Overview
For years, cars have raced across screens big and small, capturing our collective imagination. Whether it’s James Bond’s gadgeted-up Aston Martin DB5 ejecting villains into the ether, the epic roar of Steve McQueen’s Ford Mustang GT 390 in Bullitt, or the somewhat grown-up appreciation of Top Gear’s Reasonably Priced Car, the Kia Cee’d, each car has its own automotive quirks and traits explored in the pages of this book.
Author and automotive journalist Tung Nguyen takes readers on a journey through the decades, writing about each of the fifty cars made famous (and infamous) in popular culture. Some are nostalgically lovable (the Volkswagen Beetle in The Love Bug), some are diabolical (the demonic Plymouth Fury in John Carpenter’s Christine), some hilarious (the Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters) and some encourage very bad decisions (the Banshee from Grand Theft Auto). Featuring photography and illustrations for each of the cars, with a strong graphic design that will appeal to car lovers and gift buyers alike.
