Default Cool Honda commercial

This is a OLD Honda commercial. but I did a quick search, didnt see it on here. SO.....
The two-minute advert appears as a single, long camera dolly along a Heath Robinson-esque chain reaction arrangement of parts from the car. It is in fact two one-minute chain-reaction sequences, carefully set up on opposing walls of the studio and stitched together, the join being at the moment where the muffler/exhaust box rolls across the floor (this can be seen by watching the floor pattern change). The advert took approximately 20 takes on each of five days of shooting to film, and only minimal CGI was used, for lighting highlights and slowing down the motion at one point. The cars featured, one disassembled for the pieces and the other on the trailer, were two of the six hand-built pre-mass production Accords.

HONDA CLICK!

LMFAO I KNEW you fuggers would say something about the tires..... I doubted it too, but with a little research.....
-windscreen wipers 'walk' across the floor, valves roll down a bonnet and carefully weighted tires roll uphill.

yea. that's pretty amazing. I thought this was funny too.

There are six and only six hand-made Accords in the world. To the horror of Honda engineers, the filmmakers disassembled two of them to make the film.
