Re: Gotta love the Quadrozontal Engine
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.

Re: Gotta love the Quadrozontal Engine
Heh, clever ad.
Quadrozontal engine sounds sophisticated. I'll probably start calling boxers that instead.

Re: Gotta love the Quadrozontal Engine
With apologies to Arthur...
This is obviously some strange usage of the word "relentless" that I wasn't previously aware of.

Re: Gotta love the Quadrozontal Engine
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..." dcb |

Re: Gotta love the Quadrozontal Engine
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...") Last edited by davew833; 11-29-2012 at 08:17 PM. |
