Hot on the heels of threads about 'The Best Car Movie?', or 'Best Movie Car Chase?' I figured there would be plenty of us that had a liking for particular cars in movies and TV shows.
It's easy to mention 'Eleanor', but what about the 'Munster mobile', or 'Dracstar' from 'The Munsters, or that batmobile from the Adam West TV series? Then there is the Chrysler concept car from 'The Wraith', or even the bad black Lincoln from 'The Car'.....and who could forget about the 1958 Plymouth from 'Christine', or Fox's Challenger and the '57 in 'Running On Empty'. Which ones stuck in your mind

Some of my favorites:
- Ford Torino from Starsky and Hutch - Dodge Challenger from Vanishing Point - Delorean DMC12 from Back to the Future - Dodge Charger and Ford Mustang from Bullit - Pontiac Trans Am from Knight Rider - Dodge Monaco from The Blues Brothers - Ford Falcons from Mad Max - The whacky alien 4WD from Metalstorm So many more I could add.

A couple of Bond's rides, as well as some of the rides in Two Hands (Heath Ledger and Bryan Brown) - in particular a tough XA/XB.
