Well this all I could come up with in a day per my bro's request. Hopefully you will enjoy this small list as a trip down memory lane. If you like American movies you are going to see a lot of autos in them. Whether they play a big part or are just in the back ground. The Automobile invokes things in us we can't always explain. Some of the cars on this list are NOT awesome but the persona given to them and what they gave to the film is what makes them stand out.
Let me know which ones you think I missed. I would love to add to this. Hear is an awesome website, www.IMCDB.org. This site has every car from everything on film.
Makes you want to run out and buy some DVD's don't it?

  2. Very nice indeed! Unfortunately the old Google Buzz feeds are lost so I can't bring up exactly how well each entry did. I do recall the final round was between the Batmobile from the Adam West TV show which was a 55 Lincoln Futura and that was edged out by the 67 Chevy Impala from SUPERNATURAL.

  3. That's cuz the Batmobile from Adam West days is beyond badass. It's more than quintessential to all things of Badassery. And that damn '67 Impala is just sexy... I'd hump her tail pipes!

  4. I will have to make a list of super vehicles made just for film. I tried to keep this one some what realistic vise Ehcto1 and the DB5. Real cars filled with movie magic! Much like your admired Batmobile.
