I think this scene is Newman's best ever moment on the show. The way he says "A piece...of CRAP" is hilarious. Also when he's taking the old man's records, the way he says "Oh, cool it, pops"...he's stealing the guy's records and still insulting him, lol.

Or his final rant at Jerry in "The Finale, Part 1":

[Knock at the door. Jerry answers.]

Newman: Hello, Jerry.

Jerry: Hello, Newman. What gives?

Newman: I was speaking earlier with Kramer and he mentioned something about a private jet to Paris?

Jerry: Yeah, that's right.

Newman: Well, I hear it's quite beautiful there this time of year, and of course you know I'm one-quarter French.

Jerry: Really.

Newman: Oh, yes. In fact, I still have family there. This probably won't interest you, but I have a cousin there who's suffering very badly. She's lost all use of her muscles. She can only communicate by blinking. I would so love to see her - bring a ray of sunshine into her tragic life. But alas, I can't afford it, for I am, as you know, but a simple postal worker.

Jerry: That's a shame.

Newman (falls to his knees, clutches at Jerry): Take me! Take me!

Jerry: Oh, forget it! Pull yourself together! You're making me sick! Be a man!

Newman (rising): All right! But hear me and hear me well - The day will come. Oh, yes. Mark my words, Seinfeld - your day of reckoning is coming. When an evil wind will blow through your little playworld, and wipe that smug smile off your face. And I'll be there! In all my glory! Watching! Watching as it all comes crumbling down! <Maniacal laughter.>
