What's your favorite movie car?

[rrneck]

I had to fix my POS truck by the side of the road today and it reminded me of this:



Nick Nolte's piece of shit sky blue Cadillac from 48hrs. My favorite movie car ever.

[Gold Metal Flake]

1. Family Truckster

Elegance AND class.

[JVS]

37. Hell yeah!

[CreekDog]

64. Seconded!

"You think you hate it now, but wait til you drive it."

:rofl:

[flvegan]

2. The most recent "Fast and the Furious" has a Grand National in it.

Haven't seen the movie, but it gets my vote.

[AlCzervik]

[Richard Steele]

90. I cannot disagree with a single word of that post..

GAWD, that movie had some great writing!

[BrotherBuzz]

93. The Rawhide scene was arguably John's best in the entire movie

He was Belushi personified; he owned the scene:

[Moondog]

82. Bridge climbing / jumping scene is cool.

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

[Mopar151]

6. John Milner's dragster

From "More American Grafitti"
Especially the cool custom pickup tow rig - but all the cars from "Greased Lightning"

And how could you beat Burt Munro's 1924 Indian - for real, "The world's fastest Indian". And check out the documentary that's on the DVD (Sacrifices to the God of Speed) - the "real" Burt is even cooler than the movie one!

12. The 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California Spider SWB

If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away?
Neither would I.

[BeachBaby]

44. Fine choice! +44-6.

[pokerfan]

56. If we could extend this to TV then I would add Miami Vice

though not the Testarossa but rather the 1972 Ferrari Daytona Spyder 365 GTS/4 as seen in the first couple seasons (even though it was a kit).

[pokerfan]

13. Changed my mind

The 1981 De Lorean DMC-12 with Flux capacitor, remote control, hover conversion and Mr. Fusion generator.

[AwakeAtLast]

65. That gets my vote!

:hi:

[AllenVanAllen]

14. The Batmobile

from the 66' Batman movie & tv show



although Batman's "Tumbler" is pretty bad-ass too.

[AllenVanAllen]

29. I have to mention

The Dude's Gran Torino





and it's death

[Oeditpus Rex]

30. Steve Bolander's '58 Chevy Impala from 'American Graffiti'

Absolutely beautiful lines that year. :)







Then John Milner's '32 Ford coupé from the same film — especially because it had a small-block Chevy engine. :D







Then the '55 Chevy 150 driven by James Taylor and wrenched by Dennis Wilson in "Two-Lane Blacktop." It had a 454 with aluminum heads, a tunnel ram intake and two four-barrel Holley carbs, a Muncie M-22 "Rock Crusher" 4-speed and a 4.88:1 Olds rear.







Then the '68 Dodge Charger driven by Peter Fonda with Adam Roarke as the mechanic in "Dirty Mary Crazy Larry." (Three different Chargers were used in filming. The other two were '69s; one was an R/T. I prefer the lines of the '68.)







BTW — you can find pics of and info on tons of movie and teevee cars at the Internet Movie Car Database.

[Lasher]

32. The Death Mobile

The 1964 Lincoln Continental from Animal House, resplendent here with its optional field modifications. Here it is shown after having shed its 'eat me' cocoon. Its only disappointment was that it had no licorice dispenser like the Mirth Mobile.

also some of the cars in "Death Race" (the remake), and the old James Bond Aston Martin that Sean Connery drove, that had machine guns and an ejection system.

Roy Scheider's truck in the movie "Sorcerer." Who could ever forget the look of that truck attempting to cross the crumbling bridge?

[Captain Hilts]
