3 come to mind:
1. the one where the guy's on the phone with his g/f, says "hurry, they have the silver one!", then he sees the salesman walking out the door with 2 people towards the car. he licks his hand and puts it over the door handle (thus of course ruining it for anyone else). funnier than it sounds.
2. the one where the guy's reading the owner's manual in his new jetta, says "cool!", jumps out of the car. "honey, come here, you gotta see this!". she walks outside, he excitedly presses a button on the key chain, all windows roll down at once. the wife, looking thoroughly unimpressed, turns around and walks inside. i can totally see myself doing this.
3. older one where they're in a gym; this woman is sitting at the calf machine, pressing her left foot down over and over. 20 seconds of that. guy walks by, "clutch foot?", and she nods. screen blanks to "the new volkswagens are coming".
4. also like that old volvo commercial, back when bmw was doing their "ultimate driving machine" campaign. shows the front of a bmw and volvo at the track. voiceover says something like "imagine how embarassed bmw must have been to get beaten by a volvo..." (the volvo starts pulling away, and you see it's a wagon) "...wagon". screen blanks to "the ultimate what?"
5. another old golf commercial, touting that the new golf was more aerodynamic than a porsche 944. "to you, the new golf may not look more aerodynamic than a porsche..." you see the car coming towards you, then when it's about the hit you, you do a somersault over the windshield..."but then, you're not a bug"
5a. lastly, the awesome porsche print response ad: "porsche 944...kills bugs fast"

whew! longer than i meant it to be. btw, that honda was supposedly real; only thing was they weighted a couple of parts to make them roll right, iirc.
