These are hilarious. A statement against riced-up “ah beng” pimped rides, and promoting the new Volkswagen Golf GTI in the USA at the same time. Thanks to cbljkkj for the pointer.
I’m trying out hosting the Flash videos myself instead of using Google Video or Youtube this time, so hopefully you can play these videos without any lag. Please leave some feedback on the streaming speed if possible. Videos are after the jump. There are 3 videos. Enjoy!

Video speed much better but the resolution is a little poor. Could be a smaller file but faster speed trade-off?
The videos are hilarious. Wonder if they used real cars or just outer shells? Looks like big budget ads.
The guy also looks like Peter Stormare who has done many movies (mainly as Russian). Last I can remember, he played that Russian cosmonaut in Armageddon, starring Bruce Willis. Latest movie was in Brothers Grimm.
Can't make out the woman though. Looks a bit like Kelly Lynch of Charlie's Angels (villian)
Fast video loads! Thanx paul.
Cool and funny ads
These videos which u have uploaded are definitely much smoother flowing from those youtube ones
These video definitely much faster than any others… but resolution have been sacrified though.
yup, it's hilarious, just like a soup opera. But, not to my taste i shall say, quite childish seem like. Honda – always the best…
I live for this stuff!
no seeking? smooth thought the streaming
very fast loading, luvin it!
the streaming is good…no longer need to wait…
the ad was totally stupid, why dun try to do the same things to the VW Golf…see how good is the German Eng'rg….
Why would they want to destroy the car that they are advertising?? At least it makes a point, would rather have a Golf GTI than one of those rice mobiles anyday.
Glad the streaming is better….. the video kinda funny… we want mo plz!!
Oh ya……excellent speed.
