Apparently, according to this ad, if you want to get eaten by Godzilla, you should buy a Fiat, because that’s what giant monsters want to eat. They’re like M&Ms and Skittles to giant monsters! (Although I heard Godzilla thought they were Minis, and he was so disgusted by the Fiat when he was expecting a Mini that he attacked the city and destroyed it. And that’s why he spits out the last Fiat at the end of the ad: because they taste lousy! {I guess Fiats are the Reese’s Pieces of cars.})
But whether you get eaten by Godzilla or what, you’ll definitely die in a Fiat!* That’s the message they’re trying to send with this ad; but they didn’t want to just come out and say it, so they used the Godzilla metaphor.
Here’s the consumed car commercial:

* (That certainly is what it looks like they’re trying to say with this commercial, doesn’t it? Unless you drive a yellow one, that is: then you get spit out, but usually from a much greater height. But this ad edits out the part where Godzilla uses his atomic ray breath to atomize the car after spitting it out; he almost always does that to the yellow ones I hear.)
