The best commercial was the mountain killing the bud knight.

Kind of reminds me of this.

It's not like Brazil had any obvious advantages over China.

May I suggest a few keywords that might change your mind?

Rio

Havaianas

Carnaval

Garotas

what a bullshit post: it offended me, from São Paulo - Brasil

This is exactly the kind of garbage that make people abroad think that Brazil is only about Carnaval, women, beaches and Amazon forest.
And who often propagate that are people from Rio de Janeiro (an overrated shithole) and Northeastern Region.. Which are the most violent and underdeveloped parts of Brazil.

The problem was solved a long, long time ago. Modern vehicles can even be adapted to the same basic design. There is really no reason for a little snow to scare anyone.

Apparently Desktop Nexus is hosting some pictures that violate Toyota's copyrights. However, Toyota can't just send a letter saying, "Take down all your pictures of Toyotas," for two reasons.

1) The claim is overly broad and would affect pictures to which Toyota doesn't own the copyrights. For example, I'm pretty sure this picture wasn't taken by Toyota: http://cars.desktopnexus.com/wallpaper/11758/

2) As many others have said, it is the responsibility of Toyota to say which pictures it wants taken down, even if they are infringing. NBC owns the copyrights to Saturday Night Live, but they can't just tell YouTube, "Take down all your SNL clips," and expect YouTube to find them.

I clicked the first image that caught my eye on that page, which took me here.

This is a Toyota concept car, not in production. The first commenter even suggests its a Toyota-copyright-owned image.

Here are some of the images from that series, attributed to a Toyota press release, in Motor Trend.

Now, I think it is rather stupid of Toyota to destroy free PR and goodwill, but this is not a case of people taking pics of their cars in their driveway.

Check out the "new" images on page 3 :-)

But I think it would be more effective if people uploaded their best, rusted-out, 15-year-old Toyota car pictures. Or maybe something worse, like this, this, or this. The site has a whole gallery of photos definitely NOT taken by Toyota. Not big enough for wallpaper, unfortunately :-)
