    Why does a seller believe his audience wants to look at a girl in a short dress falling all over a car? I'll give you a hint. "Pay no attention to the details; look at the girl."

    Vancouver?
    These were the kind of cars Sir Turd was doing before he was arrested.


    The girl was a distraction.

    It was the Motor Meister mention that caught my eye.

    I like the Porsche badge that is glued to the steering wheel (round peg in a square hole).

    My question would be "why does a seller believe his audience wants to look at THAT girl in a short dress falling all over a car"?

    The answer is...


    He hasn't researched or thought about who his buyers are; he just assumes all buyers are men and enjoy lusting after Asian women.

    Sorry.

    Asian girls.

    I don't know what world you guys live in, but every advertising executive knows sex sells. Maybe you don't find this particular model attractive, but if you go to any car show girls are draped all over the cars.
    Don't watch a Carl's Jr. ad or any beer ads either.

    Does anyone? Reminds me of the great George Carlin line, "I never had a 10. But one night, I had five 2's".

    I don't know about you guys, but from my memory, mine were all 10's, thank god there was no instagram back then.
    Although I did have one leave a decapitated chicken at my doorstep. The crazy ones were more fun.
