THE TOP 50 MOST MEMORABLE MOVIE CARS


RottenTomatoes.com has come up with a list of the Top 50 Most Memorable Movie Cars. Here's the Top 10 . . .


#1.) Doc Brown's DeLorean . . . from the "Back to the Future" movies. (--The first one came out in 1985.)

#2.) Herbie . . . the Volkswagen from 1968's "The Love Bug" and several other movies, right up through that 2005 LINDSAY LOHAN flick, "Herbie: Fully Loaded".

#3.) The General Lee . . . from "The Dukes of Hazzard". (2005) (--Technically, this is a CHEAT. The General Lee is a TV CAR. Not only did the movie version come more than 20 years later . . . it was TOTALLY LAME.)

#4.) The Mach 5 . . . from "Speed Racer". Another cheat, since "Speed Racer" was a cartoon long before it was a movie.


#5.) The Aston Martin DB5 . . . from various James Bond flicks, beginning with 1964's "Goldfinger".

#6.) The Ecto-1 . . . from "Ghostbusters" and "Ghostbusters 2". (1984, 1989)

#7.) Bandit's Trans Am . . . from "Smokey and the Bandit" and its two sequels. (--The original came out in 1977.)

#8.) Starsky's Gran Torino . . . from "Starsky & Hutch". (--Another cheat, since "Starsky & Hutch" was a TV show LONG before it became a movie. The series ran from 1974 to 1979. The movie came out in 2004.)

#9.) The Batmobile . . . from Tim Burton's "Batman" and "Batman Returns". (1989, 1992)

#10.) Mr. Frye's Ferrari . . . from "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". (1986)
