Default 3IS was on Project Runway this week :)

I don't normally watch the show, but I happened to catch the "Lexus Challenge" episode this week. The Project Runway contestants were driving four IS around the City to buy materials for the design challenge and then used the design of the 3IS to inspire their clothing designs. I understand last year they used the GS on the show in a similar manner. It was fun to see the various colors and configurations of the 3IS in real life. The winner of Project Runway also wins an IS 350 as part of the prize package.

Tried to find video for you all but couldn't. Here's a quick article: http://tvrecaps.ew.com/recap/project...xus-challenge/

Cool. It's too bad no pics of the IS or any reference to it besides a quick mention at the beginning.

Found the pics: http://www.mylifetime.com/shows/proj...-pictures#id=4

Here is the video. The IS first appears at 2:58 and is on for the next 10 minutes or so as they drive around the town to various shops: http://www.mylifetime.com/shows/proj...your-materials
