New Honda Accord Euro Ad- the same guys as "Fords Fingers Ad"???

[alecrain]

Here's the ad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ys19q-mGN2Q

: Do you think that Honda tought that "Fords Finger ad" was so good that they hired the same guys to do theirs?

Strange that you mention this, i thought the same thing... JWT marketing did the FG ads - and the new accord ads are the same boring countryside, nothing interesting about the car, just boring sch!t for mums with kids

[XF Falcon]

You notice the ford UTE ads are always awesome! yet the sedan, xr6 turbo..etc ads are usually pretty boring lately

when i first saw that add i thought to myself, is this another FG add. i was surprised when i saw at the end it was for honda. is it the future of car advertising?

I thought the same... i thought it was another FG ad till the honda came up...
then again if you look at the ad what does it say about the car?
Does it say driving the new accord is like being on a high and flying around?
or if you go chronologically you have to be as high as a kite to drive one?

The ad had the same 'colour' to it as in the filters they used on the fg ad look the same on the honda ad

[kocho]

The FG ad is better than the Honda Accord ad IMO. Thats just down right woeful.

Yes, it's better to fly over the road rather than drive Honda and finger walk the landscape rather than drive the FG :

[TadKa]

haha yeah I also though. Ooh a different FG add. It's ok. not great. about the same as ol fingers.

[DayTE]

Same as most here. I also thought it was a different FG ad, until of course the Honda showed up.

[TickedEFSix]

I too, thought it was another FG ad...though I actually think the FG ad is slightly better! lol

[Nikked]

'Now targeting Metrosexuals'! What a ****er of an ad!

The Honda ad sucks, a whole ad watching some guy fly around and only 1 screen shot of the car itself. :

Some of the best car ad's I can recall is the 'must be stuck in 3rd', the one where all the cops are chasing the phantom purple BA XR8 and one in the Holden camp, 'create a storm' until it got banned for doing doughies in an ad ! Oh and can't forget 'flooded it mate' in the RTV!

[GS608]

anyone know where i can see the "must be stuck in 3rd" ad

[XR8putts]

Gone are the days of a V8 doing a burnout for 30 seconds with Acca Dacca playing in the background!

[DDXR6T]

I like honda's ad better!

[blueoval]

the honda ad is weird.

one of the better car commercials I have seen was from the new toyota hilux ad where the characters just nod at each other and each nod gets translated into funny sentences.

[TUF_302]

Im also another one who thought it was another FG add!, but of course a Honda showed up!

[castek]

damn political correctness.

give me a brand spanker G6E and i'll make an ad that wont be forgotten

[AlbertM]

That Honda ad was shoot on the Newbridge rd between Blayney and Bathurst NSW.

The rail bridge he flies under is just outside Blayney.

The euro ad is no where near the original euro ad where all the mechanics come together to make the car
