Thanks for adding aquanuke. I quite like them - pity Lexus is no longer advertising this car on TV. The one with the rain was a little unrealistic - unless the top is near bone dry you'd be mad to retract the roof as all the excess water goes in the cabin and boot (I know I've tried it!).

I remember seeing a Lexus ad on British TV that shows a guy driving round a deserted city, he stops in the middle of a square, gets out and suddenly the place is full of people. Think it's to show how quiet the car is - does anyone remember this ad or was I dreaming it! I was sure it was for an SC430 but again I could be wrong.

I remember that, was quite a classy advert. Not 100% sure it was the SC...

Could'nt find it but came across this which says it was an SC430

Does anyone know the title and artist of the Sigur Ros/Radiohead/Coldplay-sounding song used in the new Lexus SC430 advert? That's the one with the bloke driving through a silent, empty town until he opens the driver's door and the streets become flooded with people.

Music in that ad was by Martin Grech. When Mark & Lard were on Radio 1 they played it a lot, and kept asking for a free Lexus.
