At the end of the commercial there's a link to a dedicated website for this campaign.
http://www.thepowerofdreams.com/
Click on "Discover Honda's Impossible Dreams" for a pop-up to the flash site. It has detailed history of every single product featured in that commercial with great video footages and flash animations. After the video introduction of each product you will be able to click on links (move your mouse cursor around the objects at the scene, as some links are hidden on the objects
) to more videos. Very impressive and well-made. 
Definitely go check it out!! I'm truly impressed.
BTW, the balloon at the end of the commercial is really a Honda balloon, though the introduction then brings you to the HondaJet with a link to another video footage of it.

Found a very thorough and well-written review of the ad:

So the voice-over at the end turns out to be Garrison Keillor's, which says, "I couldn't have put it better myself."

Great commercial. I wonder why Honda doesn't make a commercial like that for the USA since they manufacture Accords, Civics, Goldwings, TL's in Ohio and other plants in the country manufacture Honda power equipment, etc. They even have an engine plant in Anna, Ohio.
