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. :wink:

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 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.

I guess for me I would take either one of the James Bond Aston Martins. The DBS, V12 Vanquish, or the DB5.

2nd choice would be the yellow VW Bus from Little Miss Sunshine.
03/01/2008 @ 03:08:26: badlymad: If you could to buy a movie car...
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...

I'm not really sure, which is the no.1 and which the no.2 for me:

http://imcdb.org/vehicle_2075-Dodge-Charger-R-T-1968.html

Like carchase says ...this is a hard choice.! :smile:
From childhood, it would be the tv series Batmobile (lincoln futura) ..but I don't think this would be very practical for normal driving.! :grin:
I also loved in my teen years KITT (..if only it was real.! :smile: )
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 :wink: )
The Car from the movie "The Car"
http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/2529/thecarmf7.th.jpg
I think that would get a few peoples attention.! :grin:

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):

Either the 1992 Ford Tempo GL from "The Third Person" or the 1988 Mercury Topaz squad car from "Ravage"
16/01/2008 @ 23:55:58: wickey: If you could to buy a movie car...
it is very difficult to chose from the tremendous number of movies, but maybe
Aston Martin DB5 from Goldfinger - http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_1820-Aston-Martin-DB5-1964.html

or Volvo P1800 from The Saint - http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_107144-Volvo-P1800-1962.html

or Isotta-Fraschini Tipo 8A from Sunset Blvd. - http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_54604-Isotta-Fraschini-Tipo-8A-1929.html
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.
