Toyota Corolla Lovestruck "Worthy Of Your Devotion" Car Print Ad 2007 2000s

Toyota wants the Corolla to inspire the kind of devotion people usually save for a first love, and this 2007 ad stages the joke literally. A young man with an arrow through his shirt hugs the hood of a red Corolla, struck by cupid's aim. The overhead street scene, full of long shadows and city grit, gives the gag a cinematic feel. It is witty mid-2000s car marketing that sells an affordable compact with humor instead of specs.
