nice

I've got to give it to Honda. They always go the extra mile as far as adverts go.

[Vendetta]

That is a great ad! :thumb::thumb:

[thisnameistaken]

I do like Honda, partly because of their ads, and partly because of their ridiculous robot development nonsense. Honda should merge with Nintendo.

[Tweaker]

cool short film :up:

Reminds me... there is a really funny Nintendo commercial out, I wish I could find it.

[deggis]

Honda is also good at making commercials. :)

[steve]

Honda only makes good generators.

Honda is a great company imo, probably the best Japanese automobile manufacturer, amongst all their other great products they engineer.

I'd prefer a Honda car over an American made car in other words ;)

[Frankmd]

Your not showing enough patriotism there Tweaker :x

Nice add, I like the old F1 car :)

I prefer my Honda over any car... But I'm biased. :x

[tristancliffe]

I liked the NSX. Shame they are going to stop (or have already?!) making the only good car they made.

Apart from the Civic Type-R, and the S2000, obviously ;)

The one where a guy in a Bowser suit's getting pelted with baseballs? That one made me laugh anyway :)

[Tweaker]

Heh, no haven't seen that one. They have another one where Mario runs out on the football (soccer) field and is totally compromising the game, was pretty funny.

I'll watch some of the baseball ones though... they seems to be on this page: http://www.nintendo.com/theater? (on the "N-TV" row, 4 little hard to click squares)... cannot find the football one though :(

EDIT: haha the bowser one is pretty funny :)

[Stellios]

What, no Teggy?

[Pootie]

[tristancliffe]

Disagreed - Civic is horrid to look at, and they type-r is driven by ricer wannabees. High bmep from the engine though, which is good, although a bit revvy for road use (not that that would bother me!).

S2000 isn't quite the car it should be, although I believe the new one is supposed to be a lot better, I just haven't read much about it yet. If it is the car it should have been, then I'll add the S2000 to my list, but right now I can't.

Err, I've no idea where you would get that idea from. I don't think your average 'ricer' is going to be able to afford a Type-R, and I've never seen one with any vulgar mods on it. You can't deny that it's a stunning machine, and anything that can put in respectable laps at Nurby shouldn't be disregarded.

Anyway, I'd certainly have one as they're supposed to be great fun. They are dull to look at though, I agree with you there.

If you can find an S2000 owner who says they're anything other than brilliant, then I'll concede. :)

What, no Teggy?
I know nothing about Integras, so feel free to step up to the soapbox :D

And to get back on topic, I should have mentioned earlier, that is a superb advert.

[Mazz4200]

Tristran and Durbster,

Dunno if you saw the Fifth Gear roadtest of the new Civic last night ?

Wow, the looks of an Alpha, the build quality of an Audi, and the engineering ingenuity from Honda.

Mmmm i think i'll be booking a test drive

http://fifthgear.five.tv/jsp/5gmain.jsp?lnk=201&model=32&description=Honda%20Civic

And you can even win one !

http://fifthgear.five.tv/jsp/5gmain.jsp?lnk=401&section=competition&show=s8e9&featureid=174

And Durbster, i agree, the Civic Type R and the S2000 are stonking motors.

[durbster]

I caught the end of it and it does look super funky. Full marks to Honda for being brave with a hatchback. The problem is, while that model does look superb, I'm not sure what the basic model will look like, with tiny steel wheels, no foglights etc. It could look quite odd.

[P5YcHoM4N]

The new civic is UGLY. As are all new cars. God knows what the designers are thinking when they draw them.

Jesus,those tips should be outlawed

[sinbad]

I hate just about every badly styled, badly made, gas-guzzling, overweight, rolly-polly, "but it's a V8, aint no replacement for displacement" yank-tank you can think of, but oddly enough, I don't hate Hondas.
What a wonderfully diverse world we live in.

Your just afraid of the VTEC :pillepall

Honda ads rule, and the guy that does the voice overs is amazing, i want him to talk in every ad.

[ajp71]

Nothing wrong with a VTEC, just shove it in the back of an Ariel Atom ;)

[Pootie]

I mostly hate the way they sound! If it wasnt for that f** muffler,I wouldnt have so much against them,I dont even like loud ass v-8's,very few v-8's and very few honduhs sound decent.. I think honduh boys were all titty babies when they were young,So there ricer's provide them with the comfort that they are to old to get from mommy now days... It really is sad. I drive a car with a 4 banger,cowl hood etc..,But with stock muffler,I am not out to draw attention to my self,Simply because I dont have tiny D*** syndrome... Any car's muffler that is above acertain DB level should be fined for improper equipment,but thats just one of those many laws that doesnt get enforced.. Edit: Honduhs are poor peoples economy cars

[TaiFong]

and the guy that does the voice overs is amazing, i want him to talk in every ad.

Just FYI, his name is Garrison Keillor, and he hosts a show on a US radio station called NPR (http://www.npr.org/) (National Public Radio). Amazing voice, yes. :)

[96 GTS]

The show is actually produced by MPR and distributed by NPR. It's called a prarie home companion, and it's recorded about 30 minutes from my house.

<edit>That doesn't sound like Garrison Keillor to me</edit>

Well jeez, if you want to get all technical. Yes, it's a production of Minnesota Public Radio, but the point is, A Prairie Home Companion is ON NPR. Oh, and that is DEFINITELY Keillor's voiceover! :)

Haha, that commercial had me laughing too. Both of the Mario superstar baseball ones are good :D

Than get a decent system for cars into your country. Here in Belgium a car needs to be checked and approved when it becomes 4 years old, when you add certain mods it needs to be checked again, after 4 years it needs to be checked every year and I think since this month a aftermarket muffler isn't allowed to produce more DB's than the stock muffler. In America you can drive whatever home-made crap car you want, so don't be mad at honda for that!


Oh yea, the ad is pretty cool!

[ajp71]

The new Honda ad is pissing annoying like the 118-118 spoof though :D

As for Hondas the new Civic is ugly, over 'styled' whereas the old Civic was under styled although I'm sure the Type R was actually a very good car when left completely standard. The S2000 will probably be a good car but who wants to spend that sort of money on an oversized MX5?

The NSX is a very underated car IMO and like the Mk1 Elise the original still looks (and no dobut goes) the buissness.

Isuzu Ad isn't bad either. :)

[Mazz4200]

Wow, was'nt sure what to make of it when it started, but, glad i did, crap car, but amazing driving :nod: , smacks of Rémy Julienne, (probably the greatest stunt driver of all time)

Crap car, crap music, awsome driving :D

Link ain't working...

Anyone knows a link to some previous Honda ad which had Honda lawnmover, hot-air balloon, 60's formula and some other motorised Honda vehicles? That was cool too.

Nissan Skyline > all honda's :)

But their ads indeed are cool :)
