I apologize if this is a repost, but I searched and didn't see it anywhere.

This is a great video if you're into artsy car videos (I know I am).

I suddenly have a strange desire to own an NSX. Turn up the volume and watch this one.

Suddenly? I've had the fever ever since I met Tarantino's Mr Wolf.

Too artsy.
1:30 minutes before you see an entire car.
2:00 before you see a car drive and then in slow motion.
At 4:00 they actually drive the car for maybe a minute.

6 minutes seems to mostly be about piano and violin playing.

I've wanted one since they first came out. Make mine a Zanardi edition.

Wholeheartedly agree.

We should have 6 minutes of tire smoking, red lining goodness in that car.

How about Senna in an NSX at the track?

It comes and goes. It's a tug of war between reality and lust.

And I agree, it's a little too artsy, but I still love it.

Its a film that managed to invoke love, and lust in gearheads and laymen alike. It does an incredible job of explaining why we pour our heart, soul, and checkbooks into hunks of steel. Without the usual stereotype of a monkey banging on an engine and scratching its balls while hollering and farting...its magic.

Suggestion - stop watching porn, make a committment and get the real thing. That works on so many different levels.

Kudos to both of you!

This video could have been much better if it actually featured the subdued awesomeness of the NSX.

Fake violin playing, no less. Dude was faking it pretty badly.

That said, I liked the vid. The drama of it and the artsiness worked for me. Good stuff.

Philistines!

The camera work and lighting were beautiful. It may have been a little long on ambiance and a little short on the goods, but I thoroughly enjoyed it anyway.

Something about the music makes it "way more better". If it were any other song, it wouldnt work.

Agreed. Some very cool shots, lighting, etc. The track footage was especially nice, including the helicopter overheads.
