Favorite Movie/TV Car?

Maybe not my favorite but I really like the Red Skull's car from the new Captain America movie...

Now, I'm only 34, so my picks are going to be the 80s stuff like KITT and the A-Team Van, but I have to give huge props to those who posted:
- The Hardcastle & McCormick Coyote
- The EL-clad, spoilerless Countach from Automan
- The Starsky & Hutch Torino (there was an identical one of these in my mom's neighborhood the entire time I lived there)
- The Space 1999 Moon Buggy (I had a big plastic like 1:6 or so of that!)

Right now I am partial, because I drive an army-green Jeep that currently looks like:

On the way to being as much as possible like:

I figure it might count as a "build" since I need to change my doors to half-doors and will probably build at least one of the guns (maybe his shoulder cannon to mount to the roll cage) =0)
 
The red '89 Mini 1100 from Bourne Identity and the 'futurised' DeLorean from BTTF2.

Does anyone remembers the 1971 Cadillac "Super Fly" El Dorado from the 1972 film Super Fly?
Yes! I read that the guy who owned it loaned it to the director for the movie, in exchange for a cameo. I'm pretty sure he's the pimp in the bar.

My favorites are the Jag/Hearse combo from "Harold and Maude" which was already pictured here, and this(can't believe it hasn't been mentioned):

Honorable mention for the ***** Wagon from "Kill Bill."
 
I've got a couple. First, the HALO Warthog. I plan on building one eventually, and doing it properly (WETA style, as opposed to some of the later builds with wood and the like).

Second, the new Corvette Stingray concept from Revenge of the Fallen

It's definitely a design that needs a bit of time to grow on you, but these days, I'd love to own one and may actually try to build a replica at some point.

And from Transformers: Animated, Blurr.

Yeah, it's a picture of the toy, but that's what got me so interested in the design. I'm DEFINITELY going to build this one at some point. I've actually gotten a full mechanical design drawn up and checked by both an auto engineer and an auto designer, who were very interested in the design.
