Sobolewski: The first cool car was from a radio show of the 1930s. The hero's name was Green Hornet; his car was a fast black limousine called the Black Beauty. One of its gimmicks was that it could be made to run absolutely silently; this came from the Pierce-Arrow, which once had America's most powerful engine, yet was quiet. Rum-runners liked to drive this car for these reasons. In the 1960s the hero appeared on television and the car was a customized Chrysler Imperial; then a cool garage was made for it as well.

Kendra Kirai: While thematically, Wheeljack being a rally-racing Lancia Stratos Turbo doesn't really fit, but it's still looks remarkably futuristic and techno-y..which does rather fit him.

Ununnilium: Edit it in, Sobolewski! That's what a Wiki is for! >>


Citizen: Certainly, if you see a lion, you get in the car, but what if the lion is the car? =P
Darmok: I was going to add the Mustang from the Gone in 60 Seconds remake. The problem is, while the movie isn't mentioned yet, the car is there some 4 times already. Does this count as repetition, or should there be groupings for whenever a certain car appears in a movie? (Of course, it doesn't hurt that it's driven by Nicolas Cage!)
LoSboccacc: I remember one episode where the General Lee had to be reinforced to perform a particular stunt, anyone remembers the episode?
