The Japanese commercial for the Lexus IS 350 is indeed nice.

Especially the Start/Stop button sequence and set-up. Amazing indeed.

I wish their download speeds were as fast as the IS350

Is anyone aware of a hack to save the Flash movie stream? I'm not aware of one yet...nor am I familiar with its streaming format...

You can do a video capture of the screen...

I know I can...but then I'll be capturing a video with lots of pauses and will have to edit the video to remove those many pauses myself. Too much hassle, not to mention the final video will have to be compressed again, resulting in a second quality degradation.

Maybe the website will fix it up if people tell them...I just watched the vid once, and the pauses are enough to color my impression. Nice video, but not necessarily worth the trouble IMO.

The new IS print ad with all the words looks way too close to Infinti's ad campaign. By the way, new Infiniti ads seem to be where Lexus used to be. Smart, stylish and expensive looking. What'd they do, swap marketing departments and ad agencies?

Keep in mind the server is in Japan. So even if you have a fast connection, you are still subject to the network latency of transfering data from one continent to another.
