I think it is april fools and they are making fun of DIY'ers. So f@#$ honda for that.

Definitely someone in the HONDA marketing department has a HUGE sense of HUMOR!

I'm in. Where to I get a kit at??

Bah! I think it's hilarious and I am a DIY'er.

But yes, there was a reason it was released on 4/1.

Hilarious. Thanks for posting!

Would be funny to build a car at home, even if it was a Fit or another subcompact. Probably it would also be easier to find some dead weight spots while assembling the car, before it gets hidden behind the trim :thumbup:

Notice how most of the packages were delivered by drones? And, that cat marching UP and DOWN the background stairs?

Never mind the cat. It's a glitch in the Matrix.

Even knowing the ad is very tongue-in-cheek, I would so love to assemble my own car at home.

I've been to a Honda plant that produces the sedan variant, and it's a fascinating thing. With that mid-mounted fuel tank, there's enough flat space at the rear of the chassis for Honda to make a pick-up variant out of it. Actually, I'm wondering why nobody has tried, yet... perhaps the micro-van format is so useful, people don't see the need to fiddle with it.

You never know...

The most interesting piece is the tank itself, which has so much irregular space at the top (due to fitting into a very irregular space between the front seats) that it makes it easy to see how you could gain a few liters more space by shaking the car after the first fill-up. And the filler neck, going from the cap on the C-pillar all the way to the tanks under the front seat, has more volume than many scooter tanks!

Something like a "baby Ridgeline" would actually have some success in Brazil and evetually in Australia, but I'm not so sure about other markets.

that is a VERY funny vid. i liked how she would move her head when talking and then stare off into space and "dream".
"just like organic produce".

I busted up when she was filling the tire with a bicycle air pump lol

Reminds me of some car show I was watching where a guy built his own car inside his kitchen. After he had welded up the frame and suspension he realized he had no way to get it out of the house. He said the garage got too cold, so he moved the work inside.

Bike pumps take a while on cars...

Using Christians to get that perfect blank stare and smile was pure genius !
