What car commercials have stuck in your memory?

The 1969 Dodge Charger commercials with Joan Parker mesmerized me the entire time they aired. If I hadn't already fallen for the GTX, they would have made me a Charger R/T owner, for sure.
 
I always thought these Matador commercials were funny. Unique marketing. Translation - “What the hell is that”

 
Any of the new Chevrolet 1977 ads. I think that everyone in my family ( all of my family including extended family were 100% GM) were on pins and needles waiting for the downsize GM cars. When those "The new Chevrolet" commercials aired my dad, uncle, neighbors, etc were commenting and eager to go see. I even remember teachers commenting on the billboards with new Chevrolet ads on field trips.

It was a important car for GM and all of America. As I recall they were really good cars, too. My dad bought the 1978 LeSabre, both neighbors bought Caprices, my uncle bought a Impala, and even my scoutmaster had a 1978 Catalina. All of those cars soldiered on north of 100k miles with minimal repairs. (Begs the question what happened to GM, but I digress)


 
There was a Dodge Dealer in Ambridge, Pa, had commercials with a sweet blonde, and while the announcer was talking, she was pulling off Gilner Dodge T Shirts, until she almost took off the last one.
