bbowser Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 i get a daily "This day in History" from the History channel. This day in 2007 Cars.com listed their top 10 TV cars82 Trans Am "KITT" from Knight RiderGeneral LeeMystery Machine from Scooby Doo (I guess cartoons can count?)Ferrari 308 from Magnum P.I.the original Batmobile75 Gran Torino from Starsky & Hutch73 El Camino from My Name is Earl83 GMC Van from the A-TeamMach 5 from Speed Racer (another cartoon!)05 Maserati Quattroporte from Entourage (I had to look this one up, never seen the show)Not sure why they saw fit to include cartoon drawings. I think there are kits available for almost all of these, possibly excepting the El Camino and the Maserati. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phirewriter Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 If cartoons count how about Speed Buggy and the Wacky Racers? ? Where are the Munsters Coach and Dragula? Yet there's a POS El Camino and a blah Maserati on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
