Damn Ponys! - Pôneis Malditos!

Origin

On July 2011 the car manufacturer Nissan aired in Brazil a TV ad of a car (NISSAN FRONTIER) basically the guy bought a car that had "ponys" instead of "horsepower".. it wasn't strong enough! He swears at the ponys when he kicks the car, something like: "DAMN YOU, PONYS"! Pink ponys appear from inside the car and start singing a song to make fun of him.
At the end of the video the poney turn out to be diabolic and talk about "The pony curse", you must send the video to ten friends, otherwise the song will stick to you brain forever!
