The Movie Car Contest: Who will win?

This is a contest I thought up of related to all the best cars that have appeared in cinema. You will vote to see which is the best? Here are the nominees:


Lightning McQueen (from Cars and Cars 2).


Christine the Killer Car


Herbie from (Herbie: Fully Loaded)


The BatMobile


And finally, Bumblebee from the Transformers trilogy.



Now make your vote on best movie car.

I like the Clampett's truck from the Beverly Hillbillies. I guess that's a TV show though.

Never heard of that. But it has to be one of the nominees listed above.

Cars from the cinema was specified. I voted for Bumblebee.

I also liked the Smokey and the Bandit Trans Am and a host of others.

Maybe it should have been open to the best vehicle of all cinema? The '32 yellow deuce coupe of "American Graffiti" would be a good one or the 1968 Mustang, "Eleanor" of "Gone in Sixty Seconds". Another good one would be the 1970 Dodge Charger from "The Fast and the Furious".

Then there's the `76 Gran Torino from Starsky & Hutch.

Based upon the choice given, I voted for christine.

Considered herbie, but I have only seen the original movies.

If we're throwing out other options, how about the Ford Falcon from the Mad Max/Road Warrior movies?

Mad Max Interceptor
