Quicktime version of the commerical here Thank you for the working link!! For the uninitiated, the Accord that is in this commercial is a the Japanese and British market version. A bit smaller than the American Accord. However, the US is getting this car (sedan only for now) as the Acura TSX available just about now...So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

slotperfect 7 #14 April 19, 2003 Remember the movie Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? Dick Van Dyke was an inventor who had all kinds of gadgets to make breakfast, and other things around the house. The person who is famous for these kinds of inventions - finding a more interesting way to do ordinary things, was Rube Goldberg. I remember seeing the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang movie when it came out, and my Mom telling me about Rube Goldberg. I can remember a TV special about him too. The children's game Mousetrap is another common example of his style. This Honda commercial is definitely one of the best examples of this that I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing it!Arrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
