that consumers have the ability to spend as much time as they choose to
with an advertisement, while ensuring that they do not miss a second of
their programming."
Through a complete integration with TiVo's advertising products, this
new custom application will now let TiVo subscribers with a
broadband-connected TiVo(R) Series2(TM) DVR customize the new 2007 Lexus ES
350, learn more about Lexus' newest model, experience an ES 350 photo
slideshow, request a dealer contact to schedule a test drive, and locate
the Lexus dealer closest to their home, all from the comfort of their
living room.
"We're thrilled to expand our advertising relationship with TiVo,
making it more convenient than ever for consumers to learn about the new
Lexus ES 350," said Deborah Meyer, Lexus vice president of marketing. "TiVo
gives their subscribers the opportunity to control their media, allowing
them to tune into what they want, when they want and helping them to
discover something new. We believe that TiVo interactive advertising allows
us to reach consumers in an innovative and unique way."

I wonder if you the gas if you can speed through the commercials?!?

I have TiVo but I don't have the broadband thingy. :cry: and that would be tight if you could use it in the car. The ES350 is really nice. It has the tC's panorama sunroof as a option. You can kinda tell it was derived from the Camry.
