Boxer23 Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Just while everyone is slacking off ready for the weekend, just wanted to post a little query to get your thoughts. Today's is "What's your favourite movie car?" Thought of this because Cret and I were talking about KITT from Knightrider last night and the Ford Falcon Interceptor from Mad Max. The best answer wins a prize.
GaryS Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Herbie . gotta love him (although the later "made for TV" movies were somewhat dissapointing, although the evil black beetle in the recent one was quite cool
Boxer23 Posted November 19, 2004 Author Posted November 19, 2004 The black Pontiac Firebird from "Smokey and the Bandits" is one of the finest pieces of American muscle car ever!!
GaryS Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 mustangs from "gone in 60 seconds" and "bullitt" are too obvious.
Boxer23 Posted November 19, 2004 Author Posted November 19, 2004 Mmm, the V8 Ford Mustangs. Ford brought out a special edition Mustang a couple of years ago to mark the anniversary of the film Bullitt: New Bullitt
dooahhdoo Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 where did the elf come from? Hiya Gary m8 Erm General Lee from Dukes of Hazzard was cool. The DeLorean from back to the future also. Let me think some more whilst eating my sarnies
Dave K Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Sorry someone had to. How about Modena Classic GT250 from Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Mmmmmmmm.
dooahhdoo Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Bodies ford capri from the professionals I also liked
Boxer23 Posted November 19, 2004 Author Posted November 19, 2004 The General Lee was a Dodge Charger R/T, similar sort of car to the black Charger in Fast and the Furious, possibly the sexiest piece of steel ever made.
GaryS Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 << where did the elf come from? Hiya Gary m8 >> was invited in by the big feller....how YOU doin??
dooahhdoo Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 << Sweeeeeeett... ooops , wrong thread >> PMSL Doing fine m8
heazille Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Mini Cooper " Italian Job" wiv Michael Caine
Cret Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Knackers to KITT, KARR is far superior - he's the evil prototype version of KITT, and he doesn't sound gay either! I like the Mitsubishi in the canonball run too. Favourite is the white Lotus Esprit Submarine from The Spy Who Loved me.
Boxer23 Posted November 19, 2004 Author Posted November 19, 2004 Yeah, I too loved the Mitsubishi driven by Jackie Chan in Cannonball Run. No racial stereotypes whatsoever. Jackie Chan also built by hand a Mitsubishi 3000GT (GTO) in one film where he played the part of a JTCC touring car champ.
mannin Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 Anyone ever seen the film wraith? the back car in that, IRL based on the crysler interceptor.
Jimmy Mc Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 Without a doubt the Carisma Renault 5 Turbo in Ali G Indahouse!!
Cret Posted November 20, 2004 Posted November 20, 2004 Tha old car stallone drives in Cobra is pretty damn mean too, and the one the cop guy has in Dark City (Top film!)
Boxer23 Posted November 20, 2004 Author Posted November 20, 2004 Which car is it in Cobra? The old James Bond Aston Marin DB5 is a cool, cult style classic. Definately a car to be driven wearing a smoker's jacket and with a glass of sherry in the hand. The white Dodge Challenger in Vanishing Point was a bit of beast but not as good as the Aston Marton DBS George Lazenby drives in On Her Majesty's Secret Service....he manages to make the tyres squeal while driving off a sandy beach!! Magnificant!! Lol
