Default Gotta hand it to...

Honda....for their Civic Commercials....

i think they do a much better job of advertising the civic than the tC's one, mediocre commercial...

i really like how they flip the 'c' and make the honda symbol at the end, they music selection is awesome )postal service, MIA is something different...etc) and the commercials just look real nice....

we need to retaliate...

not sure if the Civic commercials
are better than Scion ones,

but they are pretty tight.
the music always gets me though.
when i hear it, i think of a Scion commercial.

The thing to remember is that Scion is selling every unit they can produce without a huge advertising blitz.

It's a delicate balance. On one hand, i want to tell everyone about how great Scions are but on the other hand, i don't want everyone going out and buying one either.

I do like that flip of the "C" tho, it actually looks like their brakelights...

Those stupid friggin Element commercials have got to banned, tho. A possum, WTF???

For real, that simple yet elegant touch on the Civic name fell right into their marketing team's hands. However, I see them concentrating on how the word becomes perfectly symmetrical with the last "c" reversed more so than it being a palindrome.

I might also add I can't stand M.I.A. and The Postal Service is overrated. Has Honda figured they've captured the consumer majority and now they have to market to all the hipsters out there??
