And I am not the real Juan Cabral, guys. So sorry for that!
I have mixed feelings about this campaign. You could easily (insert product name here) and it would be the same. However, it is a truism for Honda. And even though this is a pretty pedestrian concept, they gave it a name and claimed it as their own. Which is pretty cool.
Overall though, I wonder if the campaign is a little too subtle, and precious ?

Well here goes the idea to have a car that would get you out of the crowd. Back to Ford-T? One model for all, one brand for all. Wrong message. Should be "You're privileged, you drive a Honda"
