Remembering Japanese cars from the past
I found another one:
It is a compilation of two other advertisements and that’s probably why I didn’t notice it before and thought it was a double.
It is a crossover of the Puppy saving TA63 Carina advertisement and another one…
Puppy saving advertisement doesn’t work anymore on Youtube, so I added this advertisement here:
Just found this 1983 Toyota Carina advertisement on Youtube:
Powerwindows, powersteering and stains on the seats? Sounds like a Carina MyRoad! ;)
Too bad the first video of the previous posting isn’t working anymore:
More carina ads I posted in March 2008. Perhaps I should collect them as Flash video files and store them locally here. ;)
Just came across this Celica XX advertisement from 1981:
As you can see the Celica Supra is being drifted through out the whole ad. Did they actually think in the 80s that a car is faster when it is able to drift??
Today I found this great tool:
http://www.labnol.org/google-adsense-sandbox/
It enables you to view which Adsense banners are shown in certain countries.
The great thing about that is that you can see different targeting per country. For instance: I’m living in The Netherlands which means that my targeting is in the best case some link to Nissan or Toyota dealers. Not a really good targeting IMO.
However if I’m looking at what people from the US receive makes me a bit more happy: “Initial D ringtones”, “Nissan Skyline R34 for sale”, “Nitrox RC cars”. :)
And I just removed the larger Google Adsense banner two days ago in favor for Yesasia.com banners… :(
I found this 1986 Celica advertisement on Youtube:
It features the TA64 Celica which surprises me: the A6 Celica wasn’t sold after 1985, so why advertise with the archaic (in that era of course!) A6 triumphs instead of the new FWD or AWD Celicas, or could it be that the AWD Celicas didn’t hit the market by then?
