* ''WesternAnimation/TheIronGiant'' has the rare case of the horn going off due to direct contact with the vehicle. Basically, the Iron Giant, when he and Hogarth discover the junkyard that Dean works at, starts eating everything in there. He then bites a car... which hadn't had its horn removed yet, causing it to go off.

Enzo's car doesn't have its alarm go off, nor do the throwables or the ones on Route 666. Wrong trope.


* In the prologue of ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}'', Bayonetta lands on her informant Enzo's car with enough force behind the landing to do massive amount of damage to it. In the cutscene following when they're driving down the highway, Enzo fiddled with it and not only do the side mirror pop off, the ''steering wheel comes loose'' and he has to shove it back in while he panics. Bayonetta can also pick up parked cars with her wicked weave and [[CarFu throw them at enemies]], to say nothing of [[UnexpectedGameplayChange Route 666]] and all the vehicular chaos you can cause during it.
