West Herr Honda, our Honda dealership serving Buffalo, is participating in Honda’s Digital Scavenger Hunt that takes place on Facebook.

The competition is called “The Super Civic Quest” and it takes place on Facebook.  You can unlock clues and get a sneak peek at the 5 new Civics while earning Facebook credits and Amazon MP3 downloads and even a chance to win one of two new Hondas.

“We challenged RPA to reach and engage with our ultra-connected target through a fresh approach in social media as part of our Civic launch,” said Alicia Jones, social media strategist at American Honda Motor Co., Inc. “The Civic quest is a colossal endeavor taking digital engagement to another level.”

Along with competing using Facebook.com participants can watch along on Hondas Youtube channel.  Here is some information about the competition from Honda.com.:

Clues will also lead players to websites such as Amazon, FailBlog, Flickr, Foodily, Foursquare, I Can Has Cheezburger, MyFonts, NOTCOT, Pandora, Threadless, Twitter, Yelp and YouTube. A few clue examples:

Using the Shazam smartphone app, players will “shazam” each of Cesar’s videos on his Honda YouTube channel playlist to find the next clue. (Alternate non-smartphone dependent clues are also available.)
On someecards, players will look through custom, Civic character-themed cards to locate the next clue.
On a custom-built parody of a Russian Civic website, players will translate the copy to reveal the next clue.

“We knew that to break through this crowded space we needed to create a unique and engaging experience that resonated with our extremely digital-savvy target. There have been a lot of branded games, but none quite like this. We created seven Web films, content for 30 unique sites and apps, 30 badges and even our own augmented-reality app. We hope this blows people’s minds—while giving them a deeper understanding of the cars and campaign,” said Jason Sperling, SVP, GCD at RPA, Honda’s long-standing agency of record.

Make sure you take a look at the new 2012 Honda Civic series you don’t want to miss it.  The new Civic features great fuel-efficiency with models that get up to 39 mpgs on the highway.  The Civic starts under $16,000.:

Join in on the fun and participate in the scavenger hunt. Head to West Herr Honda or call (716) 239-4835 to find out more information on the Honda Civic.
