The DeLorean was a terrible car that became immortal thanks to one film.
Herbie! My childhood favourite.
Ecto-1, who you gonna call 👻
The Minis in The Italian Job made everyone want a Mini.
Bullitt's Mustang chase is still the best car chase ever filmed.
The Interceptor from Mad Max, so menacing.
Where's KITT? Oh right, also TV.
General Lee from Dukes of Hazzard? TV, I know, but still iconic.
The DB5 is the most famous car in movie history, period.
Eleanor from Gone in 60 Seconds deserves a spot.
