Anyone any thoughts on why they'd throw Playstation footage in there ? I mean this is not the first time - they had a page or two devoted to it in the "newspaper" brochure that you get at the dealer.

Are all Evo owners hooked on Playstation or what ?

I just saw it after Fear Factor too. I thought it was much better than the other Mitsu commercials

Just saw it for the 2nd time tonight, it is too quick, and they barely show anything from RRM/Irwindale. Actually, I'm not even sure if they showed any footage at all from the RRM portion of the shoot. Still cool though!

i anticipated the Nissan 350z commercials and the Infiniti G35 commercials for a long time. AFter seeing the end result I can honestly say Mistu did a lot better job with the Evo. I don't mind the PS2 clips as that's what really helped boost the enthusiasm or more so the awareness of the vehicle both evo and WRX a like. Of course I also saw a WRX commercial today that almost mirrored the evo except with the PS(2) hints.
No matter what, hopefully it'll let most people out there realize that what I'm driving isn't just a Lancer with a big wing.

Can anyone get a copy of the commercial uploaded so that the international members of this forum can get a chance to see it?

Thanks

Well, after 3 times trying to chase it down and 4 hrs of TV, we finally saw it!!!! My husband recognized it first... me, I'm not quite sure of what I saw!! I'd probably think it was cool if I wasn't trying so hard to decipher what I was seeing in order to look for our car!!!... Any news on when we'll have a digital version?

Can someone please record and upload it for our international members? I would love to see it, but unfortunately I don't think it will air on local TV here

Lots of random scenes, all of which are way too short. Can't tell what the hell is going on. And what was that at the end - a silver Evo with it's front wheels twitching to the left and right ???

Not impressed

it's because the film was sped up to give that classic "blur" look that they seem to be doing.

saw it twice during Fear Factor, and also a new Ende- Endea- En- aw, hell, it's too early in the morning to spell.

Was it as cool as the first WRX commercial where they show the Scoobie going thru turns and morphing into the ralli-car?
