Honda NZ TV Commercial featuring Kiri Te Kanawa

Great ad! I picture Kiri now driving an Orange Element...loaded with fishing gear in the back, still her great music on the CD!!!!

Wow! Thank you so much for sharing this!!!

Cool :) Thank you.

Isnt that Raewyn Blade in first 10 seconds of the commercial?

@Wavewolfaroha You know it but not orange but the brightest canary yellow or nice woodland camo 4x4 with a 16" lift kit covered in mud on her way to the bank to do some major fishing for steelhead or some coho @ Denali National Park. Thats how a Diva rolls!

@RRydnew If they made the Element in canary yellow, I would have it now!!! Tried to special order this color, but only available in their del Sol sports coupe, not obsolete. Unfortunately they don't do camo (yeah, I thought about "wrapping" my Element in woodland!). Maybe I have some Diva blood in me?! LOL

@Wavewolfaroha You must not be in the USA. Its an optional custom color offered by Honda. It costs extra but its worth the look (neighbor has a new one from the local dealer).

@RRydnew Yes, I am in the USA and even requested this canary yellow--maybe it wasn't offered in 2008, but definitely worth getting if I ever have another chance!

@Wavewolfaroha I am here in Dallas, TX The dealer (Ewing Honda) offers it as a custom color. I called them and I was told that it is a dealer item and not all dealers do it. Hopefully, they will wherever you are. It looks funky but cool. I can see Dame Kiri with a load of Coho in the bbq rack, kayak on top hanging with Raewyn, Malvina and Flicka at the campsite going over "war stories" from the Met..... ;)

My kayak is canary yellow, and is most often en route on the rack on my Element--I thought having the car in this same color would be way cool! Is Kiri a kayaker?! The Maori, after all, are "people of the canoe" (te tangata o te waka)! Thanks for info on the color--I may need to trade my Element for a more modest vehicle with auto transmission (ugh--love the phallic shift on the manual transmission Element!) with hand controls, and would surely request the yellow!
