I was watching Cars 2 with the kids a few days ago and my boy asked me what kind of car I'd be. I told him I'd be a Jeep (Probably a CJ) , because I like to hike/expore the outdoors, am not very fancy and don't mind being dirty.

So just for fun, tell us what you'd be and why.

i would probably be the hudson hornet, because i can be somewhat cantankerous at times.

Hmmmm...I'm sure I'd like to be something exotic, but I probably wouldn't be. I love to drive so it'd have to something that's fun on the road, handles well, with decent performance and some practicality to it...Maybe I could be my old firebird. 1980's styling, has four seats, sporty, fun, but not flamboyant in any way, shape, or form.

I think I would be a newer GTO. Big, a little bulky, unassuming styling, but can throw the weight around easily and run with big dogs when called on...lol.

ETA: If we were going from the actual movie, my wife would peg me as "Van", the minivan in the first movie that has his GPS, "they said I'd never get lost again!!!"

Yeah, nothing flamboyant about a giant screaming rooster on the hood or gold honeycombs

Nah, that was just there so folks wouldn't call it a camaro

sailordave · 12-21-2011, 04:36 PM

I'd probably be a Chevy Nova Or Ford Falcon of the 60s with an inline 6. Not big, flashy, or fast but reliable.

A Pontiac G8/Holden Commodore with a decidedly South Australian accent.

Definately Finn McMissile the British secret agent ... based on a volvo P1800

or

Holly Shiftwell spy in training ... based on a Jaguar XJR

I watched it last wekend too. I would like to be Dr Zundapp.

oh and BTW- why did they call the Yugo in Cars 2 a Hugo instead? Maybe they did not get legal permission to use the correct name?
