\n“Clean Getaways” – Click above to watch the video after the jump<\/a><\/small><\/em><\/strong><\/div>\n

\nControversy’s rearing its tawdry head Down Under as a Toyota<\/a> film contest has got some laughing, others crying foul play. The Clever Film Competition<\/a> solicited contestants to come up with 30-second commercial clips for the Toyota Yaris<\/a>, awarding $7000 (well, Australian dollars anyway) to the winning entry. And while the rules stated that the entries cannot be “immoral” or “contain any obscene language,” one contestant evidently felt the boundaries ought to be pushed a little. And the judges evidently agreed.<\/p>\n

The winning entry – entitled “Clean Getaways” – portrays a young Yaris driver picking up his date and encountering her father at the door. The exchange between them is packed with more innuendo than a porn star’s Lamborghini<\/a>, and though Toyota’s local spokesman says they’re not distancing themselves from the clip, public outcry has resulted in it being pulled from the contest website. Fortunately, we’ve got it posted after the jump<\/a> for your enjoyment… just don’t watch it with the boss hovering around. Or the wife, for that matter. On second thought, better watch it when no one’s around. But watch it just the same. Cheers to Mark and Oleg for the tips!<\/em><\/p>\n
