| 2 | * In the movie the car is shown to be evil from creation; in the book it is alluded that the previous owner's ghost drives the power of the car. Being based on Stephen King logic, it is safe to assume the car WAS created already infused with the dark spirit that seeks love and rage...lots and LOTS of rage apparently. This kind of explains why it kills the first person to ever sit in her after being offended by his cigar. |
| 3 | * In the book, they take down Christine with a tanker named Petunia. In the movie, they take her out with a crawler loader. In the US, most heavy construction equipment is manufactured by Caterpillar, and abbreviated as "Cat" (& it just so happens that the crawler loader in the film is indeed made by Caterpillar, a Caterpillar 977K to be exact). |
| 4 | ** I don't get it. |
| 5 | *** Cat often being a nickname for women named Catherine. |

| 7 | * In another famous Stephen King novel, ''Literature/{{It}}'', the eponymous clown summons a Plymouth the exact same make and model as Christine, who is driven by the corpse of a kid who'd been killed twenty-eight years previously. Let it sink in as to what that entails... |
| 8 | ** A car very similar to Christine also shows up in ''Literature/ElevenTwentyTwoSixtyThree'', driven by Sadie's psycho ex. |
| 9 | ** Furthermore, in ''The Shining'', it's explained by Hallorann that in the same way humans can Shine, so can buildings like the Overlook Hotel. By that logic, it's very likely that Christine is a ''car'' that can Shine. A mobile engine of death and rage that can ''steal souls'' is not a promising prospect. |
