Thanks so much Wave, for posting that -- awesome! I don't watch NFL football, so I hadn't yet seen any RX-8 commercials.

You guys are welcome!! I love it too. To me they captured the coolness of the car with all the quick clips (I especially like the shot where it pans the interior from above) and they also captured the way many of us feel about this car too. I get a chuckle out of it everytime I watch it.

I love that commercial. My salesman said it reminded him of me, since I go walk their lot every 3 days.

What's the classical music used in the American version? I recognize it, but can't identify it.

eccles,

For some reason it sounds like part of the Nutcracker Suite. I am less than 50% sure of that though.

The background music is Tchaikovsky's "Romeo and Juliet" overture
