as cool as that looked its not real. Those parts you see moving, there no way some of them can have that much momentum. For example, Its not possible for wheels to go UP a ramp by itself, its physically impossible. The rolling muffler, in real life, would have stopped the first flip, and it flipped like 5 or 6 times? The opening door window, notice theres a piece of wood going right through it that the round metal thing is rolling on, how is that realistic? hehe jus my 2 cents...:D

It's not all real, some of it was computer generated.

but it's still ubercool

i know i mean't like how long did it take for them to set it up on a computer....they must have used 3D studio Max or something like that..

I bet the Honda engineers could pull that off in real life. Dunno whether they *did* or not...

The thing that bugs me the most is the valve rolling off the hood. How accurate is it where it lands?

k the things that bug me r 1 the tires rolling up ramp, a litle nudge from the tire behind cant give it that much momentum 2 there was this little rubber or maybe metal thing that hit just the rubber tire and the tire startd rolling slow to fast, again it wouldnt get it moving.. notice how when the metal thing hit the muffler, it didnt move, then started off slow then started speeding up? i don beleive that one bit and i dont understand how the wheels turned at the end without a driver?

Do you guys get the idea of the commercial though??? for instance...

AS Jay mentioned earlier... the weights in the wheels....

The seats... when the fold back, notice the storage compartment under the seat?...

When the head is on the teater-totter like thingy and it' lighter than the battery... ( :eek: FU*KIN AMAZING :eek: )


The water sensing windshield wipers....


Everything they show, has a meaning, EVERYTHING. They're just showing all the features of the car, I guess

TO ALL THOSE WHO FIGURED IT WASN'T REAL:

You're wrong. It took 606 takes, and jay's right, there's a weight in each wheel so that it's perfectly balanced and a slight impact would cause it to accelerate uphill.

And that's no typo, 606 takes!!!

Although the link doesn't work... I have seen this advert on TV already.

It is without a doubt one of the best car adverts EVER.
