New Honda commercial: Grooves in the road make music - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

Honda's releasing a commercial soon that shows a Civic goin over a stretch of highway. The highway has groves, that when the car goes over them at 55mph it plays the William Tell Overture (Lone Ranger). It hums that tune perfectly with only the Civic wheelbase, with a specific brand of tires at 55mph.

It's not out yet, but you can see youtube vids of ppl going over it. It's out of tune a bit since you need to right combo of car + tires and a constant speed. Apparently Lancaster residents didn't expect it to be so loud, so it might be paved over =(
