DISQUS

Throw a Lexus under my tree any day and I'll be happy, but yeah, that commercial totally sucks.

I would like a lexus myself, if I ever get tired of my Corolla, but that commercial is just dumb... like "If your wife's parents spoiled her as a child, be sure to keep treating her like a little kid and spoil her too"

Chuck...

The ad is truly bizarre. One wonders how a spot like this gets approved. Yikes!

I don't own, drive or care about cars (and not planning to) so I can afford to find this advertisement somewhat funny. :) Yes it's mean. Mean works.

Sometimes strangling seems perfectly in order.

Mean only works (in commercials or in fiction) if the audience believes the person on the receiving end deserves it -- in other words, poetic justice.

Now, this commercial might have worked if the girl that got the Lexis in the end were the poor little girl from next door -- now a brilliant self-employed consultant, who was enjoying her new Lexis while or spoiled brat of a former next door neighbor was lamenting the state of her inherited stock portfolio ...

The only thing this commercial does is to convince me that I never want to own a Lexis.

Ha ha, someone's never gotten a Lexus as a gift! NYAH NYAH NYAH NYAH

Pretty standard for the times Chuck...let them put another hose in your pocket and rub it in your neighbor's face. Who needs a middle class?

well it's funny that in Japan you never see a Lexus being driven, you only see the original Toyota that was made. So here in America we put a Lexus symbol on a car and raise the price an extra $10k and that makes us feel warm and fuzzy inside.

BULL$HIT! That's what this commercial is. Another example of America's lust for material possessions to fill the empty holes inside their hearts.
