Cool... still think the "cog" one is better.

Those SI's are pretty nice...

Yeah, that was cool, but Cog is still the best commercial of all time (and way better than that 1984 Mac commercial).

Excellent commercials, both of them.

I AM a Honda fan, and in part it's because they treat their customers like thinking people instead of market driven drones. I like that a lot.

This one was okay from a nostalgia standpoint, but Cog is still the best.

Yeah, I saw the Honda Tron commercial the other day. When I first noticed it on TV, as I changed channels, i thougth I had switched to Tron, but quickly realized that although the formatting was Tron like, I didn't reconize any of the cars as Tron vehicles.

Honda is great - I'm on my third now, and I'm 95% sure my next one will be a Honda as well!

Great Honda commercial. I love my Element, by the way. Great mileage, and there is a TON of space on the inside.

Since 1980, I have owned Hondas. The only time I didn't was when I came back from overseas and couldn't get a loan (sometimes serving overseas does bad things to your credit), so I made do with a Nissan for a while.

1980 Civic
1986 Civic
1992 Civic-1993 Civic hatchback
2000 CRV-2002 Civic Coupe

They last a while, too.

It does look light cycle-ish.

They need to make another Tron. But not OVER-DO the graphics.

Those lightcycle scenes rocked.

I was a HUGE Tron fan when it came out.

HUGE.

I've only owned Honda motorcycles (VFR700, CBR900RR, CBR929RR) if that counts for anything. Bought my first Honda vehicle a year ago (Ridgeline) and am very impressed.
Now if Honda did a Tron commercial with CBR1000RR based lightcycle, that would elicit a w00t from me!

Agreed! Pixar's first film with live action in it
