Honda's Rube Goldberg Spot

Behold, proof that Honda's ad men, or at least the agency they employ, have a sense of originality. It's an ad from 2003, for the Honda Accord station wagon.

Again, it's nice to see a company not going after the "it's the perfect, reliable, economical, stylish, sporty, yet affordable car your family, single individual, or couple needs."

It's a very simple idea that ended up needed over 600 takes to get it to work correctly. In addition, two prototype Accord station wagons were disassembled to make the ad.

I bet that the engineers weren't too thrilled with that idea.



Now, if only Honda would sell this car in the United States. We need more station wagons here.
