phuzaxeman Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 when is subaru going to have a legacy performance commercial in the US? i like the safety and awd themes but cmon, legacies are made for performance too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLegacy99 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Never, because they are stupid and for whatever reason they dont want to advertise in that manner. Personally, hearing the high revs and power of a car makes me want to buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crawdaddy79 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Personally I love the commercial with that guy who looks like he hates his life talking about the environment around the Subaru plant. Also the very fake (superimposed) deer walking in front of the parking lot at the end was a nice touch. It's almost like their marketing department are taking bribes from the competition.

t0ad Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 That's pretty much the worst commercial I've ever seen .. for anything. Ever. They can claim to be as 'green' as they like, but when the hippies that might actually care about that see the crappy gas mileage the cars get, they'll look elsewhere. They seriously need to fire everyone in marketing. I'd love to see more short and simplistic ads .. 'What good is power if you can't get it to the ground effectively?' *insert big tachometer revving to 7 grand and falling back, revealing 'Subaru'* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Performance....... It's a Camry & Accord competitor:rolleyes: Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilT Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Every car manufacturer out there has better ads than Subaru Double Award Winning Legacy GT Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudy Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Performance....... It's a Camry & Accord competitor:rolleyes: V6 Camry can smoke a lot of cars out there these days. You can probably hold even with an old 540i from a roll. It's nuts how much power 'non-performance' cars have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 True but they are not marketed that way........ Who would have ever thought Hyundai would have 2 sedans capable of over 140mph:eek: They by far have been doing the best job in the advertising dept..... Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!!

iyalla Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 What is up with the Outback ad with the animals screaming out the drivers name!!!! My god Subaru this isn't the Disney channel!!!:lol:WTF? You flip the channel and you get Audi going on about power, precision, awd and rallying. Meanwhile Subaru is going Dr.Doolittle on us:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vimy101 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 The best Subaru ad out there is the tire commercial that shows the rally shots. Can I remember what brand the tires were? No. But I sure can remember the awesome shots of that STi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver03 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Remember back in the day when the XT was in production? Thant ad with the car flyin through the mud and pullin up to the farmhouse. "Thats a Subaru"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meliaant Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I know I'll have noob tatooed across my forehead for this, but how does our GT stack up against the V6 Camry, Accord & Altima? If you ever catch on fire, try to avoid looking in a mirror, because I bet that will really throw you into a panic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Just be glad Subaru hasn't put out a commercial with two guys making out in a Outback or Forrester. Though two girls making out might generate some sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VXCL Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 i do think they need to advertise a little better so we get more options and maybe an actual sti, but i would hate for it to be to good thst everyone starts buying legacys MAYHEM #122/22 STS NNJR SCCA AUTOX4U.COM XENON RETRO GUIDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iyalla Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 ^Yeah just pray that they do not decide to bring the JDM Awd Camry (sedan and wagon) here in V6 form or its kinda over for the LGT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawdaddy79 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 ^Yeah just pray that they do not decide to bring the JDM Awd Camry (sedan and wagon) here in V6 form or its kinda over for the LGT. Well if they don't offer a manual transmission with it, it's not an option for me. And if they do bring it to the US, very good chance that will be the case. But I think there's even more chance of Subaru discontinuing the MT in LGTs altogether, so the point is moot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawl Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 meh. I dont want them to advertise it. the sleeper/surprise factor of the legacy will be gone. the kiddies will want one. my car insurance (low right now) premiums will skyrocket, and then I'll be a cop target. I'm happy, you guys are happy, lets keep it that way car for sale. PM me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawdaddy79 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I was giving directions to someone to my office and said that there would be a black Subaru sedan parked in front of it. They found the office, but even though they walked right by my car to get to the door, they never saw a black Subaru. That's how awesome Subaru's marketing is. When I showed them the car after they mentioned they never saw it, of course they were surprised that it is actually an attractive car for a Subaru.
