History YMMV / Motorcity

* MisBlamed: Red thinks Mike destroyed his house, when[[spoiler: it was his subsequent employer, Kane, who ordered it]].

* FanDisservice / FanService: The sunglasses commercial in "Off the Rack" at least proves that Kane has a high opinion on his looks... whether that's justified is up for debate.

* DesignatedHero: In Texas's image spot, he and Mike appear as ones. Mike runs off to play hide and seek [[hottip:*: instead of going missing like in the episode in question]] when the weather machine threatens everything in Motorcity. Texas assaults and beats up the Hockey gang for bothering him while eating [[hottip:*: in the actual episode they attacked the burners to get the bounty on their heads]], and getting the other gangs in on a race with the Duke, just to make it more challenging [[hottip:*: instead of The Duke doing that through loophole abuse]]. He also deliberately compromises his shrinking plan because he thought it was too good and needed to humor Mike's plan [[hottip:*: instead of his plan being to impractical, and Mike's plan being the one used]].

* {{HSQ}}: The series has always run with this, but "Vega" is piling on the action and tension like never before.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork

* AwesomeArt: The series gets consistent high praise for its eye-popping use of Flash animation, brilliantly lit backgrounds, and unique designs.

* FanCommunityNicknames: Fans of the show tend to be called Motorcitizens.

** Threat Level Texas has Texas explain some events of previous episodes with a definite Artistic License. Among those changes were, the core in Power Trip was his distilled Awesomeness, and when a real bomb was found, Texas Drank it to become Super zombie Texas, before dropping the bomb on Kane, making Kane a giant, and defeating mike with his ponytail, Super Zombie Texas becomes Ultra Zombie Texas and grows giant to fight Kane.

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: Just ''watch'' the animation for the show, it puts many a show to shame.

* ShipMates: The most common net of ships are [[HoYay Mike/Chuck]], [[ShipTease Julie/Texas]], and [[BirdsOfAFeather Dutch/Tenny]]. Another less common variation is [[HoYay Mike/Chuck]], [[SlapSlapKiss Dutch/Texas]], and [[LesYay Julie/Claire]]. There's also the even less common variant of Mike/Julie, Chuck/Claire and Dutch/Tenny.

** [[WordOfGod Foxy of the Amazons]] (the one female gang leader in "The Duke of Detroit") has gotten loads of fanart and shipping despite having a grand total of one line, most likely for [[AmazonianBeauty a few]] [[StatuesqueStunner reasons]].

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: The theme song was done by [[{{Metalocalypse}} Brandon Small]] himself. Yep, even Dethklok digs the Burners.
** The rest of the score is also fantastic if metal and techno is your thing.

* HoYay: Some see some between [[HeterosexualLifePartners Mike and Chuck]]. They are pretty close and have affectionate nicknames for each other: Mikey and Chuckles.

* PeripheryDemographic: While it's a hit with its target audience, it's also become incredibly popular with viewers in their late teens.
