If you were able to buy any car from a movie, what would you buy? This is something I would have to think about for a little bit so I'll pop back in later.

Why not? Surely, this had happend in the past.
So some years ago there was a -uncomplete and overpainted- NSU RO 80 to see in the music-video "Can't hold us down" of Christina Aguilera. Very interesting, because only a very few RO 80 were exported to the US.
A few months later it was sold at Ebay for not much money, something about 300 $ or so.
A friend of mine has bought a 1973 VW K 70 LS, which was driven by IRA-terrorists in the British movie "Hidden Agenda" of 1990.
Often cars, you can see in movies, are rented. I know a guy, who is a car-dealer in Bremen. Several cars, you can see in the German "Tatort"-criminal-movies are owned by him.
Somewhere in my emails I have the link to a company, who is looking for classic-car-freaks, who will loan their cars to movie-companies.

I like the FJ55 Toyota Land Cruiser in The Mist. Plus it would have to have all the extra lights and such.

I'm not a Mustang guy, but i think i'd take the Bullitt Mustang.

I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on Neville’s "Dark Seekers" killing machine ... I am a fan the book and I loved the movie; so why not own a piece of film. I would never use it as a daily driver though, I would only take it to car shows or something like special automotive events.

everybody know what is the movie car that i really want...hehe
i could sound a bit crazy, but i wanna ride that 4x4 on my city and then some off-road trips(u know, if it was mine this car will have steering wheel)so, u know, mud, mud, and mud lol
well, at least some mountains trips, cross a few rivers, go out the mud...and im really sure many people will ask me if im the owner of that customized jurassic park explorer ''can i ride?''

I guess for me I would take either one of the James Bond Aston Martins. The DBS, V12 Vanquish, or the DB5.
02/01/2008 @ 22:24:18: ahight: If you could to buy a movie car...
easy one for me....Herbie!!
2nd choice would be the yellow VW Bus from Little Miss Sunshine.

The black Charger from Bullitt would be a nice car, but none of the ones used exist anymore.
03/01/2008 @ 03:32:32: Wampa-One: If you could to buy a movie car...
The Better Off Dead Camaro...

Gosh this is difficult, hmm, ive thought this many times and i'd love to have a museum with cars used in chases, that woud be great
and to drive oh well, i dont know, there are so many, i always liked both Explorers and Wranglers from Jurassic Park
or Back to the Future's Delorean
honestly i dont know, there would be so many i'd li9ke to own, like Matrix Cadillacs too
Seven series from Tomorrow NEver Dies, but with all the accesories huh
Ronin's M5... also, from Jurassic Park i always loved and still do the huge motorhome, gosh i really love that vehicle since i saw it from first time when i watched the movie, ive been always looking for a model of it but never found one
That's it.

Like carchase says ...this is a hard choice.!
From childhood, it would be the tv series Batmobile (lincoln futura) ..but I don't think this would be very practical for normal driving.!
I also loved in my teen years KITT (..if only it was real.!
)
Others to choose from, Steed's Jag XJ 5.3 Big Cat (I've just listed this elsewhere on the forum among 10 of my all time favorites
)
The Car from the movie "The Car"
I think that would get a few peoples attention.!
04/01/2008 @ 02:21:30: G-MANN: If you could to buy a movie car...
Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters, it would be great for funerals.
04/01/2008 @ 10:12:20: 58_Roadmaster: If you could to buy a movie car...
A 1957 Dodge Coronet 4d sedan used in season 4 of Lassie 1957-58. I'm not a truck guy very much, but after the sedan the show used a 58 Dodge stepside and later 60s sweptside Dodges. There were also Dodge and Plymouth wagons with Forest Service markings.
This was just posted from a different film (Thanks no_car):
04/01/2008 @ 10:43:42: 02Silverado4x4: If you could to buy a movie car...
Either the 1992 Ford Tempo GL from "The Third Person" or the 1988 Mercury Topaz squad car from "Ravage"
25/01/2008 @ 16:36:05: Leoz: If you could to buy a movie car...
Easy, the Adams Probe 16 (Durango 95) from 'A Clockwork Orange'. Of course, I would o a lot of work on the engine so it would be a lot faster and handle better.
19/02/2008 @ 20:23:25: Super Blue 72: If you could to buy a movie car...
Boy....tough decisions.....can't just pick one....I would say:
1. Mad Max Interceptor
2. Corvette in Corvette Summer
3. 427 Shelby Cobra in Gumball Rally
23/02/2008 @ 19:44:15: firebird86: If you could to buy a movie car...
1970 Dodge Challenger R/T from Vanishing Point.
