Top Movie Cars & Real-Life Badass Rides
- 3. THE DELOREAN 1 The DeLorean from "Back to the Future." Responsible for transporting Michael J. Fox's character Marty back in time, and then once more back to the future, the DeLorean DMC-12 traveled at 88 mph to go back in time. It may not be the sleekest looking vehicle, but with those trend-setting doors and the ability to travel through time, the DeLorean tops our list.
- 4. BUMBLEBEE 2 Bumblebee from “Transformers.” An alien car that turns from a beat-up old junk car to a beautiful brand-new Camaro and helps Sam save the world. He transforms at will into a powerful Autobot ally for Earth. He’s badass. He doesn’t talk, but he’s able to fully communicate with Sam with very few problems. If only we could all find a Transformer at a used car lot.
- 5. BATMOBILE 3 Batmobile from “Batman Begins.” There have been numerous Batmobiles throughout the Batman series; however, this one takes the cake. It goes from 0 to 60 in just 5 seconds. It can also withstand a 30-foot self-propelled launch. This definitely makes the Batmobile one of the most badass rides in a Batman movie - actually, in any movie.
- 6. TURBO 4 Chevy Camaro “Turbo” Coup from “Turbo.” OK, so this fine vehicle wasn’t actually in the movie, but it was designed to promote the animated film “Turbo.” That’s right. A Dreamworks movie about a super-fast snail now has a supercharged V-8 engine, 700-horsepower driving machine.
- 7. LEXUS 2054 5 Lexus 2054 from “Minority Report.” Lexus was challenged to create a vehicle for Steven Spielberg’s motion picture that would fit the lifestyle of 2054. What Lexus created is nothing short of impressive. The vehicle runs on fuel cells and swagger with a crash-proof structure.
- 8. SHELBY COBRA 6 967 Shelby Cobra, affectionately known as Eleanor, from “Gone in Sixty Seconds.” She’s the scene-stealing unicorn for car thief Memphis Raines, played by Nicholas Cage. If the elusive Eleanor isn’t chosen on pedigree as a high-performance Mustang, then she surely makes the list on sheer beauty. Built by Shelby American from 1965-1967 and Shelby Automotive from 1968-1970, the Shelby was reborn in 2007, but it’s not exactly Eleanor.
- 9. LOTUS ESPRIT SI Lotus Esprit SI from “The Spy Who Loved Me.” It turns into a submarine. We’re pretty sure that makes it one of the top contenders for Badass rides. It was also fully equipped with a cement sprayer for any pursuing vehicles. Few would want to be the villain driving the other car.7
- 10. MINI COOPER BMW Mini Coopers from “The Italian Job.” These aren’t your ordinary Mini Coopers. They were specially designed to hold a LOT of gold and maneuver through the crowded streets of L.A., into the subway while surviving the impact of a jump from the subway back outdoors. Mini Coopers make sense for L.A. driving, but these super-charged Mini’s make stealing millions of dollars in gold bricks look easy. 8
- 11. THE MYSTERY MACHINE 9 The Mystery Machine from “Scooby-Doo.” Badass may not necessarily apply, but it’s definitely the most psychedelic. Plus, you can crunch on Scooby Snacks and chill with Shaggy.
- 12. THUNDERBIRD 1966 Thunderbird from “Thelma & Louise.” One of Ford’s first attempts at a sports car, the T-bird was designed to turn heads. From a small road trip turned crime spree, Thelma and Louise surely turned a few heads with their T-bird. Plus, you can’t forget the scene where Thelma drives them off the Grand Canyon. Yep – the ladies and the car are both Badass. 10
- 13. IN REAL LIFE
- 14. LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4. This badass Italian ride is equipped with a V-12 engine and carbon fiber technology. It represents all things Lamborghini, but is ahead of its time. It’s legendary. (COST: $397,500)1
- 15. MAYBACH EXELERO 2 Maybach Exelero. Only one of these has ever been made, and with a price tag of $8 million, it’s most definitely unique. What makes it badass is the fact that it has a V-12 twin-turbo engine, 700 horses and goes a max speed of 351km/hr (218 mph). That’s more than just a fast car.
- 16. LAMBORGHINI VENENO 3 Lamborghini Veneno. Another Italian has made it on the list. This one is exclusive, since only three cars are available for purchase. It takes 2.8 seconds to go from 0 to 60 mph and reaches a top speed of 221 mph. Priced at $4,500,000, this Lamborghini is definitely a badass.
- 17. LYKAN HYPERSPORT 4 Dubai-based company W Motors, it’s introducing 7 of these $3.4 million sports cars. With a flat 6 twin-turbo engine, 750 horses that tops out at 245 mph, you’re nearly impossible to catch - and quite the badass.
- 18. BUGATTI VEYRON 5 Bugatti Veyron Super Sports. In 2010, it was the fastest legal street car, hitting 0 to 60 in 2.5 seconds. The base Veyron costs a mere $1.7 million. So if you’re trying to race a Bugatti, be prepared to lose to this badass ride. You’ll be a speck in his rearview mirror in no time.
- 19. MERCEDES BENZ SPRINTER 6 Mercedes Benz Sprinter. This fully customized Sprinter is epic for a night out, a tailgater, a mobile office. Equipped with TVs, lounges, bars, recliners and an ultimate sound system, this is a dream ride for the mobile badass. Bring the party everywhere you go.
- 20. CHEVROLET CORVETTE 7 Chevrolet Corvette. It’ a classic. This was the first generation ‘Vette. Popular in the 1950s and ‘60s, it proved that American cars could compete in the sports car realm. Classic and badass is a pretty dangerous combination.
- 21. KOENIGSEGG AGERA R 8 Koenigsegg Agera R. This Swedish sports car is the badass best- of-both-worlds car. It has a detachable stowaway hardtop. You can even fit some luggage in this ride. The best part? It goes 0 to 200 in 17.68 seconds, just in case you’re in a hurry.
- 22. 1969 FORD MUSTANG 9 1969 Ford Mustang. The classic American muscle, the Boss 429 Mustang was not a Shelby Mustang Ford. It had a semi-hemi 429 engine, and Ford had hopes of getting the engine into NASCAR. Even though that didn’t work, this pony car still had the power and the badass capabilities of a longer race and smooth handling.
- 23. ASTON MARTIN ONE 10 Aston Martin One 77. Why is it called the One 77? This badass ride will only have 77 units created. Don’t try and save $1.4 million to buy your own; they’ve already been sold. The One 77 has a V-12 engine with 700 horses and a carbon-fiber body. It does 0 to 60 in under 3.7 seconds. Don’t blink. It has reached speeds of 222 mph, making it the fastest Aston Martin out there.
