VIDEO: New Subaru ad does sexy Japan-style
Click above to view video after the jump
Subaru of Canada has shown its twisted sense of humor with this new commercial for the Subaru Forester that plays off the whole "sexy babes washing a car" motif. Instead of busty blondes, however, the Japanese automaker supplants sumo wrestlers who thrown sponges at each other, squirt each other with the hose and get caught in slow-motion replays while flipping their hair back. If you're eating lunch right now, put the fork down and make sure you've swallowed your food before watching the commercial after the jump. Thanks for the tip, Shari!

That's more types of wrong than I care to count.
Still laughed my arse off though, especially when the old people showed up.

though I think they have it right that the forester is about as sexy as a sumo wrestler.
new model is pretty good though. they should do one that takes the girl from planters commercials going into a plastic surgeon and coming out a hot model.

There is absolutely no way this could be shown in the US without at least 500 people suing each other.

If a group did a charity car wash at the local gas station featuring these guys, I just might be tempted to stop, for comedy's sake.
