Maybe slightly problematic. I don't have as much problem with the sentiment as I do that it's still a car commercial and cars aren't a great part of today.

btw i first saw a different version of this ad on TV that
1) only had about 4 seconds of guys on dusty front porch singin the blues
2) there had no continuous contrast between blues song and people "responding" to it; just 4 seconds of blues and then upbeat arcade firesque ukelele bullshit music with people looking unnaturally happy about life/honda
not sure which is worse
