The movie The Blues Brothers it's nothing special in itself, and the cars aren't exactly in the foreground either. However, we remembered the police car well Dodge Monaco from 1974. The film belongs as much as the irreplaceable performance of the two main characters. By 2000, this was the movie they were in broke down the most cars, but was overtaken by the film's sequel, in which exactly one more car was smashed.

Stephen King certainly had a very large influence on the horror genre both in the world of literature and in the world of film. The film was directed by John Carpenter, who summarized King's book well. It was in the movie 17 different Furys, which were made from 24 donor cars. The story of the killer car is such that it had to make our list.

One of the more interesting ones Batman's there are definitely cars Tumbler Batmobile. It was made by a team of 20 car enthusiasts, solely for the needs of the film. So it is a unique car that was made from scratch, and it serves as its basis 5.7 liter Cheby engine with 400 horsepower. At first glance, it's hard to call it a car, but anyway, it impressed us.

A unique story in the so-called slasher the film is about a stunt driver who kills his victims with his car. He doesn't run them over, but 'plunges' them into various and strange car accidents. Matte black color and skull give Chevy New another special stamp. If you are a fan of cars, horror and movies Quentin Tarantino, Death Proof is the movie for you.

8. 1969 Dodge Charger 'General Lee' – The Dukes of Hazzard

The movie The Dukes of Hazzard with Johnny Knoxville, Jessica Simpson and Sean William Scott, it was nothing special and, according to critics, in no way worthy of the original film. But they just hit 'zero' on one thing. Dodge Charger with a nickname 'General Lee'. The orange paint, confederate flag, and non-functioning doors are just like in the original movie. If they didn't praise the rest, at least the Charger is as it should be.

9. 1959 Cadillac Miller Meteor 'Ecto 1' - Ghostbusters 1 & 2

Sometimes we don't need to have the fastest and most powerful car in a movie to make it memorable. It's just enough to stand out from the crowd and be something truly special. Nothing else we can say for Cadillac Miller Meteor, which is recognized even by those who have not even seen the film. White ghost the door says it all, and it's instantly clear to everyone which movie this car is from.

10. 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500 'Eleanor' – Gone in 60 Seconds

Even with this film, there is controversy whether the first one or the second one starring Nicolas Cage is better. We grew up next to each other and drooled over the cars in the movie. And even with us, the weak point was flat 'Eleanor'. Shelby Mustang GT500 inspired several generations to once again embark on the restoration of American 'muscle'. The good news is that if you want it, Fusion Motor Company will make it for you replica car.

11. 1967 Austin Mini Cooper S 1275 – The Italian Job

When the Mini first saw the light of day, it was a popular little car that impressed many. But only after the movie Italian Job his popularity really skyrocketed. They are still classic today Minis highly desired and no less popular than they used to be. People like it because of its compact size and 'go-kart' feeling behind the wheel.

12. Aston Martin DB5 – James Bond

Most of the time he is in the role of a secret agent 007 Sean Connery appeared. He appeared in this role seven times, just as many times as Aston Martin DB5. Because of this, we can say with a clear conscience that the DB5 is the car that belongs to the character James Bond. Of course, this is helped by the fact that it is DB5 still one of the most beautiful cars in the world.

13. 1970 Porsche 917 – Le Mans

Pontiac Firebird Trans Am is a 'cool' car that didn't even need a movie appearance to become popular. Painting on the bonnet has become legendary, they added V8 and the engine provided the icing on the cake. Another American one 'muscle', that excites.

However, the submarine car was not waterproof and had to be operated by the driver in full diving equipment.
