When Datsun became Nissan in America and brought over the all-new Sentra, a sporty coupe version called the Pulsar NX came along. Elsewhere in the world, this car was known as the Pulsar EXA, and— if we are to judge from this TV commercial for the 1984 model— the turbocharged version appears to have driven Australians right over the edge.

I experienced the early 1980s as a California teenager, and yet I never endured as concentrated a dose of pastel-pink/big-hair 1980s culture as we see in this amazing document. It appears that the "Shout" Pulsar EXA theme song borrowed elements from both Tears For Fears and the Pointer Sisters, not to mention Otis Day & the Knights, and as a result I'm now ready to install a Pioneer "Auto Earotica" deck in a Mitsubishi Tredia Turbo.
