been seeing that third one on tv and it's a total mess.


it intros with the "lexus performaince line" ... "including gs and is" - ok, with you so far. then says "control is the ultimate expression of power" as the lf-a rips past the so called performance models. but then, it ends with it being the "golden opportunity" to see "get values on newest models" and they show is, gs, ct, rx, the last two of which are certainly not performance models.

"Control is the ultimate expression of power" is displayed by the LFA driving through pylons, except the moving cars are the pylons. There is control involved in all the cars.

The final scene is used for all the golden opportunity commercials.

My only issue with Lexus commercials like this is the voice over guy. He needs to be changed.

my point is that it starts with is, gs, then bringing in the lfa, then ending with is, gs, cth, and rx (and no lfa) was just a hodge podge, very un focused.

lexus commercials are usually very good though. just not this one, imo.

Thank you MPLexus for sharing the vids with Lexus enthusiasts. The ads are fantastic and it's great to see the LFA and Lf-LC in the mix. It's a great time for Lexus enthusiasts who can appreciate their continued pursuit to push harder.

People that own Lexus vehicles and modify them and are involved with the enthusiast scene seem to like them a lot.

Thanks for posting so Lexus enthusiasts can enjoy.

I for one enjoyed all the new Lexus commercials. Sure at the end of the Lexus performance line commercial shows the CT, IS, GS and RX, that's just a general ending to the new Lexus commercials. Most people will purchase the RX, IS, CT and GS but some will aspire to move up to the GS F Sport, IS F or even the LFA.

As with everything with life one can't please all the people all the time just some of the people some of the time...

Thanks MPLexus301 for posting...

Nope, actually it starts off with golden opportunity and the same set of cars that they end with. The hybrid dna is used as climax or highlight/attraction.

Beginning, middle, and end.

Lexus knows what they want.

it makes a lot of sense to me, they are advertising sales event and new looks.

Correction: The ES, both regular and hybrid, is on the website under the "Future" tab.
