Those are all awesome rides fer sure. But I'll still take my Porsche, either Jake Ryan's in "Sixteen Candles" or Joel Goodsen's In "Risky Business".
Porsche. There Is No Substitute!

I'd also throw into the list Uncle Buck's car; I'd just love seeing the looks on people's faces every time it backfired.

The jet car in Buckaroo Banzai was an odd one, this was before the days of CGI over-use so they put a real jet engine on it!
If anyone else has seen Cherry 2000, the car Melanie Griffith drives looks like it could win a few races.

Isn't that movie from the 70's?
(Groucho Marx voice) Congratulations, you said the secret word!
Seriously, I'd definitely like to get behind the wheel of the DeLorean from BTTF. Once I learn how to drive, and if I can get the money, I'll buy a DeLorean. There are still a few plants that make them.
Sincerely,
John Kilduff

If it were a practical vehicle, I'd take Lone Starr's space Winnebago too.

I loved the Delorian. True artwork. Also, if you count movies shot in the 80's but release in 1990 - the Lamborghini from Pretty Woman

And...for a lover of classics: the Ferrari out of Ferris Bueller's Day off. Man, I'd like to have a cruise in that Posts: 232 | From: Brisbane, Queensland, Australia | Registered: Mar 2005 | Site Updates: 0

I'm with Devolution and The Wizard here. The Wraith's Turbo Interceptor gets my vote hands down. DeLoreans are slow and who cares about time travel when you have a super-cool car straight from outer space!!

Actually, you're both wrong. Definitely not a Countach. No Lambos in that movie. It was a Ferrari, you got that right, but not a 308. It was a Mondial. Since, as far as I know, all 308s were made as Targas with a removable roof section, I don't believe there is such a beast as a 308 Spyder anyhow.
You were also correct that the other car was a Porsche. A 928. Not a convertible, though. They never built a 928 'vert.

The Green Goblin Semi from Maximum Overdrive...totally bad*** looking, but i think there might have been something fishy going on with it...

My favorite is Cindy Mancini's VW Rabbit convertible in "Can't Buy Me Love." Inspired me to get one of my own!
