What is it about car dealerships and their obnoxious commercials? This one from Augusta, GA (Disgusta) takes the cake...
A Pimp, his Hos.. and wheels.. Shazaaaam!

YouTube - Augusta Pimp
This commercial truly epitomizes how ghetto Disgusta is.
This is a real commercial from Augusta, GA..
it has been parodied numerous times on youtube
Anybody come across other funny/obnoxious TV ads from your neck of the woods? Remember the Wolf Man and Donna of Gallery Furniture fame?

I've seen some crazy ones, but I'm afraid that one can't be topped, with the plumage and cleavage and the slavery references as well as pimp references. Makes me want to get my "butt in a car"!!!!!!

Thanks, Disgusta!

You are a racist do you know that. This commerical is not even real its fake as can be. Because you saw a black male making a joking commerical it makes augusta ghetto. And why do the girls have to be hos and where is anything about wheels even mentioned. Jesus i didn't know white people like you still excited. Im white but you are a racist. And don't say you aren't racist because you are. Anybody who see's a fake commerical then says it makes augusta ghetto is a racist. If the male had been white we know the word ghetto wouldn't have even came up. The owner of the car dealership is a old white male. Is it still ghetto now. Its amazing how the GOV. from New York can sleep with prostitues. Get young white girls from white males who are real pimps but its not called ghetto. But when a black male jokingly makes a commercial. Somehow he makes not only himself but the whole city of augusta ghetto. And i know let me guess your not racist some of your best friend are black. Give me a break

Take a deep breath, Matrixguy. You're going to have to learn to do what the rest of us Augustans do. Ignore DisgustaSucks. Lots of us live in the Augusta area and actually enjoy what it has to offer.

I've never seen that particular commercial or anything remotely like it on any of the local channels.

This is a real commercial. My family and I laughed at it every time it would come on the air.. There is a real Augusta Express Car dealership.. that's the real phone number.. the real address in the ad.
And it's pretty obvious the guy is dressed as a pimp with his hos in tow. If can't see it then you are blind.

Yeah the stereotypes being reinforced by this ad are pretty appalling.. My sister first saw it and said.. "YOu won't believe this." It only ran for a short time.. I guess there was a lot of negative feedback. I didn't catch the slavery references.. where was that?
I'm tempted to go by that dealership (it's on washington Rd) and ask them if they can put my butt in a car.. shazamm!

It was mainly the use of the whip twice (or the whip sound effect, since I think the object was a walking cane), and the "Dance!" command is somewhere between slavery and sex slavery.
