Instead of making an actual car commercial Pontiac decided to
spend 30 seconds painting a brief and very 80s picture of what
life is like as a Trans Am owner. Although the resulting synth
filled classic advertisement is hilariously dated, 25 years
later it remains a pretty compelling argument for Trans Am
ownership circa 1986.  What do flip up headlights, sweet 80s
chicks, and strange sunglasses clad men gawking at you have in
common? They were all features of the lifestyle waiting for new
Trans Am owners in 1986, at least according to this vintage
advertisement. If you were able to look past the 190 horsepower
(or less) under the hood, the Trans Am was your key to this
awesome 80s world.  In case you mistakenly came to believe you
needed more than an underpowered muscle car to live such a cool
80s existence, don't worry. The Trans Am owner shoots us a brief
but telling look towards the end of this commercial reassuring
us it's the car that made it all happen. Of course it was.
