Well I already recieved a reply. Read on:
Dear Mr. Rust,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback about Mr.
Herrington's ad for the G-Timer. I can certainly understand where you
are coming from and would like to apologize on behalf of the company for
offending you in any way. Mr. Herrington in no way, meant to be hurtful
in that advertisement. However, I can definitely see how it could be
taken that way if you are a fan of the Opel GT. Please be advised that I
have passed your email along to my Supervisor so that she is aware of
how you feel. Once again, thank you for writing.
Sincerely,
Courtney

So this is how you try to attract cusomers? By slamming on their cars?
Not that smart in my opinion. I happen to be a proud owner of an Opel
GT. Yes they have a 1.9L 4 cylinder engine. They are not meant to
compete with Big V-8's. Look, I'm not here to defend my car, you have
your right to your opinion. Just wanted to let you know it's not good
advertising practice in your business to tell people they have a car
that nobody cares about.
I will never buy anything from you, and I'm guessing my fellow Opel
enthusiast will agree with me.
Good day,
George Rust
