The whole AMC cast is here for '85 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETFYnNjPTtc
At 0:39 there is a Renault Fuego Turbo that looks exactly like the car my parents used to have, same color and everything. That was in the mid 80's, I was a little tike and remember it mainly because I liked watching the turbo gauge move as my mom ripped around in it.
That's so awesome to see the commercials... gives me the shivers ::)
At 130 on the timer there is a badge on a vehicle that reads "Turbo Diesel". I wonder what vehicle that was on? Those things seem to catch my eye.
I think that was on a Renault.
The Turbo Diesel was an optional engine in the XJ. A 2.1L Renault available from 85 until early 87....... I think
Always liked the Pointer sisters too...great cars great music what more could you ask for
I'd be excited too if I had all those Eagles and Jeeps in brand new condition!
A collection of 13 AMC Eagle TV ads is available on one of my web pages.

Well done!
Ya know, that little Renault didn't do half bad off road either...Its funny how the more I watch that video the more I want to go out and buy another AMC....or even a Renault for that matter....that's a very persuasive commercial indeed!
That was a long commercial! How many Renaults were made? You don't see any of those vehicles around anymore. Seem like they are even rarer than the Eagle.
