These Are Jalopnik's Favorite Weird Car Commercials

This ad only aired once during the 1984 MTV Awards, and that’s too bad because it’s so goddamn sick. This song will be in your head all day, I promise you.

I cannot believe this was banned. I don’t see any issue with it whatsoever. You may be a cuck, but at least you’ve got an E-Class.

This is so corny. I kinda love it, and I’m not even a “Star Trek” fan. Some nerds must have really enjoyed this, and that makes me happy for them.

I don’t know, man. This feels sort of disrespectful... and creepy. Definitely creepy.

These people own a house... why are they rubbing fronts in the back seat of their full-size sedan? I don’t understand at all. Also, who the fuck names their kid Concorde. Disgusting.

Volkswagen’s advertising remains undefeated.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say this was both the first and last Plymouth Acclaim Tina Turner ever sat in.

I like Eddie Murphy, but I did not care for the way he rubbed the Celica in this ad. It made me feel icky!

This right here is my favorite car commercial of all time. I’ve even written about it!

I love the French and their joie de vivre. They are just such a weird bunch of people. No other group of folks on earth would be able to come up with something like this, and that’s probably for the best. We don’t need an entire world of weirdos. One country is enough.

I wonder how this chicken is doing. If I had to guess, it’s doing as well as the Mercedes-Benz of that era.

The Catera is such an unmitigated piece of shit. Not even Cindy Crawford can save it.

Canadians are wild, man. The digital cockpit and CD player are so fucking choice, though.

I wonder if that ate the Skoda when they were done with it. I hope they did, because this commercial made me very hungry.

Take this however you will, but these SportKa commercials, shown on “Top Gear,” really informed my sense of humor. They just get me, man. I cannot explain it.

I fucking hate this commercial with all my heart. In fact, it’s made me dislike the Kia Soul just by association. It is a miserable, heinous display that I have had to endure for the past 13 years. Who thought this campaign was a good idea, and who are the idiots who liked it? Ugh, I’m angry now.
