This Delahaye in “The Fall”

I think it was a Peugeot 406 (the sedan version of the brilliant Pininfarina-designed 406 Coupé)
The GTV-6 that James Bond hooned to hell in Octopussy!
The Tatra 603 in A Series of Unfortunate Events (the 2004 movie) – because it fits so perfectly with the atmosphere.
This movie is one of my favorite just cause I love the wonderful old warbirds. But the Alvis and the MG in this movie are just an added bonus. Really just pushes the fighter pilot aesthetic with these British Roadsters. Also made me fall in love with roadsters.
Tyron’s stolen Rover SD1 from Snatch.
“Whoever it was, they put the dynamite under the passenger’s side. But what they didn’t know, what nobody outside the factory knew, was that that model car was made with a metal plate under the driver’s seat. It’s the only thing that saved my life.”
It’s a Malibu. But yes, 100%
The most underrated movie car isn’t a car at all, it’s a Honda Elite scoot with pop-up headlight. It just doesn’t get any cooler.
Gattaca’s 1963 Studebaker Avanti
Drowning Mona (2000)

The first one that popped to mind: The 2CV from the criminally underrated Bond film “For Your Eyes Only.”
Everyone remembers the Interceptor from the 1977 (and subsequent) mad Max movies, but I walked out of the theater dreaming of those Kawasaki (Kwaka’s) Z1000's. Yeah, i’m that old. And I wanted Goose’s bike.
1967 Camaro in Better Off Dead
This one is very easy... the two-tone 1959 Nash Metropolitan 1500 hardtop coupe from 1988's cult-classic “UHF”. Although, it appears to be in near perfect condition, which you would not expect as it is owned by the lovable-loser of a always-down-on-his-luck protagonist, and is a stark contrast to say The Dude’s ‘73…
This Chevy P10....Fiberweed.....
The Volga taxi from the Bourne Supremacy. 14-speed gear shifts in F&F got nothing on the number of licks this sumbich took while still maintaining forward momentum. And it beat a G-wagen. Solid work.
‘64 impala from Repo Man
Whatever the Peugot was that Robert DeNiro drove in Ronin.
