Favorite Movie/TV Car?

Yep. Just look underneath the car and you can see the same unique suspension bits.

More trivia. Milners engine is used as the close-up in the California Kid when they opened the hood. They put black cardboard around it because the Kid was black. The kids real engine had a modern carb etc.

Pretty much any car I like is listed here. Lotus Super 7 from the Prisoner; Spinner from Bladerunner; The Black Beauty; Batmobile ....
Did I miss these 2 ......

The magnificent Aston Martin DB5 from Goldfinger:

The glorious Piranha from The Man from U.N.C.L.E. :

And Bullitt's Mustang is a beauty as well. Some nice shots in this thread. Thanks for posting them.
 
My number one, all-time favorite, if-I-won-lotto-this-is-what-I'd-buy car:
The Mach 5.

The one pictured on top is from the movie, the one on the bottom is, I believe, a modded Corvette made to resemble the one from the cartoon.
Ideally, I'd like a replica of the cartoon version, but more accurate than the one pictured here. But any of them would be awesome to own!

This second mach 5 looks just like the ones my buddy's brother makes. They get booked into various trade shows and events. He is based in So Cal, so I wouldn't be surprised if this is one of his. He also makes the '66 Batmobile and Bat Boat as well as the '89 Batmobile, Herbie the Love Bug and a few others: http://www.gothamgarage.net/replicastarcars.swf

I think that's the one at Megacon earlier this year. I could be wrong. Does he have a website called "The Real Mach 5"?
 
In high school my dad actually bought me a '66 fastback that a pharmacist had rebuilt to look like the bullit mustang. I can honestly quote batman when I say, "Chicks dig the car".
Set the way-back machine for 1977. The day after I drove home with my first car, my next-door-neighbor comes over and tells me, "I wish I'd known you were looking for a car, I would have sold you mine." Her car was a 1967 Mustang Fastback, 289 V8 (don't recall the horsepower rating), bone stock, low mileage, and it was immaculate--it looked like it had just rolled off of the showroom floor. Her asking price? "$2,000, but I would have sold it to you for less than that." And it was lime gold (a medium metallic green). :cry The only downside was that the interior was also green, but at that price, in that condition, I would have found a way to live with it.
 
I dont think this has been mentioned yet but I quite liked the groundcar from the TV show 'Logans Run', I think it also appeared in a 'CHiPs' episode too!
 
This is a fantastic thread!

I'm in for Eleanor from Gone in 60 Seconds (remake)

The Tumbler from Batman Begins

K.I.T.T. from Knight Rider (the original)

And Tony Stark's Audi R8 Spyder!

Man that hurts to hear. Even with the green interior I that would have been sweet!
