Your car is an extension of yourself -- whether it's a sexy Lamborghini or dented van filled with fast food wrappers. Some of the most famous characters on TV would be naked without their cars: The A-Team would be lost without their high-tech gear and not-so-stealthily painted GMC van. Here are ten of the coolest cars on TV.
10. Starsky and Hutch: 1974 Gran Torino
This baby wasn't a hunk of junk, as Hutch would have you believe. It was Starsky's prized possession -- and it got the duo where they needed to go.
9. The Partridge Family: 1950s Chevrolet bus
The Partridge Family's bus: a sensible option for hauling all those kids around and encouraging merry music-making.

I think the 'Striped Tomato' should rank a little higher and question whether the Flintstones car should even be on the list since it really isn't a 'car'.
How about the Munster Mobile from The Munsters? THAT didn't make the list?
I forgot about the Corvette from Corvette Summer. Sorry I know it's a movie car but it's a bad car and most people don't know anything about it. How about the 67 Stingray Corvette from the show Equalizer?
What about the Fall Guy? How about the Mustang II in Charlies Angels? If your going to talk movies then it has to be the Bandit 77 TA.
Yeah, better have the Impala on this one....lol
I agree that "Herbie" belongs on a movie list, not this one.I also don't think the Batmobile should be as high as it is. The Mystery Machine ought to be in the top 10, too.So, no love for Sid and Marty Kroft's Wonderbug, eh?
hey! What about Nash Bridges' car?!
Jim Rockford's Pontiac Firebird...we even came up with the verb "to Rockfordize" - stomping on the gas when turning a corner!
I had the strangest dream once,and this feature brings it to mind...I dreamed I saw Starsky and Hutch's Gran Torino on the north side of Minneapolis all stripped down and eaten up with rust and propped up with jack-lifters, with a bumper sticker that said; "Prevent birth defects, ban country music" on it's corroded rear bumper. God knows, I've seen enough cars of that make and vintage in that condition for real. Ahhh...the 70's!
Magnum PI's Ferrari 308 - the only one that goes fast for real :Dhttp://motoring.sky.com/siteimages/storage/2008289/MagnumPI308GTS.jpg
knight rider car's the best kitt is so cool
No Coyote from Hardcastle and McCormick? Insanity reigns!
the 1967 impala is awesome,KITT still rules,Batmobile legendary..but some of the list dont fit with the agenda..a bus? a cartoon? movie cars?
what happen to those Ferraris? the Stingray/stingray? the lamborghini/automan? the coyote? the 1965 Sunbeam tiger/get smart? the flymouth barracuda? happy days hotrod? wonderbug? could ve been a better choice
Scooby Doo? I mean really?
I have to concur with the poster below on Jim Rockford's Pontiac Firebird Esprit and the Miami Vice cars, both the Corv and the Testarossa. And what about Secret Agent Man?
ass i mean.
love the kite car and dodge chargr from the dukes and the bad as car from supernaturl.
The Man / Girl from U.N.C.L.E. car was really cool so was John Steeds Bently or Emma Peels Lotus!
Herbie the Love Bug really belongs in a movie list. I'd have included 'My Mother The Car' - no matter how you feel about the show, or better yet, "KAR 120C", the car used by 'The Prisoner' in the show's opening credits and returned to him in the final episode....
KITT is the best!
Impala is the baby of this show (supernatural)
Magnum's Ferrari (or Robin Masters)
My Mother, the Car?
Dean's Impala is the best ever!
Personally, think that 1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am was one of the coolest cars ever in the history of TV, but I think that there is one car that should have been included in the list, and it's not, and that is the Gadgetmobile, from the cartoon series Inspector gadget. Still, the list is quite good.
Impala is the nicest car there!
If the Partridge Family BUS is on there (which it shouldn't be because it's a BUS... not a CAR, then BJ and the Bear's 18 wheeler should be there too... or at least replace the bus. I'm just sayin'
Dean Winchester's 76 Chevy Impala kick ass!
I agree this list kind of blows. What about the Coyote from Hardcastle & McCormick or Fall guy's pickup. Even the Dodge truck from Simon & Simon is better than Herbie or Flintstones or Partridge bus. If you are going to open it up to movie cars, then you need to consider any of the Bond cars, or pretty much any car from the Cannonball Run movies. I don't agree with this list at all.
what happened to Alex Tully's 1976 Dodge Challenger from the show Drive? That was one hott car.
i love the Chucks nerd herd car haha
KITT, A-team van, Batmobile are on the money!!!! Not being Funny Herbie is a Movie Car, not a TV Car!!! Would of prefered to see "The Full Guy" Pick up, Munsters Coach, The Highwayman's Lorry/Helicopter!! Come on people your surposed to be TV experts. Leave the movie stuff to IMDB!!!
I don't understand why the Partridge family's Chevrolet bus is on the list.
The Impala is THE BEST car on tv ever!!!!
impala rocks.!
The impala is Definitely my favorite car, that car is awesome...!
NO M.A.N.T.I.S. CAR
add a comment
Yes the original 60's Batmobile. The best tv car ever!
Car 54, where are you?
MONKEE MOBILE
MUNSTER'S CAR
Way to go Impala. Dean's car rocks, and so do a lot of the other cars on the list
LOL boldozz, ye right xD
KIT should be the number one car of tv, i don't even know why in hell they cancelled the show. it was growing on becoming a greater show than mr hasselhof has ever done with his nice abs
WOOHOOO! For Deans Chevy!! Its a truly beautiful car!
