Ten Highly-Suggestive Automotive Print Ads
Posted by udugil08 | Filed under Vehicles
Sex sells and these ten highly-suggestive automotive print ads show how far automakers are willing to go to sell cars. The best examples come from the “Mad Men” of the 1960s, when men were men and copywriters were horribly sexist.

Oh Those European Girls
Though these girls seem to be avoiding this European man in his European car, the subtext is there: eventually all three of them will be frolicking through the woods together.

A Woman Yearns To Be Tamed
With lines like “Surround yourself with the lushness of her interior appointments” and “she costs so little to keep happy” this Subaru ad manages to be both suggestive and hilariously paternalistic.

Brand: Subaru
Model: GL Coupe
Honda Masseur
The translation is awful, but the picture tells the tale: buy a Honda motorcycle and the mechanic will have his way with your wife.

Dodge The Eternal Triangle
This ad suggests that you’re basically a sister-wife to the Charger R/T, and not the sister-wife your man really loves.

Brand: Dodge
Model: Charger R/T

Proving once again that copywriters in the 1960s couldn’t separate being sexy from being sexist, this woman doesn’t love you because of your “long, low, tough machine” but rather because “you have a very intelligent face.”
