Acura has teamed up with Jerry Seinfeld to create a series of commercials that will be running in the third season of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.

The Japanese automaker is the exclusive sponsor to the web series and has collaborated with Seinfeld and director Barry Sonnenfeld to create the eight spots exclusively for the show. The commercials were written and stylized in a retro 1960’s style and are meant as spoofs on old-time advertising. The commercials focus on the new RLX and MDX from Acura and ranges from featuring space travel to mimicking cheesy 1960’s television.

Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee originally debuted in July, 2012, and earlier that year Seinfeld appeared in a commercial with Jay Leno featuring the NSX concept.

Though the ads won’t officially start debuting on the web series until the third season premieres on January 2, 2014, you can view them all here.
