Default Old LS commercial

Anyone have a link to it?



I got it in the Lexus email
Also, does anyone remember the commercial with the small metal ball they roll along the lines of the car?

IIRC, that ball bearing commercial was on a ES250.

I have the ball-bearing commercial, and I uploaded it to rapidshare...you can dl it from there.

I've been on the lookout for the original LS commercials, haven't found any of the original 3 yet...

1) 'Champagne glasses'

2) Violin...

3) Other

Hmm, that's the hard part. It might be too much trouble.

First, do you know how to rip a clip off the DVD? Or perhaps vidcapture the DVD? I'm assuming your computer can play DVDs.

Then, it's a simple matter of uploading it to a internet share file website...

BTW, where did you get the DVD? I've been looking for that for a while.
