1. Scooby Doo
   Knight Rider
2. The Greatest American Hero
   The A-Team

Michael and K.I.T.T. were an inseparable team, mullet and all. They fought crime, showed us how cool it would be to roll into and out of a mysterious black semi, and pretty much made autonomous cars seem interesting.

1. Ronin
   The Rock
2. The Italian Job
   Mission Impossible 4

One version came out in 1969 and was more comedic than the 2003 thriller. The newer film showed a heist in Venice that involved boats, then another heist later using Minis in Los Angeles.

1. Gone in 60 Seconds
   Fast and Furious
2. Furiously Fast Again
   Death Race

Both the 1974 version of this movie and the one that came out in 2000 put Eleanor in the spotlight, although the older film makes it a 1971 Mustang Sportsroof, while the other makes it a 1969 Shelby GT500.

1. Gone in 60 Seconds
   Ronin
2. The Rock
   The Expendables 2

Many car enthusiasts think the big car chase in Ronin is one of the best in movie history, thanks to its relative realism and unusual pairing of two "family-friendly" sedans, plus the super sharp driving displayed in it.

1. The Dark Knight
   Talladega Nights
2. Days of Thunder
   Baby Driver

One of the more impressive details about the driving stunts in "Baby Driver" is not only are they all real (meaning no CGI) some are performed by the actors. In fact, Ansel Elgort bought one of the WRXs used for the film, he liked driving it so much.

1. The Rock
   Simon and Simon
2. Bullitt
   Air Wolf

Even though "Bullitt" came out in 1968, it keeps influencing the Mustang. When Ford originally released a limited edition of the car that looked like what Steve McQueen drove, it was a hit. Updated versions of the car have been released several times since.

1. Back to the Future
   Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure
2. Goonies
   Gremlins

When "Back to the Future" came out in 1985, it was too late to save DeLorean, an American automaker that had risen and fallen quickly. The film did make the DMC-12 a collector's item, instead of being forgotten in the past.

1. ALF
   The Rock
2. The A-Team
   Mork and Mindy

The A-Team ran from 1983 to 1987, with Mr. T's character likely the most memorable thing about the show. The van, though, is a close second, since it had more personality and flair than everyone else.

1. Death Race
   The Love Bug
2. The Fast and the Furious
   Days of Thunder

Plenty of people loved this cheesy movie, which came out in 1968, and it worked to endear the public further when it came to the Beetle named Herbie.

1. Tommy Boy
   Dumb and Dumber
2. The Rock
   Family Ties

The Mutt Cutts van in this 1994 comedy made such a splash, it's an icon of the film even today. Not too long ago, it went on sale, triggering a wave of news stories about the possibility of owning this vehicle.

1. The Monkeys
   Austin Powers
2. Scooby Doo
   Jane Eyre

In 1997, Mike Meyers mystified critics and struck a home run with fans when he became Austin Powers. The Shaguar has a starring role in the film, and went on to star in others, becoming an automotive legend.

1. Scooby-Doo
   Ghost Busters
2. Pokemon
   Power Rangers

The Mystery Machine originally transported Fred, Velma, Scooby, Shaggy, and Daphne in 1969. Since then, the crime fighting team has enjoyed notoriety with several TV shows and even two live action movies, but this beloved van is always a component .

1. The Fast and the Furious
   Smokey and the Bandit
2. Ghost Busters
   The Rock

In 1977, viewers were fascinated by this film, which essentially is about the most epic beer run in cinematic history. Of course, Burt Reynolds' Pontiac Firebird Trans Am completely stole the spotlight, making the car something after which many people lusted.

1. Home Alone
   Mad Max
2. The Fast and the Furious
   Rocky

In 2001, most people really didn't know much about the tuner scene, other than laughing when they saw Honda Civics with large exhausts and wings bolted to the trunk lid. Today, "The Fast and the Furious" is a wildly successful franchise, for better or worse.

1. Grease
   Batman
2. West Side Story
   The Nightmare Before Christmas

The summer of 1989 was absolutely ruled by "Batman" mania, creating a movement that hadn't been seen since "Star Wars." One of the central elements to the movie was the new Batmobile, which was zany enough to make people stop and really stare.

1. The Rock
   The Spy Who Loved Me
2. Star Wars
   The Spy Who Shagged Me

There's a lot to love about this film, but the part where James Bond plunges his Lotus Esprit into the ocean and it transforms into a submarine just amazed audiences. It's still something people admire today.

1. Short Circuit
   Big Hero 6
2. Transformers
   Mork and Mindy

The 2007 film broke with tradition, since in the cartoon's Bumblebee was always a Volkswagen Beetle. Thanks to GM's sponsorship of the movie, the automaker talked filmmakers into using a Camaro for the robot, and the rest is history.

1. Iron Man
   The Incredibles
2. Goldfinger
   Monsters Inc.

In just 13 minutes of screen time, this 1964 film turned the Aston Martin DB5 into a huge star. Some have called it the most famous car in the world, thanks in large part to the cool on-board gadgets 007 used to fight bad guys.

1. West Side Story
   Grease
2. American Graffiti
   All Dogs Go to Heaven

Before he made "Star Wars," George Lucas directed this movie about kids street racing, long before "The Fast and the Furious." The standout vehicle was John Milner's 1932 Ford Coupe, which was considered a true hero's ride.

1. Iron Man 2
   Batman Begins
2. Man of Steel
   Pacific Rim

To really punctuate that the 2005 reboot of the Batman franchise was nothing like the films before, Christopher Nolan had this custom vehicle built. It looked hulking and crazy, but nothing like the old Batmobile, and it wasn't even called the Batmobile, for good measure.

1. The Love Bug
   The Fast and the Furious 2
2. A Land Before Time
   Cars

When Pixar and Disney launched "Cars" in 2006, many critics thought the movie would be a huge flop. Considering it's still a beloved film to many, thanks in part to the dozens of car-related jokes throughout, it's safe to say that wasn't the case.

1. Better Off Dead
   The Princess Bride
2. Ferris Bueller's Day Off
   Legend

Most people don't realize that the car in this movie isn't really a Ferrari, it only plays one. Instead, filmmakers built a lookalike, thanks to budget issues. That means no Ferraris were harmed in the process of making the film.

1. Christine
   Friday the 13th
2. Halloween
   The Fly

This is a strange book and movie, where a boy buys a car, but then his whole persona changes. Cars theoretically can corrupt you, but usually more in the sense of getting too many speeding tickets or double parking.

1. The Sixth Sense
   Better Off Dead
2. Ghostbusters
   Jurassic Park

A comedic paranormal film was pretty much never done before Ghostbusters, meaning the movie broke major ground. Of course, the Ecto 1 was a memorable part of the film, and still carries a lot of nostalgic weight with people.

1. Animal House
   Thelma & Louise
2. Revenge of the Nerds
   Stardust

"Thelma & Louise" was a groundbreaking film at a time when such movies just weren't made. It also marked Brad Pitt's debut in a major film. Of course, everyone will remember seeing this car careen over the cliff.

1. Gringo
   CHIPs
2. Starsky and Hutch
   The Dukes of Hazzard

The original TV series ran from 1979 to 1985, resulting in the destruction of almost countless Dodge Chargers. It also proved that at the time, people really weren't tuned into the controversial nature of the Confederate flag being displayed on the heroes' car.

1. Blues Brothers
   Scooby-Doo
2. Pacific Rim
   Transformers 2

In 1980, Dan Akroyd and John Belushi engaged in one of the most celebrated car chase scenes ever, thanks to the massive amount of destruction that resulted, immortalizing the Bluesmobile.

1. Hawaii Five-O
   Lilo and Stitch
2. Magnum P.I.
   Mission Impossible 4

During the fourth season of the show, Tom Selleck famously drove this exotic Italian classic. It was a great endorsement for Ferrari, but the actor reportedly barely fit in the car, so thankfully it was a convertible.

1. Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift
   Iron Man
2. Wild Things
   Clear and Present Danger

Robert Downey Jr.'s character, Tony Stark, is known as a rich playboy, so what better car to represent him? It wasn't predictable like a red Ferrari, even though Iron Man's armor is red and gold, and it made quite the dramatic entrance in the film.

1. Black Sheep
   Chasing Amy
2. Stargate
   Tommy Boy

David Spade's character is pretty anal about caring for this, his personal car, and freaks out about​ anyone even eating in it. When he and Chris Farley are road tripping and hit a deer, they load it in the back. The deer wasn't dead, wakes up, and proceeds to destroy the car in the most hilarious fashion.

1. Death Proof
   iron Man 2
2. Death Race
   Rat Race

This Quentin Taratino film had the director's mark all over it, from the gross amounts of violence, over-the-top plot elements, and even the brashness of the car itself. The ending is too good to spoil, so see it if you haven't.

1. Pokemon
   The Green Hornet
2. Enter the Dragon
   Jumanji

In the 1960s, this TV show was a popular hit, with Bruce Lee playing the Green Hornet's sidekick. The car was loaded with all kinds of cool toys, like a telephone, guns, even brooms to hide its tracks.

1. The Rock
   Rock Island
2. Fraggle Rock
   Mad Max

When Mad Max hit movie theaters, it was a pretty unusual film. Mel Gibson fought a good fight as an Australian policeman in a dystopian future, and he has his car, called the V8 Interceptor, to help with his mission.

1. Pacific Rim
   Gran Torino
2. Jurassic Park
   Better Off Dead

When this film hit theaters in 2008, it really made people stop and think. While the Gran Torino was obviously central to the film, the plot made quite a few bold statements about present-day society in several dimensions.

1. Bullitt
   Wayne's World
2. The Rock
   Transformers 3

One of the most famous scenes in "Wayne's World" happens inside the AMC Pacer, when Garth and Wayne are listening to Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, singing along with plenty of emotion.
