Classic. Mostly because I loved Hum back in the day. Went to a couple of their shows. Fantastic band that never got polished enough to go mainstream and moved on to other things.
Then suddenly they show up in a Cadillac commercial twenty years later. At that point, I knew my generation had at least conquered General Motors from the inside.
Cool fact: Hum never sold enough albums to pay Sony back for their advance, but Sony shared the royalty revenue for that commercial with the band anyway.
There is only one option: With the Camry Sport Edition, you'll feel grounded to the ground.
My favorite goes back, I think, to the 1950s. It is particularly appropriate this week.
Did you ever wonder how the man who drives the snowplow gets to the snowplow? This man drives a Volkswagen [original beetle].

In the mid 90's when the LT1 was put in the Cadillac Fleetwood there was an ad showing one effortlessly passing a Lincoln while towing a wooden Chris-Craft boat.
Toyota NZ of course;
The old Volvo ads with the stacked up Volvos!
Love the creativity of this classic one for the E39 M5:
one of my favorites.
I grew up and get nostalgic for the 2000s Mazda zoom-zoom ads, but this right here reminds me about being passionate for driving
It's not a traditional commercial, but the last Ken Block Gymkhana video is a pretty great Subaru advertisement.
