Did anyone notice the new Honda Fit print ads? Kind of strange, with cartoon pics and odd phrasing like 'Greetings, humans!'. With the tag line 'Fit is go!'.

Kind of like the enormous Jaguar ad at the Javitz Center that read "GORGEOUS LOVES FAST".

Doesn't exactly make sense, but it makes you think.

Euro-spec Civic ads feature grey aliens

Edited April 24, 200619 yr by ZL-1

There is a billboard on I95 outside of Philly that says, "What would an Element and a crab talk about? Turn to XX.X (AM radio station) to find out." with an Element and crab on either side.

It strikes me as 1960sish Japanese. Weird indeed.

Thise aren't new

I saw one of those too on I-95 outside of D.C. that says the same thing. I didnt even bother checking it out...I figured a crab talking to an Element could only be nonsense. Now that you bring it back up, what do they talk about?

It is a friggin UFO, if you think about it... Look at its interior.

I don't think those even work. I probably would have crashed the car if I was driving, because I tried to tune in very quickly, becasue I assumed the range wasn't very far......and I didn't get nuthin! LAME.

These ads are on TV now, and man are they ever strange.

I see it every when I pass on the train so I have no radio. I probably wouldn't tune it for long.

I was suprised when I saw my first one: the car looks much better in person!

I saw my first fit today. Overall, not bad - bland like every econobox - but the front looks like it suffers from Down's Syndrome.

Or "Safe Happens" or "My Fast..."

I saw one for the first time in LA last weekend, along with my first Caliber sighting (my immediate thought was that the rear end design looked like a small version of the Range Rover Sport), and my first BLS sighting.

"It has wing, it looks like it can fly" will be a phrase that will hold a special place in my heart

the fit is go is speed racer ish sounding to me...or nasa engineers-all systems are go. its a play on words that capitalizes on the trend of anime and japanese culture that seems to have permeated the younger set these past few years...pretty clever actually but i dont care for it too much.

safe happens = $h! happens...not a fan

my fast = havent a clue but again clever commercials. not as good as slippery pete/ulee's(?). id bet hondas kicking themselves for missing that one.

far and away "gorgeous loves fast" couldnt be more appropriate or suitable for a jaguar. i likes that one

Me likes (or is it "likey"?), too.

The Fit is an alright car, though I must admit the Yaris is a better deal for the money. The Fit is a tad pricey. Last night, me and Ted were chillin, and met two Swiss guys studying English here in Canada, they were laughing when we told them we JUST got the Honda Jazz. Oh btw... Empowah, I still laugh everytime I read the Domesticated quote you have as your signature.

Being that the Fit is a much better car, I think it justifies the price... somewhat.

And yes, Domesticated makes me laugh.
