Default Car ad slamming the RX?

Hey there... does anybody remember that commercial where a lady's in a parking garage and looking for her car but is surrounded by all of the RX 330's? And then she pushes the key fob and her Infiniti/Audi/Acura/Competitor crossover flashes and she finds it. I can't find this commercial anywhere!

I remember it so distinctly cause I thought it was funny since there were so many of the Bamboo Pearl 330/350's out there at the time.

When I first got my '01 RX300 I pulled up to a 4 way stop and three of the 4 corners were occupied by white RX300s just like mine. Someone here posted a pic with I think 5 silver RX330 in line for morning coffee, too funny.. It's a popular car, lots of them on the road!

Audi ran several ads along those lines. Video the OP is looking for (along with others featuring seas of RX's) is available on the ad agency's site though it's not quite the way the OP remembers:

I've actually walked up to the wrong RX a few times myself even though we have an uncommon plate design on ours.

I didn't pay a whole lot of attention to the many RX on the road but did notice a few. I believe four neighbors own them But since owning one I've noticed a lot of them. Lol. In fact in my.neighborhood there is only two that own American and the rest about 27 homes own a mix if trucks, cars, suv, vans by Toyota/Mercedes/ Honda and one Audi. Why would you own an Audi? Just kidding.

Did anyone else notice that the lady in the video is pushing the PWR DOOR button on the key fob. Of course the car won't unlock :P lol
