There’s something magical about seeing movie and TV show cars in the flesh.

These aren’t just bits of Hollywood set dressing – they’re full-blooded machines with stories to tell.

At Supercar Blondie, we’ve had the thrill of checking out some of the most iconic rides ever to hit the screen.

From Bond’s gadget-packed Aston Martin to Batman’s roaring muscle cars, these legends prove that on-screen vehicles can be as big a star as their drivers.

1. The most famous of the movie and TV show cars: Aston Martin DB5 Goldfinger Edition – James Bond

Arguably the most famous movie car in the world, the DB5 is pure Bond magic.

Only 25 Goldfinger Editions exist, each fitted with authentic spy gadgets like rotating plates, oil slick dispensers, and even an ejection seat. Yes, they actually work.

2. 1967 Lotus Esprit ‘Wet Nellie’ – The Spy Who Loved Me

The 1967 Lotus Esprit didn’t just drive into Bond history – it drove into the ocean.

Nicknamed ‘Wet Nellie,’ this amphibious wonder could transform into a fully functional submarine. A true double-O showstopper.

3. $750,000 DeLorean Replica – Back to the Future

Great Scott! This DeLorean time machine replica is museum-quality, down to the flux capacitor and keypad controls.

It’s so accurate, you’d half expect Doc Brown to hop out yelling about 1.21 gigawatts.

4. 2013 Local Motors Rally Fighter – The Fate of the Furious

Letty’s desert-smashing Rally Fighter is as rare as it is wild.

Hand-built and packing serious off-road punch, it’s the ultimate ride for fast getaways – in both the movies and real life.

5. KITT (Pontiac Trans Am) – Knight Rider

Michael Knight’s trusty AI sidekick is still one of the coolest cars in TV history.

With its talking computer, turbo boost, and iconic red scanner light, KITT remains the ultimate ‘80s crime-fighting machine.

From the silver screen to real life, these movie and TV show cars capture our imagination like few things can.

They’re more than just props – they’re pieces of storytelling history, each with its own personality, quirks, and thrills.

Whether it’s an Aston Martin dripping with high-tech spy gear, or a Lotus Esprit defying the laws of physics, these cars prove that when it comes to movie magic, four wheels can sometimes steal the whole show.
