Heroes need to be able to get to where the action is. And when they have to get from point "A" to point "B", no ordinary vehicle will do. The hero's ride has to be just as unique and awesome as the hero is. Enter a Cool Car! It looks cool, it goes fast, it might be modified to go even faster, its engine can be expected to make the Most Wonderful Sound, it may even be bulletproof and contain an assortment of weapons and gadgets. A really Cool Car can fly. Most Cool Cars, even ones that have no inherent super abilities, will be curiously immune to breakdown, physical damage or a realistic fuel range. No matter what manner it is in which the hero drives, as long as he's determined to stay on the straight and narrow and fight for the forces of good, his car shows an Empathic Weapon's ability to never get scratched, dented or even dirty. It may also be able to outperform similar or even superior vehicles simply by virtue of having the hero behind the wheel. Driving one also seems to ensure you'll have Rock Star Parking privileges. If you're really lucky, you'll have a Cool Garage to park it in. Sometimes, the car is cool enough that it actually can become a protagonist in the series — e.g. KITT in Knight Rider and the General Lee in The Dukes of Hazzard are arguably the main protagonists of their respective shows and are as iconic to the audience as the human stars. A Car Song is where a Cool Car is the star of a song instead. When a car literally becomes a character, see Sentient Vehicle. For a living creature that serves as both a vehicle and a character, see Sapient Steed. A Super-Trope to Pimped-Out Car, Weaponized Car, Hero's Classic Car (a classic car driven by The Hero). A Theme Mobile is a Cool Car that ties into the character's motif in some way (e.g. the Batmobile.) Contrast The Alleged Car, as well as Rice Burner — but compare What a Piece of Junk. See Improbably Cool Car for cars that are just too cool for the setting or the characters, and Metallicar Syndrome for eye-catching vehicles driven by people who would be better off picking something less conspicuous. As any car could be considered this in reality, No Real Life Examples, Please! For a look at appearances of real-life automobiles in fiction, see Cars of Fiction. noreallife |

How Friendship Accidentally Saved Magical Britain: Tom liberates the Weasleys' now-feral Ford Anglia from the Forbidden Forest and spends the summer of 1993 fixing it up and giving it a new, shiny coat of bright red paint. The car still has expansion charms on it from when it was with the Weasleys so it can comfortably seat several people plus luggage, and it's also fully sentient now and very happy to fly itself. | |

Equipping the body modifier parts into a regular city car will turn it into either a bespoke GT race car, a dragster, or even a Group C car.

The Batmobile in the campy 1960s Batman (1966) series was the coolest thing on the show. It was reworked by George Barris for the show from a concept car made by Lincoln for the 1957 auto show circuit. In its' original mint green with chrome trim,◊ it's even cooler. |

Misfile is chock full of cool cars, virtually every single character has one. The fact that almost every character is a street racer probably has something to do with it. However, it's also realistic in that many of these cars weren't inherently cool: they're the sort of cars High School kids could actually afford made cool through modification for their "Run what you brung" street races. | |

Nitronic Rush gives us the Interceptor, a car that can jump, fly for a short time, drive on walls and flip. It also has Nitro Boost. Then there's the Avenger, a van that tends to overheat faster in exchange for a more powerful boost, then there's the Commander, the expy of the DeLorean. Finally, there's the Goldenceptor that can never overheat. |

Video game (and eventually movie) example: Spy Hunter had the G-6155 Interceptor, that can transform into a boat. In the PS2 game, it could also turn into a bike. In all games, it had smokescreen, machineguns, oil slicks, and a rocket launcher. The series is essentially a Bond Car homage. |

Rally Vincent's 1967 Shelby /GT500KR/ from Gunsmith Cats. The licence plate number has a Blues Brothers Shout-Out: the car number is BRD 529. After the Shelby is unceremoniously blown up in the follow-up manga Burst, Rally gets a Mustang II that is heavily modified with a turbocharged engine and light armoring... and it bears mention that Rally still considered it The Alleged Car until she gave it a test drive. | |

Herbie the Volkswagen Beetle from The Love Bug and its sequels. Even though the Última Edición version, with its marginal 50-70 hp, is the most powerful version ever made (a stock 1963 model- Herbie's Canon age- had 40 hp), it still manages to be as powerful as a stock car. Notice, however, that thanks to the Beetle's extremely light weight (~750 kg / 1650 lb) it is possible to turn an ordinary Beetle into something as fast as a stock car without having to use a huge engine. Rally-racing Beetles have usually 100-120 hp engines, rarely 150 hp, and they are stripped down to about 650 kg. They outrun Vipers in the twisties. And out-accelerate them in straight lines. Reportedly, the version of Herbie used in the track racing scenes was stripped down and outfitted with a Porsche 911's flat-6. More than a few impressive-looking racing cars appear throughout the series. Plus, Herbie’s evil twin, Horace, looks strikingly malevolent. |

The Turbotraction Turbot-Rhino I and its successor were the cool cars owned by Spirou & Fantasio. André Franquin's backgrounds were populated by great representations of actual cars of the The '50s and The '60s. The Turbotraction, which was his design, blended in perfectly with the 'real' cars as it was based on rocket car concepts of that era. Part of its coolness was the realism with which it was portrayed (and it was really fast because of some sort of jet engine and had a magic roof, too). After the comic was taken over by other artists, Spirou and Fantasio's rides were 'real' and mundane cars, although very likely chosen for their unique design as well. | |

Iina from Kokoro Library drives what appears to be a Volkswagen Schwimmwagen amphibious car used in the second world war by the German army. Hers is white with cute cat print seat covers. The huge rear propeller isn't only for show though, since it functions perfectly fine as a boat. It could be an Amphicar, an actual 1960s-era German car inspired by the Volkswagen Schwimmwagen. Ampicars are cute, collectible, and handle like dogs both on the road and in the water. It could also be a civilian Schwimmwagen. VW supposedly sold some leftover Schwimmvagens on the civilian market after the war. |

Originally a Hellion chassis, it swaps out the flamethrower for a dual auto-cannon scavenged from a Goliath, has had its frame and engine modified to be whisper-quiet, and has a sensor suite that allows it to detect cloaked enemies.

There were only 7 of them made, one in each color offered on the Barracuda, of which 6 survive to this day.

Sense8: Capheus' van, the Van Damn. First time in history an automobile fly-kicked someone. More conventionally, the red Porsche 911 that Will drives in Iceland. In facts its coolness becomes something of a plot point, as Will is forced to destroy it so as to distract the workers at the facility where Riley is being held. The whole plan hinges on the idea that a bunch of hetero-normative men will be unable to stand such a beautiful car going up in a cloud of smoke, and their misery will allow Will to slip past them. On hearing the plan even Will is reluctant to damage such a nice car. |

You're Under Arrest! being Kosuke Fujishima's giant love letter to the motoring universe, is chock full of various cool cars and cool bikes: Oshou's E.R.A. Mini Turbo is a fastest original Mini around that was produced serially, and, officially rated at 185 kph, is basically on par with the legendary Mini Cooper of The '60s. Miyuki's extensively modified and tuned Toyota S800. The girls mini-patrol car may look like a stock Honda Today from the outside, but Miyuki has modified it no less than her own S800 — As per the build sheet◊, its 2-cylinder engine had its factory single-cam cylinder head replaced with a custom twin-cam head, and its block bored out from 547cc to 800cc. To help it breathe better, a higher-flow 2-barrel Weber carburetor, as well as a TD025 turbocharger and matching intercooler were installed. Top it off with a nitrous oxide injection system, and all these engine mods combine to boost the engine's power output from 31BHP to more than double that, at EIGHTY BHP. Helping to put all that power to the ground as well as help it turn and stop better are improved brakes, strengthened suspension, and better tires, making it arguably the fastest Today ever existing. Chie Sagamiouno's patrol Carrera, which was actually bought to her by her father. |

While the main character of The Dresden Files has a Blue Beetle that barely qualifies as a car (except maybe for other wizards), Thomas' Hummer is cool. Dresden's replacement car from Mab is badass: a vintage Cadillac hearse. Dark blue with an electric purple flame job. And Lara's loaner is the stuff of legends. Grevaine's ride ain't half bad—it's a classic Cadillac with a souped-up sound system used to power the living dead. |

The 1967 Chevy Impala, driven by the Winchesters on Supernatural, which, some have argued, has achieved co-protagonist status, along with Sam and Dean. Some fans believe it to be sentient, as seen in this webcomic, which is quite popular in the fandom. On Frank Devereaux's advice to be less conspicuous, the boys temporarily trade the Impala in for a GM Acadian. Dean treats it as The Alleged Car. In reality an Acadian, which was produced from 1962-71 for the Canadian market, would raise some eyebrows on its own. The cars of the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse also qualify. War drives a red 1965 Mustang, Famine a black Cadillac Escalade, Pestilence a green 1972 AMC Hornet with the license plate "SIKN TRD", and Death a white 1959 Cadillac with the license plate "BUH*BYE". |

James Bond Bond drove a series of Bentleys and a modified Aston Martin in the original Ian Fleming novels. In Thunderball, Bond drives "the most selfish car in England," which he calls "my locomotive;" a Mark II Continental Bentley that Bond buys from a salvage yard, has Rolls fit with a Mark IV engine "with 9.5 compression" and twin two-inch pipe exhausts, and has Mulliners (a now-defunct custom auto body manufacturer) put on a 2 seater rough grey convertible body with black morocco upholstery. Bond's CIA friend Felix Leiter drove an old Cord in one novel, and a Studillac (a real car, a 1953-era Studebaker coupe-turned-roadster with a powerful Cadillac engine) later on in Diamonds Are Forever. In John Gardner's novels, starting with Licence Renewed, Bond drove a tricked-out Saab 900 that was later nicknamed the "Silver Beast". |

Test Drive (especially the open world Test Drive Unlimited and Unlimited 2) and TDU2's spirital successors The Crew and The Crew 2 are this in essence. Any of this cars are cool in their own right from small hot hatches that are still very fast to Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Mercedes-Benz. | |

Kamen Rider Drive drops the franchise's traditional bike in favor a full-on car motif: as a result, his personal ride, the Tridoron, is far more feature-packed than any other Rider vehicle. Not only is it the source of his superpowers, but it can transform into three different types of car, assist with his Finishing Move, channel his various superpowers while he's driving it, combine with a pair of auxiliary machines to become a jet, or combine with him to form his Super Mode. Crossover movies make the Tridoron even cooler: if Kamen Rider Gaim is riding shotgun, it can turn into a Back to the Future-inspired spaceship, and if Shuriken Sentai Ninninger are around, it can combine with their Humongous Mecha. | |

Grand Theft Auto has had a number of cool cars of some significance in each series since at least the third game, but the resemblance to real cars was until GTAIV only a resemblance. GTAIV made the cool cars cooler by being much closer to real life cars. GTAV takes it up a whole new level and the cars are almost trademark infringement. Some models have been changed to look like different cars throught the series's lifespan — the "Infernus" in GTA III looks like a Jaguar XJ220, in Vice City it looks like a Lamborghini Countach, in San Andreas it looks like a Honda NSX, and in GTA IV and V it looks like a hybrid between a Lamborghini Murciélago and a Pagani Zonda. To add to the cool car trope nature of the franchise, each of the three main characters has a specific cool car all their own. While standard for the series, the Zaibatsu Z-Type gets special mention for being so cool that Rockstar decided to bring it back almost fifteen years later. |

Pick a Bond film, any Bond film. The Aston Martin DB5 from Goldfinger. Because of its instant and long-time iconic status, the car also appeared in Thunderball, GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, a deleted scene from The World Is Not Enough, Casino Royale (2006), Skyfall, Spectre and No Time to Die. (and in GoldenEye, it's featured in a race against an equally cool Ferrari) Bond goes to Japan in You Only Live Twice, thus it featured the Toyota 2000GT. As Sean Connery was too tall for the original fastback coupe, Toyota cobbled together a one-off open roadster in a short matter of weeks. Diamonds Are Forever sees Bond flummox the Las Vegas Police with a Mach I Mustang. The AMC Hornet from The Man with the Golden Gun is really pushing it, but is arguably saved by pulling off an incredible spiral-jump that could only have suceeded with Bond behind the wheel. The Lotus Esprit submarine from The Spy Who Loved Me, nicknamed "Wet Nellie" by fans. After the film came out, demand grew so much that customers were put on a three-year waiting list. Lotus Esprit Turbo from For Your Eyes Only sadly doesn't last long and Bond has to make do with a Citroën 2CV. BMW benefitted very much from the Product Placement in Pierce Brosnan's first three Bonds. Subverted in GoldenEye where James gets a car as cool as any of the others, but never uses it in battle (Tank Goodness they had a nice substitution for the vehicle chase scene). Tomorrow Never Dies gave Bond a rocket-firing, fully loaded BMW 750iL that he could drive by remote control. Yes, that's as awesome as it sounds. The World Is Not Enough puts Bond back in a two-seater, this time packing guided missile launchers...and we don't see much else, because it got sawn in half afterwards. Die Another Day marks the return of Bond's ass in the seat of an Aston... but gives his enemy a Jaguar XKR equal in gadgets to 007 himself. The resulting duel is considered one of the high points of the film. Whether the Vanquish's (or as Q calls it, the Vanish) ability to turn invisible is cool or ridiculous is somewhat debatable. Casino Royale (2006) and Quantum of Solace feature a new James Bond, and with him the then flagship of a new Aston Martin line, a DBS V12. Spectre goes one beyond, and sees Bond behind the wheel of an Aston Martin DB10, specifically designed for the film, in team with the producers and director, a series' first. Only 10 cars were ever made. In the car chase, it's pursued by another specially developed vehicle, a Jaguar based on a cancelled prototype. In Casino Royale (1967) David Niven drives a suitably old-school Bentley roadster. |

Speed Racer: The Mach 5 is so goddamn cool it's even listed as a Super Robot. Racer X's car, the Shooting Star, while not explicitly equipped with an arsenal of super gadgets, was shown jumping from one clifftop to another in flagrant violation of the Earth's gravity. The Car Acrobatic Team all sported miniature wings which turned them into gliders. The "evil twin" of the Mach 5 had full-blown airplane wings and a jet engine, in addition to a Death Ray. The Mammoth Car was the size of a passenger train, and made of solid gold. The GRX could go faster than human reflexes could handle, necessitating use of V-Gas which reacts badly with water and simultaneously dehydrates the user. The X3 Melange was driven by remote-control (with a robot dummy driver) by the revenge-fueled son of a dead racer. The "assassins", who were clearly ninjas, drove around in ninja cars. In one episode, Speed even test-drove a supersonic rocket car. |

In The Dark Knight Trilogy, Bruce Wayne owns several sports convertibles as part of his "billionaire playboy" cover he uses to hide from others the fact that he is Batman. In Batman Begins, when he is complimented by the valet while showing up at a Wayne Enterprises dinner, he merely tells the guy, "You should see my other one," referring to the Tumbler. In The Dark Knight, Bruce gets a Lamborghini Murciélago (which must mean a lot to Bruce because the car name is Spanish for "bat"). In The Dark Knight Rises, Bruce uses the Murciélago's successor, the Aventador. There is a funny scene early in the movie where Selina Kyle kisses Bruce, in the process palming his valet ticket, then steals his car by pretending to be his wife. The sly grin on her face when we see her behind the wheel of the Aventador sells it. | |

The AMC Hornet from The Man with the Golden Gun is really pushing it, but is arguably saved by pulling off an incredible spiral-jump that could only have suceeded with Bond behind the wheel. | |

In The Sarah Jane Adventures, Sarah drives a Nissan Figaro, a tiny, incredibly cute, soft-top built in the early 1990s but designed to look like they were built in the 1950s. Only around 20,000 were built and they are very rare in real-life Britain. | |

Sheryl Nome's Ferrari California in Macross Frontier Nyan Cli, a cool car by definition. Every detail inside and out was exactly drawn, from the 8000 RPM red line tachometer to the shiny Ferrari badges to the six-speed manual shift column. Yes, that's right, Sheryl Nome drives a stick. Intriguingly, of all the first-gen California roadsters produced, only two of them rolled off the production line with the 6-speed manual (and these two were never sold), while the rest of the examples received the 7-speed automated dual-clutch unit instead. Sheryl probably picked a manual because it's badass (or because she's Playing To The Fetishes again). Ozma Lee is seen driving a Lancia Delta Integrale. It may not look as impressive as a Ferrari, but as one of the most sucessful rally cars ever, it definitely qualifies as a cool car. |

The Bugatti Veyron SS - with nearly 1000bhp and a price tag in the millions, held the record for fastest lap until the Atom V8 knocked it off the top, Oliver, every Aston Martin to have ever appeared on the show - so cool they get their own mini-fridge that sits past the "Sub Zero" section, the Koenigsegg CCX - a car so Difficult, but Awesome that even The Stig found it hard to control...

Fallout 2 lets the Chosen One acquire a pre-War electric car (the Chryslus Highwayman) if they manage to find the fuel cell controller needed to power it. It can hold the entire party, which can potentially include a super mutant, a deathclaw, and a robobrain containing the personality of a pre-War AI. It gets even cooler with upgrades installed. The trunk can hold several suits of power armor, a half dozen miniguns, and an infinite amount of ammo. | |

The team's car in Black Lagoon is a 1965 Pontiac GTO, and is one of the most well-known, highly sought-after and collectible classic American muscle cars in the world. Not only is it cringe-inducing to see the kind of abuse it gets, but it's valuable enough to where they could sell it and have more than enough money to buy a brand-new car that's faster, more fuel-efficient and more comfortable, but, well, then they wouldn't be driving around a freakin' 1965 GTO. In the first and second seasons, Benny owns a 1969 Dodge Coronet R/T (fitted with a hood from a 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner). Another very valuable and sought-after piece of muscle-car history that is destroyed by Lagoon Company. |

In Skulduggery Pleasant the title character starts off driving a classic Bentley, but when it gets wrecked is forced to temporarily replace it with a hideous yellow hatchback. The third book reveals that Skulduggery has uncool cars stashed all over the place. This suggests that he is either very fond of his car (and doesn't want to drive it into situations he knows will be dangerous) or it gets damaged a lot. |

The Warthog from the Halo series. Sure it handles like a blind man on roller skates and will flip over if you so much as lean casually against it, but damn it looks awesome. They're so iconic they even serve a vital role in the climax of the first and third games. Even cooler, they made one in real life. Though thankfully it's less tip-prone than the in-game version. They made a "civilian" version for Forza Horizon 3. Hell. Yeah. |

LEGO has made a number of cool cars over the years, both licensed designs and unlicensed original designs. Their Creator line has a Ferrari F40, for example. Their mechanical-themed Technic line one-ups this, with fully functional mechanics, such as the flagship model - a Porsche 911 - which has a 6 speed paddle shift gearbox, a flat six engine, and working steering. Many of the larger Technic sets are designed to be easily retrofitted with a LEGO Power Functions motor and battery pack, turning them into remote controlled cars. | |

The Batmobile from Batman, in its various incarnations, has come to define this trope to the point where any character's cool car may be dubbed the (Character's Name)-mobile (real-world example: the famous "Popemobile"). Just to let you know, the Batmobile (nicknamed "The Tumbler") in Batman Begins is a Lamborghini Gallardo-Hummer H2 crossover. When Lt. Gordon gets a view of the Batmobile, he says: The Batmobile in Batman: The Dark Knight Returns was a Cool Tank. Various non-comic versions of the Batmobile are in the Film and Western Animation sections. Tim Drake's Robin had the Redbird. An armored sports car designed to shift some panels and blend in with civilian cars at the push of a button that was equipped with some of the same gadgets as the Batmobile. |

In the second game, if Jake steals the Briefcase Full of Money at the end of "Hard News", he arrives at the building in "Withdrawal" in a newly-bought monster truck. Regardless of if you take the briefcase or not, Jake will always appear later in "the Bar of Broken Heroes" with his default vehicle. Also in the second game, the Son can be seen driving a 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. |

Even though they lose it halfway through the movie, the Animated Adaptation has them with it again (where it's nicknamed Otto) and the sequel's poster features the car, implying they'll get it back.

Cruella de Vil's roadster in 101 Dalmatians. It steers like a brick (or Cruella is a terrible driver who bribed her way into getting a driver’s license) and the roof and hood fly off like it's paper near the end, but it still pulls off the oh-so-sinister Rich Bitch look. | |

The Flintstones' car from The Flintstones, which for some reason is actually powered by the driver's feet (along with all other cars in the series). His neighbor Barney Rubble has a cool one too; made entirely of one hollowed out log, it's a very early example of green technology. | |

The 1970 Charger in Demon Road. First impressions were that it was nice, though one can somewhat feel Amber's eyeroll (or just disinterest) as Milo turns to Car Porn while describing the machine. Always shiny in the morning, even though Milo is never seen to wash it, looks badass and Amber has to admit it is impressive when it is first started in the book, her pulse quickening as Milo revs the car. It repairs itself after a brutal Car Fu battle with a pickup, which ended when the targets tossed a Molotov cocktail on the bonnet and sprayed the car with automatic fire, and tortures anyone who tries to take it (to death, if you leave it long enough, presumably.) Also it is digesting an undead serial killer in the boot by this time. The car is Milo's daemonic symbiote and has been since he was the urban legend known as the Highway Ghost. | |

Every Batman film... The 1966 Batmobile is still cool. The Tim Burton Batman films introduced an armored version, but kept the jet exhaust from the TV series. In Batman Returns, we learn that it can also become a narrower, more streamlined version called the Batmissile in order to fit through more narrow spaces like alleyways. The first Joel Schumacher film had it more skeletal-looking with blue lighting. In The Dark Knight Trilogy, Bruce Wayne owns several sports convertibles as part of his "billionaire playboy" cover he uses to hide from others the fact that he is Batman. In Batman Begins, when he is complimented by the valet while showing up at a Wayne Enterprises dinner, he merely tells the guy, "You should see my other one," referring to the Tumbler. In The Dark Knight, Bruce gets a Lamborghini Murciélago (which must mean a lot to Bruce because the car name is Spanish for "bat"). In The Dark Knight Rises, Bruce uses the Murciélago's successor, the Aventador. There is a funny scene early in the movie where Selina Kyle kisses Bruce, in the process palming his valet ticket, then steals his car by pretending to be his wife. The sly grin on her face when we see her behind the wheel of the Aventador sells it. The Batmobile in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is a sleek monster, forgoing the usual black for a gray coloring and a little more heavier to deal with Batman's more darker mindset in the film. When it reappears in Justice League, it is outfitted with heavier firepower to deal with Steppenwolf and his Parademons. The Batmobile in The Batman is far less spectacular than previous iterations. It's effectively just a heavily armored muscle car with a rear-mounted jet engine - aside from the tires and the engine, the vehicle looks like it was built piecemeal from whatever Bruce could find, and even the center console looks like it was made from assorted aftermarket components. That said, underestimating the machine would be a very stupid thing to do. While the car may not look impressive, the way it sounds more than makes up for it. |

While Kamen Rider has been all about the Cool Bike, doesn't mean they'll have a few of this trope from time to time. Kamen Rider BLACK RX (and its notorious adaptation, Masked Rider) had a car for the titular protagonist, the Ridoron, in addition to the usual bike. Kamen Rider Double has a car-like vehicle (it doesn't actually have controls, instead being remote-operated by his cellphone), but it holds the parts for his Cool Bike and is indeed pretty cool. Kamen Rider Drive drops the franchise's traditional bike in favor a full-on car motif: as a result, his personal ride, the Tridoron, is far more feature-packed than any other Rider vehicle. Not only is it the source of his superpowers, but it can transform into three different types of car, assist with his Finishing Move, channel his various superpowers while he's driving it, combine with a pair of auxiliary machines to become a jet, or combine with him to form his Super Mode. Crossover movies make the Tridoron even cooler: if Kamen Rider Gaim is riding shotgun, it can turn into a Back to the Future-inspired spaceship, and if Shuriken Sentai Ninninger are around, it can combine with their Humongous Mecha. |

Super Mario Bros.: Many of the vehicles from the Mario Kart series games, especially from Double Dash!! onwards. Wario has a pretty sweet ride, which first showed up in Wario Land 4. It resembles a purple Cadillac Eldorado with a decal of Wario's mustache on the hood. As of Super Mario 3D World Bowser has one too, and his intro with it includes gestures that practically say "Check out the new wheels, chumps!" In a later level, it even has Tron Lines! |

Maggie of Trail of Lightning drives a 1972 Chevy pickup with custom paint and chrome detailing. She somehow maintains this vehicle in a post-apocalyptic world with no replacement parts.* John D. MacDonald's "salvage expert" Travis McGee drove Miss Agnes, the world's only custom-made hybrid of a Rolls Royce and a pickup truck. An unknown previous owner did the custom work. Trav named the car after one of his elementary-school teachers because the blue paint job reminded him of the color of her hair. The problem with it is that it's too memorable, so he never drives it on a job. | |

John Wick loves his American muscle cars, starting with the 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 he drives at the start of the film. He loves that car so much, in fact, that his wife's dying note to him has to specifically mention that "the car doesn't count" when explaining "something to love" as her parting gift. The theft of the car is one of the plot devices in the film's Inciting Incident. As a complementary replacement, the chop-shop owner provides Wick a loaner Chevelle SS 396. The staff of the Continental also gift him a modern V8 Charger, which he uses in the final chase scene. |

Then his father reveals he fixed up the old '70s Challenger he left behind when he joined the Marines. Needless to say, awesomeness ensues. Abby drives a bright red 1932 Ford Deuce Coupe with the Vanity License Plate "4NS CHIK." The car before this one was a hearse. |

"The Last of the V-8 Interceptors", or also known as the "Pursuit Special", the 1973 Ford XB Falcon, in the first, second and the fourth Mad Max films. One of the most understated cars on this page but one of the greatest for it. In Mad Max: Fury Road, while the majority of the action is based on a Big Badass Rig, Immortan Joe's Gigahorse - a pair of 1959 Cadillac Coupe de Villes merged into one overengineered, double-engined monstrosity - is so awesome you almost forget that its owner has no redeeming features. |

Kim Possible gets herself a cool car in season 4. It starts out as an ancient, rusty piece of junk, but her brothers customise it. It ends up with rocket boosters, aquatic capabilities and eventually a flight mode, as well as other useful spy gadgets. | |

In the Batman: The Animated Series episode "The Clock King", instead of the Batmobile, Batman travels through Gotham in Bruce Wayne's limousine. The version of the Batmobile featured in the show is a long, low rider that seems to stretch forever and wouldn't be out of place in REDLINE. | |

BattleTech has the Rotunda, a Star League-era scout car that had modular body kits to make it blend in with local cars. The appearance is only skin deep, as beneath those disguise kits is a shell of advanced Ferro-Fibrous armor, a fusion reactor, a large laser and a pair of short-ranged missile tubes. | |

1000 Ways to Die: The season 1 segment "Car Jacked" features a car thief attempting to steal a chef's prized GTO Judge, only for his slackline to get tangled, causing him to hang upside-down for the next 24 hours and die of blood pooling in his brain. The season 3 segment "Trucked Up" features a guy named Leonard who had recently bought a Boring, but Practical car, and his obnoxious cousin Todd whose parents bought him a Silverado with bells and whistles like chrome rims, LEDs, a DVD player, and an 8-ball gear shift. Naturally, it ends up being his undoing: against the manufacturer's warning, Todd also added a remote starter function and turns the car on while standing right in front of it, unaware that he accidentally put it in drive while showing off the aforementioned gear shift, causing the car to roll over Todd and crush his head to a bloody pulp. |

Mr. Magoo bought a 1910-era Baker Electric in one of his 1950s cartoons. His nephew Waldo considered it an alleged car, but Magoo was proud of it — and it held up fine after a detour into the ocean. Driving an ancient electric car when everyone else was in two-ton dreadnoughts — Magoo was so anachronistic that he was 50 years ahead of the curve. Very cool. | |

Ferris Bueller's Day Off: The 1961 Ferrari 250GT California. And then he destroys it at the end. The car is worth between 5 and 10 million dollars - depending on how much a person is willing to spend.note No actual Ferraris were harmed in the making of this film. In fact, no actual Ferraris were used in the film—the production had three mock-ups built, which explains why it had a backseat when the real deal did not. |

Jack Tenrec, the protagonist in Xenozoic Tales (later an animated series called Cadillacs and Dinosaurs) lived in a post-apocalyptic future and, in his main job as a mechanic, restored late 1940s & early 1950s Cadillacs and converted them to run on methane generated from dinosaur dung. Fortunately there were plenty of dinosaurs roaming around so running out of fuel was not a concern. In 2004, Franco Sbarro built a real life replica, but without the jet engine. |

Steve Urkel's BMW Isetta, from Family Matters, isn't cool. In fact, it's so terrible and antiquated that it may punch through the bottom, wrap around to the top and become cool. Or maybe not.

Jiraya's Black Saber, a modified black Nissan Fairlady Z with lots of weapons on it including launching red caltrops on the bumper. Jiban's Super Police Machine Reson, a patrol car-type machine with the third generation Pontiac Trans-Am as its base vehicle, modified with a sixth generation computer and hence a will of its own. Fire's WinSquad, a third generation Chevrolet Camaro RS that can also transform into FireSquad. SolBraver's SolGallop, a small armored super police car. Tokusou Exceedraft has two: The SRED-01 Scrumhead, a modified, armor-clad Chevrolet K5 Blazer, and the SRED-02 Various 7, SyncRedder's super patrol car that can also deploy all its equipment into Emergency Mode. Janperson's Dark Jaycar, A modified C3 Chevy Corvette with an ability to split into two: a rotor-less helicopter called Sky Jaycar and a tank-like automated cannon called Land Jaycar. |

The Brave Fighter of Legend Da-Garn: Da Garn, Mach and Turbo Lander all have cool cars of various kinds as alternate modes. Brave Police J-Decker with Deckerd, who is a police car.

In the BBC cop show Bergerac, Jersey detective Jim Bergerac's 'maverick' personality was expressed by driving a Burgundy 1947 Triumph Roadster. The producers thought it looked cool but, as many a critic and viewer noted, it was a car supremely unsuited to Jersey's narrow, winding roads and 40mph speed limits. It still set a trend in 80s/90s British crime shows for any "quirky" cop, PI, or amateur detective to drive some kind of collectible car. | |

Seriously, besides being designed as the eponymous dinosaur himself, the Reptar Wagon is a multifunctional ATV with flashlight headlight eyes, mechanical moving claws and can automatically double out as a flotation boat via "Aqua Reptar" mode. And, to top it off, it's voiced by Busta Rhymes in a Darth Vader-esque voice. Now Defictionalized! | |

The Lamborghini Diablo SV, which was first iconic car for the Need for Speed series after its appearance in 1998's III: Hot Pursuit. Being the fastest real life car in the game that was also available from the get-go when players first played it certainly helped. It received a good amount of attention in later Need for Speed games, appearing as DLC in 2010's Hot Pursuit, 2011's The Run, and 2012's Most Wanted, and later reappearing in the base games of the 2015 reboot, 2017's Payback, 2019's Heat and 2022's Unbound, satisfying classic fans' nostalgic needs.note Although the 2015 reboot and Payback dropped the iconic SV logo side vinyls, forcing fans to recreate them in the vinyl editors; Heat thankfully brought them back. | |

PlanetSide 1 has a variety of weaponized and armored cool buggies; the "Harasser" is a low-riding sandrail armed with a 12mm gun on the roof and a stealth system, the "Skyguard" is an Anti-Air buggy with a rumbling V8 engine, the Terran Republic's "Marauder" is a pickup truck with a 12mm turret on the roof and a 40mm grenade launcher on the bed, the New Conglomerate's "Enforcer" is a rugged technical with a rocket launcher on the back, and the Vanu Sovereignty's "Thresher" is a hover buggy armed with a spammy Plasma Cannon. PlanetSide 2 (currently) only has the Nanite Systems' "Harasser", which is an extremely fast and well armed buggy that can outrun anything else on the ground, perform sweet drifts, and a soldier can ride in the back and shoot his gun or repair the buggy on the fly. It can can mount a variety of weapons, such as rocket launchers, flak cannons, and empire-specific equipment like railguns or gatling guns | |

The Saint had a fictional car called a Hirondel, because Leslie Charteris didn't think any real car was cool enough for him to drive. In Vendetta for the Saint, even an Italian mechanic who owns a Bugatti Type 41 Royalenote A legendary real-life super-luxury car of which only seven were made is awed when Simon Templar tells him he used to have a Hirondel. | |

The Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters and its related material. It may be a bit of a subversion, as the model of car used was shown to be old and junky (and generally used as a hearse, i.e., to transport dead bodies for burial), yet it is still considered a cool car due to its visually striking appearance. On the other hand, the Ghostbuggy is the preferred mode of transport for the other guys, Filmation's Ghostbusters—is an uncool, beat-up old jalopy. At least until it decides to transform into an airplane, speedboat, snowmobile... "Did I mention it also travels in time?" |

Jak and Daxter: Dune buggies in Jak 3: Wastelander. Especially Dune Hopper that can jump 10 meters or so into the air. And it is outfitted with grenade launcher. Ram Rod, which is Damas' personal vehicle and it's essentially a bulldozer that can break through massive walls, is also a notable example. Arguably all cars in Jak X: Combat Racing. Havoc V12 especially comes to mind. |

Most of the more technologically advanced worlds of Magic: The Gathering are home to at least a couple of these: Kaladesh gives us the likes of Fleetwheel Cruiser and Ovalchase Dragster. Cars on that world seem to be built primarily with racing in mind, with trains and airships being more popular for actual transportation. By comparison, automobiles are virtually ubiquitous on New Capenna, and they are quite cool indeed, being powered by Halo, floating, and being (possibly) forged from the carapaces of giant biomechanical insects. For some specific examples, see Unlicensed Hearse, Mysterious Limousine, and Deluxe Dragster. |

The Black Beauty from The Green Hornet. In the TV show, a customized 1966 Imperial Crown sedan with green headlamps. Generally stored upside down in Britt Reid's garage. The film has at least three of them, all of them armed well enough to destroy several city blocks, and to top it all off it can change color. Possibly the only car cooler than the Batmobile. |

Gene Hunt's Ford Cortina GXL from Life On Mars It was actually one of the first things to go into the script, which had the working title of "Ford Cortina". Later, in Ashes to Ashes (2008), Gene Hunt has a bright red Audi. "Fire up the Quattro!" The actual car is a 1983 Quattro (in 1981, the Quattro wasn't available in a native British format). Phillip Glenister admitted in an interview that the producers knew it, but...well, it was a Cool Car. Sam Tyler's Chevelle SS in the American version. |

In Wangan Midnight, Akio Asakura drives a heavily-tuned vintage Nissan Fairlady Z (specifically, a model that was sold as the Datsun Z on this side of the Pacific Rim), known widely as the "Devil Z" for a very good reason. Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 2 and its sequels let you drive a Toyota HiAce. Which is a van. That, like any other car, can be tuned to upwards of 800 horsepower. The real car is a true two-seater,note It’s roofless rather than a convertible because there wasn’t even room to store the roof. the anime car has conveniently grown spacious back seats. She either has two, one left-hand drive and one right-hand drive, or an animator flipped over the cel. |

Some defense teams in the Ultra Series drive these. In Ultraman Tiga and its Sequel Series Ultraman Dyna, GUTS has a fairly standard-looking patrol car, but it comes equipped with a laser cannon on its roof that they can use to blast at kaiju. Ultraman Max: The car used by DASH can not only fire lasers from its hood, but fly. Ultraman X's Xio uses three vehicles — a patrol car called Athos, a minivan called Aramis, and a truck called Porthos — all equipped with powerful laser cannons to add some extra firepower to support Ultraman X against kaiju. They can also merge with Xio's unmanned planes, the Muskettys, for aerial combat for the former two and hover-based land combat for the latter. |

Spider-Man: This trope was spoofed and subverted in The Amazing Spider-Man (1963) #126, in which a car company gave Spidey the Spider-Mobile for publicity reasons. It was a dune-buggy that could race up walls and came complete with web-cannons. Since Spidey can webswing and crawl up walls on his own, he saw no reason to take it except for the paycheck the company gave him for their product placement. The vehicle was destroyed in the same story. It's been built, rebuilt, and in Spider-Man/Deadpool got a new paint job courtesy of Deadpool to make it the "Dead-Buggy". During The Amazing Spider-Man (Dan Slott), Peter got himself another Spider-Mobile, this one a little more sleeker and with more toys. He lost this along with the rest of Parker Industries during Secret Empire. | |

The old police cruiser used by The Blues Brothers is emblematic of the brothers' style and situation. It is strongly implied that the brothers are indeed on a Mission from God, as the car survives numerous mishaps and displays near-magical powers right up until the moment said mission no longer requires its presence, whereupon it literally falls to pieces on the sidewalk. | |

Stranger Things: Apart from the usual 1970s/early-1980s Oldsmobiles, Ford Pintos, and Chevy Blazers that the people of Hawkins drive, Steve Harrington drives (what is implied to be his father's) 1982 BMW 733i E23, which would have cost around $33,000 new in 1983 (around $80,000 adjusted for inflation today). A 1982 BMW E30 320i (a car which cost $13,000 new in 1983) can be seen pulling into Hawkins Middle School and is seen parked in front of the library in a later episode. Lonnie's also got a 1971 Oldsmobile 442. And then, of course, is Billy's ridiculous '79 Camaro in Season 2, which even gets its own spot on the poster. Season 3 has Hopper steal a 1984 cream-yellow Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz convertible with maroon interior and the license plate "TODFTHR." | |

Jet Striker, which doubles as BFG for the team, Fire Bazooka. Pegasus Thunder, a 4th-generation Chevrolet Camaro with flight ability. Better known to Americans as Lightning Cruiser. The Ranger Vehicles/Turbo Zords also qualify, particularly as the Turbo Zords since those can sizeshift. Taiya's Boonboom Supercar, a customized version of a genuine cool car, a Mitsuoka Rock Star. (It is still a bit fictionalized in having a rocket thruster under the engine hood, but other than that...) |

The Incredibile from The Incredibles. Too bad it was only seen in the opening. His black sports car is stylish, with elements of the Mercedes 300SL, Jaguar E-Type and Corvette Stingray mashed together. It does, however, make a comeback in Incredibles 2 where it's revealed that Bob has a remote for the vehicle that can activate all of its features, including its ability to transform into a boat. And he gets a new Incredibile by the end of the film, this one having a red color scheme. |

Regular Car Reviews generally tends towards the mundane, but there have been some prominent exceptions: a Lotus Elise, a Ferrari 360 Modena (owned at that time by auto journalist Doug DeMuro), at least 3 different DeLorean DMC-12s,note one kept stock, one given the 2010s rebuild treatment, and one with the original engine swapped for a Chevrolet LS and a Toyota MR2 AW11, the last of which impressed Mr. Regular so much he eventually bought one himself. Also, Mr. Regular's classic car project, a 1960 Ford Falcon, dubbed "The Vagabond Falcon". |

The Batmobile in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is a sleek monster, forgoing the usual black for a gray coloring and a little more heavier to deal with Batman's more darker mindset in the film. When it reappears in Justice League, it is outfitted with heavier firepower to deal with Steppenwolf and his Parademons. | |

Inazma Delivery: has three. First up is Hemmingway's delivery van LightningInazma. At first glance, it's just a cute little yellow van but when Hemmingway gets serious, it suddenly goes from a delivery van to an electrically-charged high-speed cannonball able to take serious damage, and with Hemmingway's driving skills, can even drive on walls and ceilings! Next up is Blacknoir, Catherine's modified 1960 Rolls-Royce Phantom complete with a number of spy gadgets literally under the hood ranging from a mechanical arm to a machine gun to a laser to rockets! And finally GiantJumbo, Ballow's big red delivery transport armed with four excavator arms perfect for pulverizing anything in his way. |

In Doctor Who the Third Doctor spent much of his time on Earth driving around in 'Bessie', an antiquated canary-yellow roadster which on first glance would look the furthest thing from 'cool' you could think of. It's quickly revealed, however, that the Doctor's constant tinkering and playing around have made it a super-powered car that anyone would kill to drive. He later traded up for a weirdly incongruous The Jetsons-style flight-capable bubble car. Plus, an antique car fit rather well with his...let's say "classic" opera cape stylings. |

The Fast and the Furious is a series runneth over with Cool Cars so hard, they're pretty much about this trope. Just pick a car, any car. Except for the Chevelle and the Ferraris, being the former apparently uncool and the latter portrayed as "already awesome", all these cars are rigged with the most powerful, badass engine upgrades in the world, enough to make them run like Formula 1 cars, and on top of that, all of them are equipped with bangin' sound systems, neon lights, all sorts of sophisticated control computers (except for the muscle cars, of course, which rely on good ol' humongous block), LCD monitors, and, of course, a lot of Nitro Boost. The list includes: Two sleek Ferraris (TFATF, 2F2F). Four Mitsubishis with an awesome paint job (all movies: two were Evolutions (VII and VIII) and two were Eclipses). Three RX-7s (all movies). A Dodge Charger (TFATF). A Chevrolet Camaro (2F2F). A 1970 Dodge Challenger (2F2F). A Chevrolet Monte Carlo in primer (Tokyo Drift). A Dodge Viper (Tokyo Drift). Two Nissan Skylines (2F2F, Tokyo Drift). A Nissan Fairlady 350Z and Silvia (Tokyo Drift). A green Volkswagen Touran (Tokyo Drift). A 1967 Ford Mustang with a Nissan Skyline engine (Tokyo Drift). Several Nissan GT-Rs (Fast Five, Furious 6). Two Koenigsegg CCXRs (Fast Five). Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV (Fate of the Furious). And the list keeps going on and on and on... |

The Mythbusters treat their cars as cool cars, when most are junkers they got because they knew they would be ruined. Various cars have been fitted with RC rigs, prompting Adam to point out that he and Jamie should cruise for chicks in them, while remaining in the backseat. Their very first myth involved a rocket car, and when speed is a factor in the myths, they tend to call on expert drivers and very cool cars to help. | |

The Ford LTD from Men in Black appears to be uncool at first. J even notes that the MIB have "unlimited technology from around the galaxy, and [they] have to drive around in a Ford POS". He eats his words when it comes time to push the little red button on the stick shift... J's Mercedes in the sequel is a nice upgrade. Agent H's 2003 Audi in Men in Black: International is not too shabby either. It's a literal "rolling arsenal". |

It was red at some point, but age, rust, and countless abuses (including running over werewolves) have worn it down some. He doesn't take very good care of it apart from keeping it in excellent running condition, even shooting it several times with his Hand Cannon just to make a point to another character. | |

The Patty Wagon in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie is pretty cool. It can drive even though it's just a stack of unattached pieces, some of which probably aren't even mechanical, and every part of it is fast food-themed. It runs on frying oil, its wheels are pickle slices, it has actual sesame seeds, etc. Most notably, despite SpongeBob himself having repeatedly failed his driving test and lacking a proper license, "you don't need a license to drive a sandwich," so he can operate it perfectly competently. | |

Just about every single race car in Future GPX Cyber Formula in its many iterations. The main car, the Asurada series of racers, is able to shapeshift (especially in its much later versions) has 6WD (except for GSX, which has the standard 4 wheels), rocket boosters, active fans for extra downforce and engine cooling, and needs an AI supercomputer to be driven properly. Its rivals over the years are just as colorful, including, but not limited to: The HG Series (known as Steel) a family of electric-powered super-racers that leans like motorcycles into curves. The Spiegel Series (from the HG family), a windowless racer that has the driver lie in it like a closed-cockpit luge sled. The Issuxark Series, which has a rotating roter on it. The Ogre AN-21, which is the Super Prototype to the Al-Zard. |

In Speed Racer X The Mach 5 is, as always, very cool. It used to belong to Go's older brother Kenichi, until he crashed and was assumed dead. After that, Pops installed the Safety Seven System, seven functions, like deploying wires or cutting blades, each activated by pressing the corresponding letter on the Mach 5's steering wheel. During the second story arc, the Mach 5 becomes capable of traveling through time when its velocity reaches 555 km/hr. | |

The cars from Burnout, which range from classic gangster cars to slick fifty's cars to modern sports cars. And Burnout Paradise features cameos from the likes of the DeLorean, KITT, The General Lee, and the Ecto-1. If the series were to have a signature vehicle, it would likely be Burnout 2's Custom Coupe (which itself is a Shout-Out to Brian O'Connor's 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse), which has appeared in several other games in the series (as the "Custom Coupe Ultimate" in Takedown, Legends, and Dominator and as the "Kitano Hydros Techno" in Paradise). |

Inspector Morse drove a Jaguar Mk. II, but at the time quite a few British TV policemen seemed to drive a classic car (Bergerac, for example). Ironically, a Mk. II Jag would have been regarded by most TV viewers as a villain's car prior to Inspector Morse, thanks largely to several of them being used as such in The Sweeney, which also starred John Thaw. |

Subverted in 2008's Get Smart. The Tiger Sunbeam Don Adams drove in the first few seasons was part of a Cold War museum display, and after Smart (Steve Carell)'s Prison Break, he takes it to try to catch the bad guys. Unfortunately, though, it runs out of gas shortly thereafter, leaving him needing to find other transportation. Other cars from the series (an Opel GT and Volkswagen Karmann Ghia) also appear in the movie. | |

The Batmobile in The Batman is far less spectacular than previous iterations. It's effectively just a heavily armored muscle car with a rear-mounted jet engine - aside from the tires and the engine, the vehicle looks like it was built piecemeal from whatever Bruce could find, and even the center console looks like it was made from assorted aftermarket components. That said, underestimating the machine would be a very stupid thing to do. While the car may not look impressive, the way it sounds more than makes up for it. | |

F-Zero has a lot of futuristic hi-tech vehicles used in the grand prix. They are all capable of traveling at incredible speeds and hovering slightly above the ground. In the manual to the original F-Zero (1990), it states that the machines uses magnetic repulsion to hover above the track, not unlike modern day Maglev trains. In later games the machines instead used G-Diffusors, sophisticaed anti-gravity devices. | |

The colloquial Cool Car from Most Wanted and Carbon is a blue-and-silver FIA GT2-spec BMW M3 GTR (E46). In Most Wanted, half the reason for the story is to get the car (the other half is revenge) but it's unmodifiable. In Carbon, it's your starting car, but shortly gets trashed. However, completing an arbitrary set of objectives allows you to buy the street version of the M3 GTR, and then modify it to your liking. It also makes a reappearance as DLC in the later Most Wanted (and in the 2015 reboot) in a pack full of other famed NFS cover cars, one of which included... | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer / Angel: Angel's sleek black convertible, not to mention Gunn's vampire-hunting truck (for which he literally sold his soul) Angel had a whole fleet of Cool Cars in season 5. Spike destroyed a few of them. Giles initially drove a potentially cool but very run-down Citroen DS but after Spike wrote it off in a car chase he acquired a shiny red BMW convertible, which was seen as a sign of his mid-life crisis and ridiculed by everyone. And Oz had a van which occasionally got close to being the Mystery Machine. Spike's 1959 De Soto is super cool. Played straight with Cordelia's (Chrysler Cirrus) convertible (QUEEN C) and Xander's (uncle's) 57 Chevy Bel Air. Since Kennedy spearheaded the idea of Slayers becoming bodyguards in Season 9 she cruises around in a red Audi that rivals Giles' Mid-Life Crisis Car for style. |

The Looney Tunes: Back in Action movie had a double subversion of this trope. The first car Brendan Fraser and Daffy find in Timothy Dalton's garage is a beat-up old Gremlin which barely makes it out of the driveway. About a minute after they leave, however, the floor of the garage flips over and a stereotypical spy car is revealed, complete with Bond-esque musical sting. Said spy car is actually a TVR Tuscan Speed 6 which was not even imported to America due to it being only right hand drive. |

Mission: Impossible Film Series: IMF agents, and their targets at high level events, occasionally get to drive very nice cars. The franchise has a partnership with BMW that has resulted in some very nice Beamers appearing in the films. Mission: Impossible III: Zhen gets to drive an orange Lamborghini Gallardo to the Black-Tie Infiltration at the Vatican. She is loath to blow it up despite the plan calling for it, as it is such a nice car. Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol: The team gets to drive a i8 Concept car to the party. Prior to the car appearing he points it out as the coolest bit of "gear" they've acquired for the mission. |

The cars in the Gran Turismo series range from Joke Cars (the one HP 1895 Benz Motorwagen!), to mundane sedans, to nice muscle cars, to great supercars, to awesome JGTC touring cars, to frikkin awesome Le Mans prototypes, to several Formula 1 styled racecars. And then there's the Red Bull X2010. It was created because Kazunori Yamauchi (GT creator) wanted to know what the ultimate race-car would look like (no rules, no regulations). Powered by a turbo V6 generating 1,483 BHP, with 6Gs, or six times the force of gravity possible in a corner thanks to a fan generating constant downforce, a maximum speed around 450 km/h or 279 mph, and saddled with an obviously high 0-60 speed; this is the Cyborg of all cars. And that's not getting into faster versions (see X2011, X2014 Fan Car)... Gran Turismo 6 brought us Vision Gran Turismo, a series of concept cars made by manufacturers of the likes of Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, and Renault-Alpine, and each and every one of them are as awesome as they come. From more "normal" concept cars such as the BMW VGT, the Mini Clubman VGT and the Infiniti VGT, to more over-the-top monstrosities like the laser-powered Chaparral 2X and the 2000 bhp SRT Tomahawk X, this line-up has it all. |

Hello! Sandybell: The fan-nicknamed Sandybell Car (despite being a van), which Mr. Ronwood gave to Sandybell so that she could report news stories better. It has many features, like a built in hose, metal arms, an alarm system, hyper speed, moving doors and many other features that can be accessed with the push of a button. It is plain white with red highlights, and has a red heart on the back with a heart-shaped window. It's sheer epicness stands out in contrast to the anime's realistic tone. And of course, it's piloted by Kids Driving Cars. To ham it up, in the theme song, the van is seen flying while carrying Sandybell and her friends. In Real Life, the anime was sponsored by toy manufacturer Popy, and they intended to sell the Sandybell car as [[Merchandise-Driven merchandise]]. However, it didn't sell well. |

While the Fiat has it's charm, it pales in comparison to his other car: The Mercedes-Benz SSK. That sound you just heard was the collective noise of car enthusiasts jaws dropping in unbridled envy. That said, it often and rather hilariously suffers from being a Chronically Crashed Car. |

The 1976 film version of Carrie upgrades Billy's car from a beat-up '61 Chevrolet Biscayne in the original novel to a ruby-red '67 Chevy Chevelle. The 2002 TV remake gives him a customized Chevy pickup, while the 2013 remake gives him a '71 Pontiac GTO. The car is used to try and run Carrie down during the climax (by Billy's girlfriend Chris in the '76 film, by Billy himself in the other versions), and given Carrie's Psychic Powers, it doesn't end well. Given who Billy and Chris were, the only thing anybody is feeling sorry for in that scene is the car. | |

The entire point of the Need for Speed games is racing and chasing in only the absolute coolest cars. Whether it be finely-crafted exotics, tricked-out tuners, or tough-as-nails police cruisers, NFS has players covered since 1994. The colloquial Cool Car from Most Wanted and Carbon is a blue-and-silver FIA GT2-spec BMW M3 GTR (E46). In Most Wanted, half the reason for the story is to get the car (the other half is revenge) but it's unmodifiable. In Carbon, it's your starting car, but shortly gets trashed. However, completing an arbitrary set of objectives allows you to buy the street version of the M3 GTR, and then modify it to your liking. It also makes a reappearance as DLC in the later Most Wanted (and in the 2015 reboot) in a pack full of other famed NFS cover cars, one of which included... The Lamborghini Diablo SV, which was first iconic car for the Need for Speed series after its appearance in 1998's III: Hot Pursuit. Being the fastest real life car in the game that was also available from the get-go when players first played it certainly helped. It received a good amount of attention in later Need for Speed games, appearing as DLC in 2010's Hot Pursuit, 2011's The Run, and 2012's Most Wanted, and later reappearing in the base games of the 2015 reboot, 2017's Payback, 2019's Heat and 2022's Unbound, satisfying classic fans' nostalgic needs.note Although the 2015 reboot and Payback dropped the iconic SV logo side vinyls, forcing fans to recreate them in the vinyl editors; Heat thankfully brought them back. The most extreme cars of the world also deserve mention: the McLaren F1 (first appeared in Need for Speed II, reappears in various later entries in both original and F1 LM models), the Bugatti Veyron (frequently appears in the series since ProStreet as a DLC car, with Super Sport variant being featured as DLC in Hot Pursuit [2010]), the Hennessey Venom GT (its Spyder variant is a DLC in Most Wanted [2012]), the Koenigsegg One:1 (downloadable for free in Rivals), the Koenigsegg Regera (available in Payback, Heat, and Unbound), and the Bugatti Chiron (available in Unbound). |

The Core Striker from Tomica Hero Rescue Force, which, due to its AI, also doubles as a Robot Buddy. | |

Kamen Rider Double has a car-like vehicle (it doesn't actually have controls, instead being remote-operated by his cellphone), but it holds the parts for his Cool Bike and is indeed pretty cool. | |

McLeach's half-track bushwacker in The Rescuers Down Under, which is absolutely monstrous. It even has a built-in rocket launcher and a crane! | |

Horizon Chase, being a tribute to the 16-bit racing games of yesteryear, features many spiffy-looking rides to choose from, with some of them even doubling as Shout-Outs to certain franchises. That said, there are also some rather... strange choices (the Cable Guy, anyone?). | |

In the second game, if Jake steals the Briefcase Full of Money at the end of "Hard News", he arrives at the building in "Withdrawal" in a newly-bought monster truck. Regardless of if you take the briefcase or not, Jake will always appear later in "the Bar of Broken Heroes" with his default vehicle. | |
