Chevrolet targets gay demographic with new Camaro marketing effort
AutoBlog ^ | July 8, 2009 | John Neff

Posted on 07/09/2009 5:40:40 PM PDT by Sam_Damon

...A video was produced to promote Gay Day at the Movies featuring a pair of "Bumblebee Boys" in Camaro-branded briefs washing the Bowtie brand's pony car revival. The cheeky (pardon the pun) video is clearly targeted at the gay community and uses beefcake car washers to that effect in a not-so-subtle way.

Doesn’t matter. GM and Chrysler are out of my buying list anyway.

Not because of gays.

Because I will never purchase things controlled by idiots who I’d never hire to fix my toilet.

As if GM couldn’t damage their brand any further.

This would sure entice me to go out and purchase a GM car. /s

What is wrong with this, it is just the Democrat party promoting its products to it's supporters. I mean why would they be promoting them to Middle class God fearing gun toting Republicans.
The new GM has about two years of life left.

I once owned a ‘74 Impala. The only GM vehicle I have ever owned.

The trunk leaked.

LOL!

I always suspected that Camaro owners were switch hitters.

Apparently GM thinks so too.
Either that, or they are determined to kill the model.

2011 at the latest, I base this on the fact that by the time the 2010 Congressional elections get here, the curtains covering Obama Mania will have opened and people will not like what they see. What is kinda funny is the main suck-ups, the media, will contribute to the Republican turnaround. The media reports on things like expensive purses, the travel for dinners, and other stuff that the media thinks is darling will create a backlash against the Dems and Obama. Add to this the fact that you have 13 Democrat Senators over 70 years of age and they also have the 5 oldest + 1 brain dead. You have 35 Democrats in the House who will be 70 or older at the next elections. So I figure that within the next year or so we will have some deaths and retirements on the Democrat side. The combination of all of this will mean better chances for Republicans to re-take the House and possibly the Senate. And before you doubt this statement, remember the next election will be completely about the economy.

I'll never buy a Big 3 car, but let's be fair; the "domestic" auto industry has always included Canadian manufacturing. Look up "Auto Pact."
