Geez, I just saw that. WEll, to me the best car would have to be a Dodge Viper, from the terrible tv show...I think it was called Viper.
The General Lee is the coolest car ever, END OF THREAD. I did like the Fall Guy's truck, though. I had a K.I.T.T. big-wheel when I was a kid that was great, too. It had a windshield and everything. When my dad put it together on Christmas Eve, he forgot to put the handbrake on and COULD NOT get the damn rear wheel back off. The poor guy was actually close to crying, telling my mom "I've ruined Christmas!" Finally he somehow got the damn thing on there. Of course, the brake was a lame piece of crap that I never used anyway. Too bad he didn't know that...
I voted for the Miami Vice cars (I knew they were Ferraris - I almost rented a replica 70 Spider like that one build on a Corvette frame back in 89 $300 a day which was a lot cheaper than the Lamborgini at $1K a day) I do wish now I could have voted for either of the Munster cars. I could never get over the physics (not engineering) behind the saws on the front end of the Speed Racer car that made roads through the forests. I know, I know - it's a cartoon but if you are doing a 100mph and hit a tree with a saw turning at 100,000 rpm - it won't be pretty.
For $25K, you can buy your own KITT. http://www.bkauto.net/1984 Trans Am 2.htm I almost talked my wife into letting me buy this. I was totally serious.
I'm stumped, anyway. Have a vague recollection of the phrase, but suspect it's about a horse, not a car, so you got me beat.
That one I know. The Green Hornet (soon to be a major motion picture written and directed by Kevin Smith).
Excellent. What word was originally considered instead of grasshopper as a nickname for young David Carradine? If there is one, I sure as hell have never heard of it...
