Some of them took more than one take, I'm betting...

I like how you spelled Isuzu, the way some Americans pronounce it.

Video's just crazy! Just in case anybody was wondering what they were flashing in the video, it said "town's shortstop". Shortstop, as in the position you play in baseball. Only in Japan.....

Thanks for the link to the google decoder, though... I hate streaming video.

I found it quite spectacular when they jumped onto the roof of that boat and bounced off onto the road. You don't see that anymore these days.

wow!!! i wonder how many takes it took to get the whole thing right!

Amazing driving!

While the jumps and everything were very cool (the one where one car passes overtop of the other through the fountain is a favourite), I think some of the best driving is when the four cars are parked next to each and drive in a circle, or towards the end with the side-by-side drifting/handbrake turns. That is serious skill!

I wonder how many Gemini's they killed making those ad's?...

 

[CDailey]

Awesome video!


Everybody goes la, la la, la la la la la la la la

 

[nitro_2005]

what is the song in that video? that sounds cool!

 

[Vonie]

Pretty sweet. It's like that RSX ad, only real.

 

[nitro_2005]

what is the song in the video?

 

[mwoodski]

Awesome video, my favourite parts are the FF twin Handbrake drifts, and that insane 360 closness spin.

HOWEVER, the pink and blue gemini's were done a little differently, the two central ones were on a turntable, as they could never spin within their own wheelbase.

 

[Tornado]

How much money do you think Isuzu soent in that?

 

[nitro_2005]

er, can anyone answer my question please?

 

[mwoodski]

The song is 'She Moves' by Karaja

 

[Revheadnz]

Awesome video, the driving on two wheels down stairs and throught the alleyway must have taken a lot of skill to get it right.
