Says Dougherty, We wanted to affect viewers in a more visceral way than the more traditional approach using images evoking power and energy, but with an element of fun and the unexpected. Adds Fong, The idea was to play up the senses. We deliberately shot the car and a mix of elements to create an eclectic mix that together capture the excitement of driving this car.

Intensity opens on an IS speeding down a highway, before jolting inside the mind's eye of its contented driver. Rapid-fire images fill the frame, delivering a pulsating visualization of the exhilarating driving experience. The sensory journey pitches forward, reveling in speeds akin to the most agile mammals and the feeling of leather as soft as a feminine palm. The senses collide, launching the driver into a driving experience so vivid, it feels as though they are, Driving In Every Sense.
