Top 10 Movie Cars

Top 10 movie cars

After watching Børning, which is all about fast cars I thought it would be a good moment to take a look at some of my favorite and iconic cars in movie history. Will it include your favorites?

10. Christine

The only car in this list with a personality. Based on a story written by Stephen King this evil car changes her owner from nerdy to a jealous and threatening person. She also makes sure that every threat to him is eliminated.

As a kid I had a boxset of various James Bond cars, but this one was my favorite. It was the Lotus Esprit S1. The car could transform into a submarine and looked amazing.

8. The Minis from The Italian job

The minis in the original The Italian Job (let’s forget about the remake) were as much the stars as Michael Caine.

7. Herbie

If Christine is the evil car, than Herbie is the most friendly car in the world (maybe a Herbie vs. Christine movie should be made?). The beetle appeared in six films.

When you see this car you are immediately reminded of the movie. The van is used by Harry Dunne for his dog grooming company and is used for the road trip with Lloyd.

Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters! The iconic car, with its striking siren, is one from thousands.

4. Bullitts Mustang

The movie Bullit is a film which is well-known for its chase through San Francisco. The star from those scenes is this beautiful Mustang.

3. Batmobile

Through the years the Batmobile had various versions which all looked differently, but my personal one is the Tumblr from the Christopher Nolan films.

2. James Bond DB5

[/mlprx][mlprx effect=”fadeInRight” delay=”450″]DB5[/mlprx]
If you say DB5, you automatically say James Bond. The car which was introduced in Goldfinger was an instant classic and would appear any a coupole of other films. Even in the recent Bond-film Skyfall it showed up again (as a look back into the past)

[mlprx effect=”fadeInRight” delay=”400″]

1. DeLorean fromBack to the Future

The ultimate moviecar of course is the one that can fly and even more important can timetravel. If you ask people which item they would like to have from any film chances are is that they will pick this one.

What are your favorite movie cars?

  1. Excellent choices. Made ny own version years ago. Have to find it and do an update. I know I had a number of these same choices. How could you not? However, I do remember that I included the evil Lincoln from The Car.

  2. Awesome post!! Growing up w/ two brothers, I definitely paid attention to movie cars. LOVE the Lotus Esprit S1, though the newer Aston Martin driven by Daniel Craig is a beauty!! Oh and you can’t beat the Batmobile!!

  3. All amazing choices. I personally would have had Ecto 1 higher as that is such an iconic car from my childhood. Delorean was always going to be the outright winner though.

    • Yeah, only one car was possible. I recently saw The Last Starfighter for the first time and had I seen that before writing this list I would probably have included it as not too many cars are spaceship at the same time 😉
