I think it was Lexus. Anyway, there's a guy working on his Mac and starts to use the mouse to add electronics to his car. He moves the mouse and the pointer goes off the screen and onto his cell phone. Then he drags it over his car outside and drops it, which then makes the OS X drag and drop sound.

Anyway, I just thought it was kind of cool to see the Mac in the ad. They obviously needed permission from Apple. Even though Apple had nothing to do with the technology (from what the ad showed anyway), but maybe this is the rumored iCar partner??

I doubt that this is the rumored iCar, I think its more like a catchy way of showing that the stereo has a built in auxiliary input jack.
