Challenger TV ad

I saw a Challanger only ad on TV last night.
I forgot what channel, but but I wonder when GM will do a Camaro only ad.

The one with George Washington driving a Challenger into battle against the british? I love it.

Dodge had the "Got a Hemi" line of commercials a few years back. Why can't GM come up with stuff like this? They haven't had anything good since the old Trans Am commercial where it comes up behind some exotic (Ferrari maybe?) and sucks it thru the intake and spits it out the tailpipes...

Because Transformers WAS our ad... that's how badass the Camaro is; we don't have commercials, WE HAVE MOVIES

LOL... on a serious note, I would like to see an actual commercial for the Camaro.

You know how bad your car is selling when you start seeing ads for it. The Camaro needs no ads because the sales couldnt be better. I mean 100,000 cars in the first year and 60% of those were the highest performance V8 version. Has that even been done before in the history of the car? Anyone notice how many Mustang ads there are? Alot, and thats because the 2010 did not sell very well. Same goes for the Chally.

The 1st gen camaro sold over 160k each year. '94 and '95 sold ~120K a year.

That is totally wrong, i see Accord, Silverado, F-150, Malibu, and fusion Commercials, all of which sells around 1.5-twice, even 4 times as many sales as the Camaro. Commercials are just a good way to increase sales and BTW, Mustang has outsold Camaro for the last 2 months by a wide marking and CHallenger is now ahead of it's sales goal so far.........

Agreed, great job by Dodge, love the Challenger ad..

I hate that on the Mustang add they plaster the word "TRANSFORMED" on their ad - geez, they couldn't be original and come up with another adjective to describe their new ride.

Come on, we all know which brand was TRANSFORMED now, don't we. And it wasn't the Mustang..

Well actually it was. The police car was a Decepticon and it played a pretty good part (Somehow people forget this). I have had both and love my new Camaro just as much as the last 6 Mustangs.
By the way Dodge, Love that commercial. Anyone who knows sales understands why you advertise. The eye candy gets the customer in the store regardless if they are buying that vehicle or not. I personally would love to see all three do a commercial together saying "We're Back" "American Made: stronger, faster and more desirable than ever" "Get you some" !!!!!! Go USA!
