Lexus GS 2005 Launch Commercials
Check out this Bruno Aveillan-directed Lexus GS commercial from the 2005 third-generation launch:
According to National Public Radio’s review of the 2005 GS ad campaign, the ads were filmed at a 10,000-year-old ice cave in British Columbia, an underwater trench off the coast of Oahu, and an atrium inside the Vancouver Art Gallery. The footage was shortened into three 30-second “James Bondian” spots named “Reveal,” “Ocean,” and “Ice”. All began with images of a daring, difficult pursuit, leading up to the discovery of the push-button start—a technology that had its Lexus debut in the third generation GS.

they have had better commercials.
The GS made me very happy when it first came out.
ooo… that brunette in the leather outfit…
I’m not a fan of the commercial, as it hardly shows the car. The button is kind of strange to have in the middle of a cave.
Btw, there is no such place called the “Vancouver Art Museum” its the Vancouver Art Gallery.
@Ivan: Thx for the info, corrected!
BTW the youtube vid is not the commercial, it is long-footage video which was cut to make the commercial(s).
