Top 20 Movie Cars

[ocdart]

Don't kill the messenger!
Following is a list of the 'Top 20 Movie Cars' I saw on a list on MSN.com today.
3 Mopars on the list, but not (IMO) one of the most iconic.
Agree with it, or not, here's the list:

1. 1962 VW Beetle, "The Love Bug"
2. 1981 DeLorean DMC-12, "Back To The Future"
3. 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California, "Ferris Bueller's Day Off"
4. 1981 Porsche 928, "Risky Business"
5. 1983 Wagon Queen Family Truckster, "National Lampoon's Vacation"
6. 1977 Pontiac TransAm, "Smokey and the Bandit"
7. 1974 Dodge Monaco, "The Blues Brothers"
8. 1941 Lincoln Continental, "The Godfather"
9. 2008 Audi R8, "Ironman"
10. 1970 Porsche 917K, "LeMans"
11. 1958 Plymouth Fury, "Christine"
12. "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang"
13. 1949 Mercury Eight, "Rebel Without A Cause"
14. 1959 Cadillac Ecto-1, "Ghostbusters"
15. 1963 Aston Martin DB5, "Goldfinger"
16. 1968 Ford Mustang GT, "Bullitt"
17. 1932 Ford Coupe, "American Grafitti"
18. 1973 Ford XB Falcon GT351, "Mad Max"
19. 1980 Lamborghini Countach LP400S, "The Cannonball Run"
20. 1970 Dodge Charger, "The Fast and the Furious"

But where's Kowalski's 1970 Dodge Challenger from "Vanishing Point"?

And the Car?

Are you asking about the one Mopar I think is missing from the list?
As said in the last sentence: "Where's Kowalski's Challenger from 'Vanishing Point'?"

 

[Princess Valiant]

forgot one ......KACHOW

 

[1969VADart]

The fact that the Charger from "Bullit" is not on the list is ridiculous.

The fact that the Charger from "Bullit" is not on the list is ridiculous.

I'll agree. From a Mopar fan point of view.

But the Mustang in the chase scene made Mustang sales skyrocket, like it or not.

How about the "Duel" 1970 318 valiant?
Some scenes it was a 71 Slant 6....

I hate to say it, but what about the General?

 

[345man2]

who ever came up with that was diffenetly mot a car guy the general and bandit should have been 1 and 2 yeah I know it a trans am but killer car movie lol

 

[1968FormulaS340]

I usually don't think much of these lists but this one stands out as truly sucking.

Leaving brand loyalty out of it, I would say:

15. 1963 Aston Martin DB5, "Goldfinger"
16. 1968 Ford Mustang GT, "Bullitt"

Are WAY to low on the list.

9. 2008 Audi R8, "Ironman"

Shouldn't be on the list at all

meh- they had to use a metric speedometer to get the car up to 100



3. 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California, "Ferris Bueller's Day Off"
they didn't even use a real Ferrari...

 

[1968FormulaS340]

Im guessing the General Lee or the Starsky & Hutch car didn't make the list because they were TV cars.

Both very iconic rides.

And the Car?

I couldn't believe it wasn't in there either. Talk about an iconic cult classic and an awesome Barris creation. I wonder where it is now? I have the 1/25 scale my family gave me some years ago. That's one of my all time favorites. Even if it is a Ford product. LOL
