[[MeaningfulName Italian for "panther"]], the De Tomaso Pantera is a midship sports car designed by Carrozzeria Ghia. As the maker's third model, it was co-developed with Ford as then-vice president Lee Iacocca aided in boosting the brand's image by making a sports car like the Ford [=GT40=].

With Ford's guidance, the Pantera aimed to be capable sports car with a reasonable price and sold in large quantities, as it was suitably utilized with Ford's V8 engine. Ford later began importing the Pantera in the United States in 1971 and it was sold through Lincoln-Mercury dealers. Following Ford's disengagement in 1975, around 5,500 units were sold in the country.

Across its 20 year life span, the Pantera was produced in over 7,000 units and up to today is considered to be a rare collector's car.

-->--''Film/BackToTheFuture1''

The [=DeLorean=] was a rear-engined sports car that was produced from 1981 to 1982.

Originally marketed by the founder John [=DeLorean=], the car itself was designed by Italdesign's Giorgetto Giugiaro, and was notable for its stainless steel body and gull-wing doors... however, it also became infamous for its lack of power that doesn't match its looks and price. This, combined with poor quality and mechanical issues, led to a lack of sales, prompting John [=DeLorean=] to file for bankruptcy.

Despite its short-lived production, the [=DeLorean=] rose to popularity and became widely known for being featured as a time machine in ''Franchise/BackToTheFuture'', to the point John [=DeLorean=] personally sent a letter to the film's producers, thanking them for immortalizing the car.

* As noted elsewhere on the folder, the car owes its stay in pop culture thanks to the ''Franchise/BackToTheFuture'' film trilogy and associated franchise.
* As a clear ShoutOut to the aforementioned ''Back to the Future'', Wade Watts (under his OASIS avatar Parzival) in ''Film/ReadyPlayerOne'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVzbsy9X0pc takes on the unbeatable race with his fabled [=DeLorean=] time machine]].

* Of course. ''Music/HueyLewisAndTheNews'', the artist behind the ''Franchise/BackToTheFuture'' song "The Power of Love" definitely featured the signature [=DeLorean=] time machine in its music video.
* ''[[Music/{{LMFAO}} LMFAO's]]'' Redfoo featured a pink [=DeLorean=] (alongside a Cadillac Fleetwood) in his music video, "New Thang".

* The ''VideoGame/{{Asphalt}}'' series features this starting with ''6: Adrenaline''. In ''7: Heat'', it is notorious for having the slowest acceleration in the game, and not even a NitroBoost can negate it. In ''Xtreme'', the [=DeLorean=] is fully-modified as a monster truck, fitted with comically large jet engines.
* The Jansen [=P12=] 88 Special in ''VideoGame/BurnoutParadise'' is a clear ShoutOut to the DMC [=DeLorean=] time machine from ''Franchise/BackToTheFuture''. And you can even choose to switch it to Hover Mode as well. Boost, and watch the car leave BurningRubber trails.
* Befitting TheEighties retro and synthwave vibes, ''VideoGame/TheCrew2'' added a neon-modified [=DeLorean=] as part of the Summer in Hollywood update.

* The [=DeLorean=] made its first appearance in ''VideoGame/GranTurismo 4'', but uses a powerful Series 2 variant. The car can be obtained for free after you beat "The Pass" Driving Missions. A fully-detailed version of the [=S2 DeLorean=] was added in ''7''.
* ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoViceCity'' and ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoOnline'' feature a parody of the [=DeLorean=] called the Deluxo. With its hover/flyer modes, the latter's is closer to Doc Brown's car.
* While the [=DeLorean=] was initially included in ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeed: No Limits'' in 2020, ''[[VideoGame/NeedForSpeedUnbound Unbound]]'' on the other hand added this blast from the past in a Vol. 3 update. Bonus points adding a time machine {{Expy}} body kit and for driving 88 mph for 3 seconds to get a BurningRubber effect.
* The ''VideoGame/RidgeRacer'' spin-off ''R: Racing Evolution'' has the [=DeLorean=] as an unlockable car by finishing one of the event challenges.
* ''VideoGame/RocketLeague'' features this ''Back to the Future'' time machine. For gameplay purposes, the car doesn't have the ability to hover, of course.

->''"I mostly drive around in a Fiat 500 [=TwinAir=], and that's a pretty small car!"''
-->--'''Creator/RichardHammond'''

If you visit UsefulNotes/{{Italy}}, watch any ItalianMedia, or perhaps be a cunning GentlemanThief [[Franchise/LupinIII who has never been caught]], then you are certainly gonna see this cute little machine.

After the end of UsefulNotes/WorldWarII where UsefulNotes/FascistItaly has met its demise, [[CrapsackWorld Italy was living in a post-war era with a destroyed and stagnating economy]]. That is until the beginning of TheFifties where the country was turned into an economic BoomTown. During this thriving decade, Fiat is working on a car that meets demands of the post-war market. It took the brand 8 years to develop it until in July 1957, Fiat has launched the 500, or the ''Cinquecento'' in Italian. It's a tiny car [[BoringButPractical that was very inexpensive and very practical to drive on a daily basis thanks to its steel wheels, simple body panels and uncomplicated gearboxes and engine components]]. The car measures 2.97 meters (9'9"), with wide-set rounded headlamps, and powered by a rear-mounted 479 cc 15-horsepower two-cylinder engine. With that, the Fiat 500 defined the first purpose-designed city cars.

Throughout its 18-year lifespan, Fiat produced numerous versions of the 500, ranging from a semi-convertible, a 3-door estate and panel van, and even a performance-oriented model tuned by Abarth as the Abarth 695 SS (or perhaps, the ''essesse''), with only 1,000 units produced. Another variant is the Bianchina by Autobianchi in 1960, a mini Berlina car based on the Fiat 500.

The Fiat 500 ended production in 1975 with nearly ''4 millions'' units produced. It made an impression to the community as one of the icons of automobiledom, similar to its rear-engined cousin, the Volkswagen Beetle.

As the TurnOfTheMillennium was underway, Fiat launced the Treipiùno concept during the Geneva Motor Show in 2004, which was a CallBack to the original 500. The concept design would transition into a fully-fledged production car in 2007, new as the "new 500". It's notable for its [[{{Retraux}} retro-styling]] from its original 1957 counterpart. Unlike the original, the new-generation Fiat 500 uses a front-engine, front wheel drive layout, which was a breakthrough during TheSixties. In addition to that, the 500 had a fixed-profile convertible called the 500C, introduced in 2009, also a high-performance model, this time called the Abarth 500, which uses a 133-horsepower turbocharged 1.4 L petrol engine. Later versions of Abarth's models includes the Abarth 595, with a larger engine, and a 695 Biposto, the most powerful 500 ever offered. Finally, a GreenAesop version called the [=500e=] was introduced in 2013, using a battery-electric engine.

The new 500 has been a very successful car and is considered to be the flagship model for Fiat and today, it has gained a reputation as an iconic cult classic.

The ContinuityReboot GreenAesop HummerDinger.

After Hummer's discontinuation in 2010, around 11 years later, General Motors announced the revival of the Hummer nameplate as a sub-brand under the GMC marque, but did not revive Hummer alone as a standalone brand.

The Hummer EV is GMC's line of all-electric pickup truck and sports utility vehicle unveiled in October 2020 and April 2021 respectively. A MightyGlacier amongst [=4x4=] sports utilities, weighing roughly 5 US tonnes (about 10,000 pounds/4,500 kg), this EV is considered to be one of the heaviest civilian cars ever sold in the United States, which may concern consumers with its mass that possess safety concerns to the public and the environment.

The EV was known to be endorsed by UsefulNotes/LeBronJames, as well as the car being test driven by United States president UsefulNotes/JoeBiden.

* The Hummer EV would be there for any movie with a main character played by Creator/RyanGosling:
** It's a ProductPlacement thing for ''Film/Barbie2023'' where [[EverybodyOwnsAFord lots and lots of vehicles in the movie are ones manufactured by General Motors]]. One of them would be the car of Ken, a fully [[PimpedOutCar pimped out]] silver Hummer EV as his sweet sick ride. Alongide Barbie's pink Corvette, the EV Hummer it's so hot, it even got a Toys/HotWheels edition as part of the promotional package.
** Speaking of that, Ryan Gosling is set to drive this Hummer EV again in the 2024 film adaptation, ''Film/TheFallGuy2024'', where this electric pickup serves as his stunt performing car.

* Diego Salgado's mansion in the "El Sin Nombre" campaign mission of ''VideoGame/CallOfDutyModernWarfareII'' has this ''fully licensed'' behemoth parked in the garage. Outside of campaign, the Season One update allows you to drive this silent sports tank in Ground War and Invasion multiplayer modes... plus [[PimpedOutCar wacky skins]] applicable via RewardsPass.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llbhme8PfvQ Even the game has a commercial promoting the GMC, dropping it like it's hot.]]
* When Creator/{{Ubisoft}} announced ''VideoGame/TheCrewMotorfest'', one of the pre-order cars announced would be this rapid-accelerating electric behemoth as one of the early access cars. And you get to try this in the Electric Odyssey Playlist where the Hummer EV is part of along with its GreenAesop icons.
-->'''Danny:''' That is pretty fast for something that heavy!
* Only for the UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch, has this in ''VideoGame/{{Cruisn}} Blast'', replacing the Hummer HX concept from the arcade.... and just for some odd reason, the car has ''[[ArtisticLicenseCars six gears and engine noises to an electric vehicle]]'', which actually ''defeats the sole purpose of being an EV in the first place!''
* ''VideoGame/ForzaHorizon 5'' adds this GreenAesop behemoth to the badlands of Mexico in a 2023 update... and you also get to drive the aforementioned ''Barbie'' movie edition car that Ken drove in the movie.

* ''Film/HouseParty2023''. Yes, it's that movie with UsefulNotes/LebronJames has this customized "Young Threats" Cadil­lac Es­calade EXT pick-up.

* [[ZigzaggedTrope Zigzagged]] with the Cadillac Escalade ESV in ''VideoGame/ForzaHorizon ''onwards, which is expectedly a lumbering giant in its stock configuration, but can become a full-on LightningBruiser with the right upgrades.

* Claude Gilbert in ''[[Film/TheLoveBug Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo]]'' drives a black and white striped Pantera with the #66 on the hood. [[spoiler:During the final race, Claude is seen with his wrecked Pantera, cheering for Herbie.]]

* ''VideoGame/{{Forza}}'': This midship machine only appeared in ''[=FM3=]'' and ''4''.

-->''"I mostly drive around in a Fiat 500 TwinAir, and that's a pretty small car!"''

* Is ''Film/JamesBond'' in a Fiat 500? Nah. Turns out in ''Film/{{Spectre}}'', during the CarChase through the narrow streets of Rome, Bond in his Aston Martin [=DB10=] pushes a poor civilian inside a Nuovo 500, causing the car to hit a nearby pole... then the airbag activates.

* The ProductPlacement is strong in Music/{{Echosmith}}'s music video ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UMfEfUR7wM Get Into My Car]]'' where the lead singer Sydney Sierota acts like an "Uber driver" driving her Fiat 500X and forcing everyone in her car. Plus she's drinking a [[UsefulNotes/McDonalds [=McCafe=]]].

* The Abarth 500 essesse is this cute-performing hatchback that serves as one of the [[StarterMon starter cars]] of ''VideoGame/{{Asphalt}}' 6: Adrenaline'', ''3D'' and ''7: Heat''.

''Points to a stock-looking Abarth 500.''\\

* Plenty of Fiat [=500s=] galore in ''VideoGame/GranTurismo'', typically as a [[JokeCharacter useless joke car]]. In ''Sport'' '68, Fiat 500 with only ''15'' horsepower and a ridiculously high center of gravity.

** In chapter 6 or ''R: Racing Evolution'', Stephan Garnier procures a special racing machine for Rena Hayami to use for the next race; a Garnier-spec Fiat 500, packing quite a punch with almost ''300 horses under the hood''. A Class 1 track car that can simply trump any Le Mans racer at anytime.
