Cool ad! It's kind of interesting since (as far as I know), Honda hasn't really advertised the S2000 before. Have they?

It is nice to see such a classy, yet simple, looking ad for a car that rarely gets advertised.

Great ad. Exactly what I'd say if I was creative enough to think of it.

Yes it is creative! Hard to ignore a red button the size of a salad plate in a two page spread.
It is truly amazing that Honda doesn't really have to advertise for the car. So much so that I think they would add more panache to the ad by not even mentioning "S2000" anywhere in it. Anybody who knows even a little about today's cars know which one brought the "button" back into vogue. The "H" symbol would be sufficient.

I also think that Honda's slogan for the S2000 should be "art in motion".

Id love a copy of that ad without the fold in the middle of the button! would definitely be my desktop.

Koala does this mean that it wont start in gear?
Ive seen a lot of discussions regarding remote starts and most warned to install a measure that would not allow the remote start to work when in gear.

Great suggestion. My niece just remotely started her RSX through her garage door.
