It was just a 3rd gen F-body ad to try and make the thing seem cool despite terrible anaemic factory builds and options, on an objectively uglier generation of cars, exploring the constraints of new materials and processes. I’m actually more into them than is reasonable, but mostly because they were dirt cheap when I was a kid. (i.e. 305’s were absolute junk, the rear end is weak, the t5 is too small, and the 350 only came in automatic, plus it handled like a tub with the stamped torsion bar and control arms)
