How were automotive jingles still a thing in 1986? If there is one advertising trend we are glad has gone the way of the dodo, it’s singsongy lyrics to a pop music riff, and that’s what we have here. Sure, the third generation Camaro never looked or ran better than in IROC trim and was selling quite well, but let’s be honest: was the wet city streets, neon and “so much thunder under the hood” line truly worth it? It must have been, since Chevrolet moved almost 50,000 IROC-packaged Z28 Camaros that year alone, with a small handful arriving early with the L98 350ci TPI engine.
A little nostalgia is good for you every now and then…but seeing this is giving us a bit of an Eighties hangover!
what do you call the “Lick a Rock” series they have been using forever?
I dug the 80’s girls hair. They were girls, right? It was hard to tell sometimes back then 🙂
but, I don’t really remember the 80’s. Like they say…
what happened to the hamsters driving the toaster ads? Same thing there.
