Movies that inspired you to buy cars.
We all like movies and we all love car chases in movies. So let us know what movie and what car from that movie you want most in your collection now. Or maybe you already have that car in your collection and watching it in a movie made you go to your display cabinet and admire the model all the more. Give us your stories ladies. Big Grin

If you can't dazzle them with brillance, baffle them with bullshit.

RE: Movies that inspired you to buy cars.
I definitely definitely want the Dodge Charger that Vin Diesel roars in the first Fast and Furious movie....I think Ertl has made an exact version of that one with the huge badass turbocharger jutting out the hood in a menacing way.....man just loved that movie and love the car!!!!

RE: Movies that inspired you to buy cars.
I believe I have a few movie cars. The one I rushed about was the Merc 280 SE convertible after watching this movie called "Hangover'. Luckily I got it in same color.

I would love to get the Jeep Grand Cherokee as featured in the movie "Breakdown" a bone chilling thriller and one of my favorites.

+1...i want it too. but Karan, are you sure hat's a turbo?? it may be the air intake for the carb. engine. when you press the gas pedal the fuel line opens and the air intake valve, which was seen in the last scene of the movie. i may be wrong though.

the other cars which i want-

1. Hangover Mercedes
2. Fast & furious (2009) Nissan Gtr 34
3. James Bond Aston Martin DB5
4. The Fast & the Furious (2001) Honda Civic
5. American Graffiti '32 Ford Coupe
6. Gumball Rally Ferrari Daytona.

RE: Movies that inspired you to buy cars.
There is only one car which has been added to my wishlist after seeing a movie, Audi A8 W12. I badly need this saloon, the problem only Kyosho makes one and its bloody expensive but one day...

Edit: Just saw that Diecast got one.
