I gotta go with the TVR Tuscan from Swordfish. It'll always be one of my favorites, and it was in my color of choice to boot.

Being 8 years old when this movie was released, there was no way I could resist the allure of this vehicle from Smokey & The Bandit!!


Other honorable mentions go to the yellow Cord from The Hollywood Knights and the '55 Chevy from American Graffiti.

Also....there was a "B" movie back in the 80's that used Prova Countach Replicars. I think it was called "It Takes Two"

Not real Lambo's....but there were Bad.!!

Ah yes... Christine. That was an excellent movie! Loved how that car put itself back together after killing his friends! I wish my car could do that...
