Where does the “Good Evening, Neighbour” meme come from?

The scene comes from an Italian TV ad for the Fiat Punto, aired in the early 2000s and still known by its nickname 'Buonaseeera', which the brand itself has called one of its most popular commercials. A man driving his brand-new Punto overhears a neighbour threaten to date the first man she meets, so he parks immediately and knocks on her door with a beaming 'Buonasera!'. The ad's success led to a second version, reusing the same comic device of the opportunistic entrance.
