Five minutes was enough to confirm my long-held feeling that Malcom was the classic one-hit wonder (Subaru), for which he happened to be at the right place at the right time. And it confirms that he’s the kind of guy I couldn’t stand to be in the same room with for more than the five minutes that I could stand watching him in the video.
Dean..you’re lucky…I, like Paul couldn’t stand more than five minutes of this buffoon…
Who does he work for and why? And who were those poor fools trapped in that basement rec room with him??
Hey 3 V baby…all the way…geezuz

I smell a conspiracy. Dean is right – this video has been blocked in Canada. It can’t be a mere coincidence that the video is blocked in the country where that taxpayer-funded financial disaster was built. Probably so we don’t let any other government back an auto manufacturer so heavily. Oh wait… maybe I’m too late…
The one legacy of the Bricklin SV-1 (apart from the odd one still seen around Saint John where they were built) is the creation of the verb “brickled.’ As in screwed over financially. “Man, we sure got brikled by that furniture salesman.”
I could only go 4:36 on the Bricklin family “home video”. I’m sure it all turns out good in the end but that opening “marketing meeting” is a template for every bad client/agency meeting I’ve ever been in and those never turn out good in the end.
At least I can see that Malcolm has the right stuff when it comes to picking a logo–a trait he shares with many a highly-compensated CEO in the big boy car biz. Pepper/flyshit can you tell the difference? I know, let’s ask the anointed one!
Far removed from the halcyon days in the ad biz lionized by our friend Bertel.

Bummer, neither does it work in Germany
Yes, well. Here’s a Bricklin-related video that’ll work everywhere in the world:

It would be nice if M. Bricklin would just go away.
