What is your NUMBER 1 favorite movie car

[Little Timmy]

It's a cosmeticly camoflagued Lola T 70 .

There were two cars in that scene,  but the first one is wrecked 5 seconds after the other escapee trys to drive it.

( I think he made it about 30 feet before slamming into a concrete pillar. )

Thanks for the clarification @Rob Hall & @Little Timmy In the darkness of the film, I did wonder if it was a Howmet TX gas turbine car.

That's a good movie........... very wholesome family movie.......

Also the '66 Chevy from Men With Brooms was pretty cool for a four-door

The Aston Martin that was used in Goldfinger.

I already said what mine is, and I'm not changing. 🤪

Aloha Bobby and Rose Camaro. I flipped over the molded fender flares and rear spoiler when I first saw it.

Almost forgot about it till I watched it Wednesday night, the '60 Plymouth Fury from In the Heat of the Night. Very awesome movie. I know the people driving the car are the bad guys but boy they got a nice car.

Mine is pretty stereotypical of us car guys, Milner's 32. I even built a replica out of one of the mpc switchers kits. Just something about this car is so cool. Oh and almost forgot, my second is Falfas 55.

My son and I always watch the 1980 movie "Used Cars" when he comes home, we pretty much love every car / truck driven in the high school driving class convoy.

Was it the car from the movie 'Wraith' ?

Looks like some prototype of concept car.   Has it been made as a kit sometime in the past?

Yep, the hero car from the movie The Wraith! It had a twin-turbo four cylinder that was mounted midship (sidewinder-style, if I remember right) that would alllllllllmost reach 200mph.....

Idk if these cars were already listed."Fast times at Ridgemont”high’s Camaro,the one Spicoli wrecked.😀.And the Firebird and pick up truck from “The Driver” The red Mercedes was also from the Driver.Ryan O,Neal destroyed it.,if you recall the movie.

What a shame they wrecked that Camaro but it was hilarious. Though I am a big fan of The Cruising Vessel, which I do belive has made it into this thread.

So-So movie but some great car chase bits. Still hated it when they painted it flat black after they were caught stealing in the drug store.

Many great looking cars from the movie's era. The '32 looked great for its part in the movie, the only thing was the chopped radiator shell looked a little off on a highboy style coupe.

The chopped radiator shell is one of my favorite parts of the car🤣.

The last scene of American Graffiti 2 was how we see how John Milner is killed by a drunken driver.john just won the drag racing Championship.He jumps in his 32,drives away.Hes checking out the trophy,listening to the radio.Then you see the headlights coming straight to Milner.There was a drunk driver who was driving on the wrong side of the road,and that’s how he dies.☹️

You spoiled the 2nd movie for me 🙁. I know it's at the end of the 1st though.

The Driver is one of my all time favourite films.

Never saw the whole movie, but I like the '59 Caddy in The Deer Hunter 1978.

This was the scene I remember when I kinda saw this movie as a younger kid; my parents were watching it I guess I just happened into the room when it was on. Also this put me onto '59 Cadillacs.

 The Driver is a really good movie.
