An illegible version arrived in my in box along with a bunch of other "Vintage" ads that are not so socially acceptable these days. Did a search and found this copy on the Nasioc forums.

Wow what a headline. It really was a different world back then.

Heh, clever ad.
Quadrozontal engine sounds sophisticated. I'll probably start calling boxers that instead. :lol:

With apologies to Arthur...

This is obviously some strange usage of the word "relentless" that I wasn't previously aware of. :lol:

Yeah, really... relentless? What did it have, all of 60 horsepower?

Great ad copy from the age when flight attendants wearing hot pants in ads beckoned, "Fly me..."

And all this for only $2196.00.

At least they didn't refer to her as Cherry Hill :lol:

Hahaha!

Relentless....

This advert has so many levels. I love it.

Sleek? Agile? Relentless power from a 1400 CC engine? This is advertising puffery at it's finest.

And I'm pretty sure I never thought of 'Subaru' and 'lushness of (her) interior appointments' in the same sentence until the SVX came along. Maybe not even then. (And I'm not even going to touch "take hold of her rack...")

"She'll carry you away as she reaches the redline of her tach" :eek:

(Wonder if they're in the quadrozontal position)

Phew! I gotta' take a cold shower.
