Favorite Car in a Movie
I've been lurking for a while, and finally decided to join this group.
I am shopping for a new car, so I've really been noticing vehicles that are featured in movies and on tv. I have two teenage boys who are excited about X3, the new X-Men movie. I know the new Mercedes GL is going to be in the movie. One of my son's is a big Mercedes fan and is really excited about the GL being in the movie. So, what's your favorite car featured in a movie? And why? I like the DeLorean in the Back to the Future series myself.

Any old MB's in James Bond.
 Especialy in the car chase scene in the under ground garage, Bond in a sweet 740IL and the bad guys in a couple of W126's. The Transporter was awsome, such a nice 735IL, and lots of cool S500's. Those old BMW's in black are one of the best looking cars ever made.

Not in any particular order:
-Steed's Bentley in The Avengers. Real character and class, even well-worn. -Emma Peel's mid-1960's Lotus Europa(?) in The Avengers. Especially with the mid-1960's Diana Rigg in it. -The 450sl in Americal Gigolo (not too surprising there). Where were the headrests? Must have interfered with the camera work. The car actually looked good with (thin) whitewalls. -The XK150 (?) in Payton Place -The Bluesmobile - also, real character. I'm embarassed about this one: -The XK120 in Porky's: I'm sure that this was an early-mid 80's reproduction built on a Mustang II chassis, which I had considered building.

The Bluesmobile
The Charger in Fast and the Furious, bummer that the only cool car in the whole movie got wrecked  The Mad Max car. I'm not even sure what it was, some say Aussie Ford Falcon, others say it was a Holden. I don't care, I still liked it. Souped up Challenger in Vanishing Point. Again, why is it that every movie director who puts a cool car in their movie wants it wrecked?
