x2. Also, BOTH Cannonball Runs. As mentioned above, the first two Smokey and The Bandits (Third one was most certainly @$$). Some good car scenes in Hollywood Knights and Dazed and Confused, too.

Nothing beats Bullitt.

the car in the movie cobra

Sylvester Stallone is my favorite actor, I love Cobra, I'd love to get a '50 Merc some day, which is what he drove in that movie. A couple of the cars were for sale years ago that they used in the actual movie. The movie Driven Stallone did was awesome too. There is one movie I can't think of, its been bothering me for a while, its on the tip of my tongue, I forget who's in it, its about a guy with a Red and White '55-'57 Chevy Bel-Air, think its a '55 or '56, who is murdered by a gang of guys. He then comes back from the dead all scarred and in this awesome old bel-air and he kills them one by one getting revenge, kind of like Christine. If anyone thinks of this, let me know. -Jeff.

I finally found out what it was. The plot is different than what I said. I haven't seen it in a while and forgot about it. Its called "Sometimes They Come Back", its from Stephen King its about: Desperate for work, troubled high school teacher Jim Norman (Tim Matheson) relocates his family to his rural hometown after procuring a much-needed job there. Once home he must relive and confront a childhood nightmare: the high school hoodlums who murdered his older brother in a tunnel ambush, and were killed themselves by an oncoming train, are slowly rising from the grave to finish the job by killing Norman. The ghostly hooligans, who appear as flesh and blood to students, start "transferring" into school when some of Norman's students mysteriously perish; however their phantom, fire-spitting car is invisible to all but their victims. Suspicion for the inexplicably rising student-body count soon falls squarely on Norman, who must find a way to protect his wife and son from danger, vanquish the supernatural hoods, and cast off the shackles of his past. I love this movies. Has a cool poster to. Posted it down below. -Jeff.
