I know this is a Honda forum....but...

Honda sucks at commercials in America.

Have y'all seen this Toyota Yaris commercial? It is hilarious :)

I was watching Toyota Tundra commercials...b/c they make me even more proud of my truck :)

BTW...its the Holloman Air and Space Expo official truck! They let me park mine on the flightline when I work the Airshow!

Is this a setup for the Sonata? Or does it look accurate?

No...I bet the last video is real...but keep in mind...All Sonatas have standard ESC....which didn't happen in the 2.4L Accords. In this type of driving...the car with stability will always do better than ones without.

I like the Yaris commercials. I in no way would recommends buying one...but their commercials rock!

I like that Yaris commercial too. It's good in a playful kinda way. Pretty much every Yaris commercial I've seen is fun in nature.... I guess Toyota is trying to show how much fun the little car is. It shows Toyota has a sense of humor.

And that Yaris hatchback actually looked good with those wheels.

Another good Yaris commercial is the Tag (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzVjPumqkKM) one.

You hit it right on the nail. It was nice to see a commercial that is just fun w/o being crude.

I love the Ka commercials, too. UK auto commercials seem to have it all over the ones here in the colonies. Honda's UK commercials are equally inspired. My all time favorite is "Cog" (of course, I'm an engineer):

No computer effects, all items used are from the Gen 7 Accord, and it took 606 takes. Garrison Keillor is the voiceover. BTW, not too many Hondas in the UK, but when we visited our daughter there during her semester abroad, we saw an Accord wagon in the flesh. I would buy that car stateside in a minute. The space of an SUV and the performance, comfort, and economy of a real car.

Then there's this one for the Civic:

As a serious amateur musician, I'm alternately amused and annoyed by people who get so demonstrably into it, but the effect is really cool.

David Lynch Nissan Commercial (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkt8L0NtSjA)

Rally Car Accident (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deDMrEGOHjI)

Speed Kills UK (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxY5FsUNIGw)

Quebec SAAQ Commercial (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dy6Y79DgTkQ) : It says that accidents hurts family, collegues, friends, children. The Cop says that 80% of car accidents are due to human behavior and not misfortune. ''We can do something about it: slow down, keep our full attention on the road and respecting the road signs. Being responsable on the road is the best way to save lives.''

That's pretty funny...I am going to buy a Yaris now, but if my car doesn't do any of that I am going to take it back and demand a full refund.
