cool vid. I remember seeing one of the commercials as a kid, the one with wine glasses tacked up like a pyramid on that LS on the dyno

yes, great video. I loved the history part about toyota in the early 1900s

That's a great find, with rarely-seen glimpses into the Tahara factory, and also vintage Lexus footage.

I'm proud to say i've owned 2 cars built in the award winning Tahara plant. My previous 07 GS350 and my current 09 ISF.

when I see stuff like this I feel proud of owning a Lexus.

Very nice to see. Although it's kind of ironic they chose a heavy-accented European narrator to share the birth story of Toyota and Lexus.

encore888

Yes, although that's because it's the kind of narrator Lexus Europe uses for multiple videos. Same as we have an American narrator here, Japan has a Japanese one, and a Mandarin one for other parts of Asia, etc.

That being said, the original Mr. Lexus, James Sloyan, did have a more European-sounding tone to some in Lexus' US debut ads.
