I can't stand this commercial....Sign of the times perhaps. Smug prick put off by almost running a guy over who drops his papers, then gives him a douche wtf look, drives over the other guy's papers, etc., etc. I can't believe Lexus Corp or whoever is ok with this type of ad...

Is Lexus vying for the title of most self-absorbed douche owners or something?

They certainly embraced the idea of making extremely ugly cars. The grill is hideous on the whole line up, especially on their new halo car. Yuck!!!

Indicative of today's society. Smug, pretentious, self absorbed, and unaccountable. Accomplishment is now based on self elevation, and not cultural and societal achievement. Insulting, berating, and alienating others is much easier than questioning, assisting, and befriending these days. Marketers know what sells. Douche baggery sells.

Drive a Lexus and you'll have your shit together more than these boners who are smashing their heads on drawers and dropping papers in the street.

Funny, I didn't see his facial expression as smug. I saw relief. I guess people see what they want to see.

Except they show him drifting into the next lane in the next scene.

Yes, the misfortunes of others must be overcome and avoided with an urgent righteous, smug, selfish attitude and reflected with your Lexus car purchase.

Heaven forbid one should take a few seconds out of their precious life to give a guy a chance to pick up some of his papers off the street, which might have had some importance to him or his career perhaps...Just get him out of the way with a wtf gesture and expression and run through asap...Why try and help at all?....After all, you're driving a Lexus!...Screw everyone else!

Wow, my LS3 was 355 rwhp from the factory. I didn't realize it took all those performance mods on a L99 to only get 10 more hp.

Additionally, don't forget Audi and Volvo.
