It was for sports attire. Don't remember the company, but LA-something comes to mind. I vaguely recall Kathy Ireland might have been the girl but I may be wrong. Anyway, usual premise is a guy talking to a pretty, sexy girl; dialogue of one:

Guy: Why are girls always compared to cars?
Girl (pouty) Well, cars usually start off slow and then speed up; you can't shift them too often; and if you try to start them too quickly they stall.
Guy: (amazed) You are such a brat!
She purses her lips, and then nods approvingly with a smile.

The tag line was always the guy saying, "You are such a brat"

Does it ring any bells?

Yep, that's the one, nice detective work, dust. The one I described was so cute, the cocky, lovable way she delivered the lines. Is that Kathy Ireland?

I don't know who that is, but I'm pretty sure it's not Kathy Ireland.

Default i'm looking for a commercial too!

Hey, everyone,
I am trying to find a commercial, too. There were a series of them, all similar theme. One I remember the best is a guy talking on a bus on a cell phone and telling the person on the other end "Of course I bought a Motorola phone, I own Motorola!" The bus driver hears him and radios in that the owner of Motorola is on the bus... by the time they get to the destination (at which point the driver says into his walkie-talkie like thing "The Eagle has landed"), there is a party waiting for the guy. As he steps off the bus, the screen says something like, "John Doe, 0.000000000007% owner of Motorola".

Anyone remember this one? I have searched and searched on YouTube....
