Could be a smaller file but faster speed trade-off? The videos are hilarious. Wonder if they used real cars or just outer shells? Looks like big budget ads. The guy also looks like Peter Stormare who has done many movies (mainly as Russian). Last I can remember, he played that Russian cosmonaut in Armageddon, starring Bruce Willis. Latest movie was in Brothers Grimm. Can't make out the woman though. Looks a bit like Kelly Lynch of Charlie's Angels (villian) Video speed much better but the resolution is a little poor.
