RDX commercial

Anybody see the new ( to me) RDX commercial. Starts off showing the motor on a stand next to a big cylinder in a large room, then shows the red stuff in the cylinder getting sucked out. All while the narrator talks bout the turbo. Ends with a maroon colored RDX in the last shot. Did a search but could not find anything to link yet.

I've seen the last half of it and missed all the narration (twice)...is it just "showing off" the turbo? Err that the RDX has a turbo?

Still looking for this Vid.
In this world of viral video everything should be accessible to the consumer. There is a “Elliot L. Scheiner works with Ozomatli” Vid on Acura’s facebook page, but no turbo Vid! WTF?
Is Acura going for the snob appeal or is their marketing department stuck in the 90’s?

Well not so borring, I forgot what the stock RDX sounded like! Oh, the types of comunication involved here: educational & pursuasive. But, I, didnt see any sensor connections or ecu so this is CG.

Okay, I'll get anal-a-lytical for sake of discussion..lol. looks to be plugged into a living room wall oulet. The fuel? Once the air was sucked out the compresser/engine would stall.

Damn... I wanna snort some of that red stuff too! It Looks evil... And It's also kinda like how they make CLR commerials look refreshing as they pour it into a toilet.

REminds me of the new ford commercial tiny drops of gas...LMAO... keep trying, the ladies out there, they gobble it up!

I uploaded the video on youtube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hEE2onkokE

im buying this setup for my basement lol

btw i was flooring the shit out of my rdx the whole way home today, so much damn fun. didnt notice this before, but the engine pulls really hard at 4500rpm, im guessing thats the vtec threshold? try crusing at 2500-3000 rpm and then WOT you will notice more pull at 4.5krpm...at least i did?!

^Thanks. You gotta give props to whomever comes up with these ad ideas (TL bullet was highly successful in cyberspace too). However it almost seems like that big push in advertising (2009-10) has slowed up a bit now.

Yeah, it's almost like now that they have a lineup more worth looking at, they're not getting the word out. Back when the beak was killing the aesthetics of all the cars, they were advertising like crazy to try and get people into the dealerships...

So the typical auto consumer watching this is thinking: "Huh? So it sucks a buncha red stuff outa a big can? Why do I want my car to do this?"

The auto enthusiast watching this is thinking: "Big deal, I already know that internal combustion engines are air pumps. It's meaningless without a comparison. Hook up an Audi 2.0 TFSI side-by-side if you've got something to prove."

The wiseguy is thinking: "Are they trying to tell us that Acura engines suck?"

Thanks for sharing that guys, I never saw that one on tv. Got the family to watch it, they all liked it and yes they get the message. They know that when daddy puts his foot down, things start happening rather quickly in the rdx.
