Also, it’s funny how they were marketing front wheel drive as the next big thing in those days. Of course, now we know better but it’s too late to turn back

I wonder if anyone actually got turned on by that ad and actually drove their Soobie naked… hmmm….

So where do I sign up to buy that “Sextical Engine?”

I’m pretty certain that surveys have showed that 97 out of a 100 women are not attracted to men who use the term “quadrozontal” in everyday conversation.

So…if you had a straight six, then instead of “quadrozontal” you would have a “sextical engine”? No wonder chicks dig the Hako.

Maybe that’s why I drive Toyota: I don’t have a hairy chest!!

@Gen Kanai: Exactly my thoughts!
But apparently it does mean something since Google has 428 results on Quadrazontal. First hit appears to be correct, it features an image of the Subaru EA71 engine:

“1400c quadrozontal engine”? That’s some crazy marketing for ‘four cylinder boxer’.

LOL, great find, Matt!

Reminds me of this old Goodyear ad. “When a woman’s at the wheel, Polyglas means more than mileage.”

Or this Buick ad. “A… machine that a woman can admire and enjoy to the fullest, but only a man can really understand.”
