They are all great films. I think Star and Beat the Devil are the best though.
EDIT: I would recommend watching them full screen with sound.

I remember seeing some of those as they were released, back in the day. If you're going to create video/film to promote your brand's vehicle, I'm all for it being done this way. I don't mind ads if they're essentially entertaining. 
As long as we're discussing car short films, here's one of my, albeit less scripted, favs:

I started with the first one... thought to myself.. "wow,, this is lame, chris wtf are you trying to make us watch"... Then I forced myself to watch the second... Again,, starting thinking to myself.. "wow.. Im wasting my life here, wtf am I doing".... But then I said F it,, lets watch another and see if it gets better.. I then found myself ingrossed in watching all of them and in the end of all things.. They werent to bad :P... My fav was diffently the "Star" one.. that one gave me a good laugh. And I love how it was Guy Ritchie that Directed it..
hahah so far i've only seen the Star one, but I loved it, watched it twice, enjoyed seeing "Mandonna" get tossed around hahahah, Clive is kew too
