local Best Buy - there's a demand for it.
They look like good clean trouble
Plano, the bedroom community of Texas Instruments and Raytheon, whiter than Vanna's smile. Yeah, these girls are bored out of their minds....it's almost like a Paris/Nicole thing.
@Matt Hardigree:
Whats wrong with Oklahoma? We don't have commercials like this. Our car commercials are just somewhat excited radio personalities talking about how great it is to own a Chevy.
Didn't I see that chick in the back of a garbage truck just the other day?
