Has anyone else seen this yet?

I've seen it on channel ten a few times... really makes me laugh..

Its basically a pisstake on Thomas The Tank Engine..

You have to see it to believe it!

Yeah, the other day. Very cool.

Yeh, i saw it too... I thought I was watching Channel 2 or something.. pretty funny and a stark contrast to "Cogs" (the Accord Euro ad) But at least it shows they target demographics properly!

did it have graphics? looked all yellow to me.

Hehehe...again Honda charm us with there advertising... love it!

Not as amazing as the cogs... but easily makes up for it in being funny as all hell! :lol:

"They might have fainted when they saw the price... but they were cars, not people!" :tu:

cogs is CGI. Clever, but computer generated.


Schmoburger - April 4th, 2006 at 10:58 PM

really??? :(

I heard that they went to great pains and spent a buttload of cash setting it up as a fair-dinkum excercise in precision mechanics.... :D

very disappointed if you are correct ccc.. :cry

Well that' what I read on a Cinemaxx forum....but then there's this....http://www.snopes.com/autos/business/hondacog.asp

Find it real hard to believe that there aint smoke and mirrors....maybe the un-pimp mine auto is real too? Damn computer geeks. Have a mate that's just bought an Accord...bloody nice car...but then I'm not that used to riding in nice cars, so I'd probably be impressed with the Jazz too. 'Oh wow, a heater! does it work? ... wow it does, and the dial actually alters the temperature too'.

HAHAHAHHAHAA

Honda's are nice...but I'll take my bus anyday..LOL

I feel to cramped in most honda's... my mate brought his recently bought Prelude over last weekend... is very comfy... but too small and low... :(

Tho I do love the nice solid crunchy gear shifting and the 4-wheel steering :tu:

My other mates Civic is an exception...dickloads of room up front... but next to no boot! :lol:
