Take two Scandinavian fellows (I think), a biodiesel-powered 190 sedan, and what the old Ice-T record called “ridiculous jargon, shocking sexual audacity, and repulsive images of the ghetto”, and you have the above video. Warning: this isn’t even remotely safe for work. There is no nudity, but if your boss hears the lyrics you and your 190 Sport Sedan will be out on your ear.
Your humble author had a 190E 2.3-16 restored for One Lap of America a few years ago, but at the time I do not recall performing any acts of drug use, pimping, or thugging in it. It’s always nice to see young people expressing their enthusiasm for the three-pointed-star.

That’s friggin’ hilarious.

Impressive. Thanks for the laugh.
norwegian girls!
I know! What is it with some countries? The guys all look like regular dudes and somehow the women are all insanely hot. This (broad, sweeping generalization) rule seems to apply to Cyprus, Venezuela, Iceland and all of Scandinavia.
White and Nerdy (But I love it.)
Maybe you need a Pinto over the 190 ??

(Which I was told by an African American female classmate in 1998 when she saw me crusing in my Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Brougham sedan.)
Can’t top the Brazilian Nissan Versa ad. Not by a long shot.
That video is pretty damn offensive. With the way that those girls are waxing the car at about the 1:00 mark, they’re going to leave swirl marks in the paint. Oh, the humanity…
(On a depressing note, it’s a bit sad to find two Norwegian wannabe bangers who speak better English than most Americans do. Word.)
Don’t you go be dissin’ my homies in the teachers’ unions. They do a fine job instilling self-esteem in America’s youth.
And that’s the problem with the self-esteem movement: The kids need to have some sort of virtue or talent upon which to base their self-esteem. Most do not, so let’s give everyone a trophy for participating.
Ya, not offensive. Funny as hell, but not offensive. +1
Ya, not offensive.
Swirl marks are no laughing matter.
It’s a sad story. You can give a microfiber towel and an orbital buffer to a woman, but no good will ever come of it.
That’s up there with the original swagger-wagon commercial…which I wish someone would re-do with NSFW lyrics. Hey maybe they did, I need to go look for it.
The answers a rarely asked question; what if Pat Boone’s grandsons did a hip hop video?

07 COROLLA

This video makes me want to move to Canada, just so that I can have a Corolla with 180 on the speedometer.
Only in Montreal!
Edmonton, actually.
So tight you swear this ride was made by Jesus
Was i the only one that noticed that it was a 190E not 190D in the video, and therefore gasoline and not diesel powered.
Well, they claim to have a three-liter, twin turbo, biodiesel engine in the thing. Perhaps not all of those claims are true…
I’d put up a link to the pics I took of a very nice Cosworth baby Benz in the parking lot of the Concours of America but I don’t want to be accused of shamelessly shilling for my web site.
Not entirely about the car, but here is South Wales’ most famous rap group “Goldie Lookin’ Chain” with their song “21 Ounces”. There are numerous references to a their dealer-mobile, a Ford Capri.

Also NSFW.
And before my North American friends start getting irate about the quality of Welsh rap, please be aware that “Goldie Lookin’ Chain” is a giant piss take. They definitely aren’t “Fo-Real”.
Just feel like throwing this up now, 190e cossie pride.
