I'm pretty sure they aren't marketing to the 19 year olds with these commercials. The target market will definitely get the message.

I have seen a couple of commercials on regular TV, that included Camaro's, but they weren't Chevy commercials. Seems other manufacturer's realize the draw the Camaro has.

I think one was a Meguire's (or could have been another car detail product company) and the other one was Goodyear I think.

You know the car is awesome if others use it to help sell their car product!!!

Not a very smart commercial because the guy actually shifts gears on the steering column! He must have never driven a Camaro before.

And nobody here noticed it either! LOL!

If you're not 18, you shouldn't be allowed into a rated R movie, regardless of parent attendance or not.

I agree with you 100%; parents who allow there young children to see these are not showing real good judgment in my opinion. I have raised 4 young men who are now 22, 24, 25 and 30 years old; none of them were allowed to watch R rated movies until they were 18 years old.

I think it's saying, people who love to drive, love Camaros.

I'd agree with that.

No column shifter in a 2011 Camaro?? Must have been dreaming....

Both those commercials suck, best so far happens to be Brazilian

camaro'legend(ZL1) · 06-03-2011, 05:05 PM

wow .... really funny.... look at the dog ..he really think that he is in a camaro!

Troy2SSRS · 06-03-2011, 05:28 PM

The Brazilian commercial is ok. I do dig the song they play though.

The OP's commercial post, I like the dog emulating being in the car also and the fan blowing on him.

Funny thing is when I get into my van after driving the Camaro sometimes I put my hand where the manual shift would be and if I get into the Camaro after driving my van a lot I will try to column shift. Usually just the first minute I do that. Habit is an interesting thing...

I'm with you. It's just a case of parents not caring.
