This usually means a barre, with the roman numeral indicating which fret.

So Ciii indicates a barre on the third fret - hold down all strings with the first finger.

CVIII would indicate the 8th fret.

Sometimes you might see 1/2CIII which would mean a partial bar - holding down only a few of the strings.

Figured bass is related to what notation used in today's rock and jazz music?

Figured bass was basically a chord chart (also indicating the inversion ) in the Baroque period and musicians improvised upon those charts much like jazz players do today using modern chord chart notation. It was during the later classical period that composers started writing music down in an exact manner and expected musicians to play exactly note by note. Also, figured bass is similar to the Nashville number system. I is the tonic and V is the dominant.....et cetera.

What classical music was used in Acura commercial on Speedvision tv?

Its a Bach Cello suite. I think its 5 allemande, but it could be a courante. 4/12/2011 - This music is not Bach. Bach never used chord progressions like these, nor did anyone in the Baroque era of classical music. It's 20th century or later, and I'd love to know the composer...
