Months, after 600something tries.

Im sorry guys but I have to raise the bs flag on that one. Maybe some of it was done in parts? I doubt all of it was in one shot and some of that wasn't realistic at all. Can someone explain how the tires could exert so much force on an incline by bumping into each other? Maybe on the moon but here on earth things move down a lot easier than they do up. Besides, look what site this is on. Nowhere does it OFFICIALLY say it was not computer animated. That page probably just belongs to some joe shmoe that gets it for free off his cable company. Just take the honda.html URL off the site and you get http://myweb.cableone.net/gryphon/ which could be anybody. I think that was about as real as the wrestling you see on TV

It is real. It was on the news. The reason why it doesn't air is because it is a 2 minute commercial and not many people understand what the parts are for and probably doesn't even know it's a car commercial till the last part where it shows "Honda". The site blkgost got the link from is not Honda because Honda doesn't show the commercial anymore.

A search on MSN came up with this:

I don't doubt that its a Honda commercial nor do I doubt that it is real and has been aired. There are tons of commercials for just about any car on their respective websites and some I have seen are up to 5 minutes long and sometimes even longer. I know that the guy with the cable website didn't make that up himself, someone would have to be pretty lame to make a Honda commercial at their leisure. I didn't add this in my last post but I think it could have taken 606 tries in sections but the sections were not all filmed together. I still think its somewhat bs because I still think its physically impossible for wheels to be barely touched and then roll up an incline with ease. If that were the case people would just push my car up a hill (or tap the tires) instead of driving it. Like I said, they roll into each other like it happened on the moon. If you find a part either in the link you provided or on another reliable site that explains some of this please share. I found one diagram that shows the sketches but I can't upload the screen print on to howardforums due to the file size and the fact that I am at work and can't upload it to my site either.

ok
not everything is what it seems
the whole thing is shot at 1 time but stuff were 'modified', in a way.

the reason why the tires did that cause they are weighted on the inside. so just the slightest push can send it rolling with force since its weighted to do so on the inside.

i read this long article on how did they it and bla bla.

perfect commercial for honda.

no one really knows the egineering know how that honda has compared to other companies.
