Love my muscle cars and especially love my Camaro's. Drove my first one for 12 years and had a hell of a lot of fun in it too. Not all gay men are nelly queens, there are a lot of us that are just regular guys.

I totally agree with you, Gay folks like cool cars to. Camaro is a good "Family" car.

Looks real to me.

It amazes me to see some of the negative comments people have posted to the above article. Like I'm not going to buy a Camaro now or I'll never by another GM vehicle. Wow.

So if every vehicle made had a "Gay" commercial what would you do? Walk everywhere? You really fear the possiblity that driving a particular car could change your sexual persuaion? Some folks need to re-evaluate where their ideas come from. They've been programmed since childhood and as an adult they never question what they were taught, instead allowing themselves to become prisoners to the ideals, thinking, and values of others, and never truely thinking for themselves. So sad.

HAHHAH!
straight or gay, black or white, stupid human or alien...
tacky is tacky. i WILL say that. its just lame!

OrangeCruSSh · 07-09-2009, 11:59 AM

Come on folks. Who cares. I don't see anyone on here getting offended with "This is our Country" ads that Chevy does. That is the most offensive ad...but they are targeting a certain demographic that drives pickup trucks with gun racks in the window...I have a p/u but that commerial certainly didn't make me run and buy a p/u...it didn't target me at. GM is smart to target the Gay community. Think with a business mind and not a narrow one. All the gay people I know ARE LOADED and have money to spend on any and everything! Any and every "capital driven" business targets the gay community...close minded narrow folks don't. Green is green and business is business.

Heh, tell me about it, I'm a liberal and I really got to contain myself around here some times. I mean don't get me wrong, love you all but the "no politics" thing should go both ways if it's to be a rule.

Yes, I said "go both ways" :P

HAHA this keeps getting better and better.

GM: "We support the gay community and would love to let them use a loner camaro to promote "Gay Day at the Movies."

1 You Tube video later:

GM: "We don't support the gay community now that gay day is over. That video was in poor taste because it had dudes in it... now if there was a chick in a speedo it'd be ok. Megan Fox we're looking at you."
