What is your favorite car or truck (or any means of transportation) from a film or tv show?
I remember loving the black Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit and Pam Ewing's beige Porsche from Dallas

There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!
Changed my mind. It's the DB5

Fantastic ride. Terrible idea for a supposedly secret agent to go rolling about in, but wonderful set of wheels none the less.
I was always partial to The Green Hornet's Black Beauty.

I like Ferraris... Magnum's real one from Magnum, P.I. and Cameron's dad's fake one from Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
Iron Man's Audi was pretty sweet, too.
For airborne transport... the SHIELD helicarriers in the MCU.
For spacecraft, either the Millennium Falcon or Serenity. Or the TARDIS.
For water travel, the Nautilus from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
I'm gonna give a shout out to the General Lee.
I know.
I was a kid. I didn't know the context. Challengers are cool.
Herbie the Love Bug kicks everybody's tailpipe.

Garth Knight. GOLIATH. 2nd grade through today years old. Shoutout to semi with the Goblin face from Maximum Overdrive though.
Beefing up the old home security, huh?You bet yer ass.
As God is my witness, I still would love to drive the Corvette from Corvette Summer!

Every day is a gift, not a given right.
I always had a fondness for 007's Lotus:

The special features especially...
Since Goliath's been mentioned, I'll bring up KITT. It's neat too that it has many of the same features as today's Teslas, but you can't beat that armor, or the silky voice of William Daniels.
Also strongly agreed about the Black Beauty.
I know the Ecto-1A upgrades in Ghostbusters 2 were purposely meant to be garish to reflect the team's success and tech splurge, but it either looked like it would tip over at a turn or that its bottom could scrape the concrete at anytime (which apparently these were also risks IRL during filming). I get the joke but its impracticality makes me prefer the original Ecto-1.
Since I mentioned KITT and KITT's on the verge of sentience, would the G1 Autobots count for this thread?
And this is an unlikely one, I know, but I just really liked Colin Farrell's car in the second season of True Detective -- another shout out to Dodge Chargers in general. True Detective is not a car show, and it's rarely sentimental, but Farrell's car was dependable with her own share of adventures. I don't know what it is about the way the car was shot (esp. in the final episode) but the rear tail light slit kind of makes me think of the Millennium Falcon if it were a car.
