General Motors - Robot
GM - Robot
The “sad robot” GM ad from the 2007 XLI Super Bowl. After dropping a screw on an assembly line, it gets fired by GM and forced to take on a number of demoralizing jobs until it eventually takes its own life by jumping off a bridge. Maybe not the best or funniest ad ever, but the sheer audacity of it worked, as I still remember it vividly.

Toyota - Muppets
TV-Spot: Toyota Highlander - Terry Crews & the Muppets - Official Big Game Ad 2014
The Electric Mayhem in a Toyota, hands down. After that, the gulf is wider than Miss Piggy after Thanksgiving dinner.

RAM - So God Made a Farmer
“Farmer” | Ram Trucks
Ram’s, “So God Made a Farmer” commercial from 2013 is the GOAT. While the ad itself is 2 minutes long, less than 20 seconds of it actually features a Ram. The rest is spent on Paul Harvey’s iconic poem under the same name. The whole commercial really makes you appreciate what our farmers and ranchers go through on a daily basis.

Volkswagen - Black Beetle
Volkswagen Commercial: Black Beetle
My all-time favorite is the Black Betty teaser for the VW Beetle relaunch from Super Bowl XLV. It managed to actually get me excited without even showing the car. I later bought a 2012 Beetle turbo launch edition.

Volkswagen - Tree
Volkswagen GTI commercial - VW Tree
I nearly died laughing at this VW commercial, so it would be my pick. Also, a side note in case anyone cares: while not Super Bowl commercials, the two greatest car commercials ever made IMHO are Ferrari-Shell, and Honda Impossible Dream (version1>version2). If you haven’t seen them, check them out. You’ll be glad you did.

The Prius police chase one a few years ago was pretty fun. Self aware but hits on why people would want to buy a Prius.
