Default IS-F Commercial Being Filmed in Downtown Tampa

My buddy who works in downtown Tampa took these photos with his cell when he went out for lunch. Apparently, Lexus is filming an IS-F commercial right outside of his building. Pretty sweet... Can't wait to see the commercial...





That's one helluva chase vehicle!

Probably just using the LX as a people mover.

Coool... This commercial is looking so much more promising than the 6 short computer-animated ones for the cinema. Can't wait to see it.

Looking foward to hearing the Robert Stack sound-alike introducing the IS-F j/k Why include the cookie cutter cars the performance oriented IS-F? The IS-F should be a solo act here.

I think the LX is there for street advertising because in every lexus commerical with parking and city driving, they always park behind or in front of another Lexus.

It's James Sloyan, veteran actor and voice of "Mr. Lexus" since 1989.
