Only wish this had more of that sax, and those DooDaDoo girls. That's America, baby.
Very intertaining write up on the conservative Honda guys buying into this commercial. "THAT's the scooter we want to sell!"

It didn't make me want to ride, it did make me not want to go to NYC though.

Wonder if the people who commissioned that ad were familiar with the lyrics...?
Buy a scooter, dress up in drag, get stoned and suck some cocks.
Not the best sales message.

One of the worst ads ever - had no idea what was being advertised until the end and showed some of the worst things about any country - arguing, bad graffiti and billboards, etc. Reminded me of Alan Sugars apprentice (crap show) where they go out in teams, think of an ad, come back and show their work and Alan says, in so many words 'wtf was that about, missed the point, waste of time'. Hard to believe Honda actually approved that.

All I can say after watching that is how glad I am to be in Idaho rather than New York!
