VIDEO: Hanging Cars From Chains? Master Painters Educating Computers? A Car Tuned Like An Instrument?

Lexus' tagline is "The pursuit of perfection." Well, if you only thought it was marketing mumbo jumbo, it decided that it would prove you wrong. Several times over.

In fact, Lexus decided to produce a series of videos dubbed 'The hard way,' which displays how the brand is consistently pushing itself to deliver a better product that is highly scrutinized. Our hats off to the brand.

But the real question is: did Lexus decide to produce these clips after the highly published issues it has had over the past 12 months?

Whether it did or not doesn't really matter because it was a watershed moment for the entire automotive industry. 2010 will probably go down in history as the year with the most recalls, from ALL manufacturers.

Take a look at some of our favorite clips from Lexus down below and judge for yourself...
