In the animated movie "Cars", what kind of car is Lightening McQueen?
I know that he's a racecar, but I need to know what make and model he is. Can anyone tell me?

According to a Detroit News article about Pixar, Lightning McQueen is an original with inspiration from a number of models:
"The main character, Lightning McQueen, is generic, too.
“It’s a Pixar design,” Sorena said.
Asked why, she said: “I think they wanted to make him ‘the best’ ” and thus not peg him to any one model.”"
Best answer greatly appreciated.

vvvvvvv Jan Stolz, isn't the famous car from Bullitt a Mustang?
Source(s): Sorry, source article is no longer free here's one that mentions that it is nothing in particular. http://en.autos.sympatico.msn.ca/guides_and_advice... - Anonymous1 decade ago
He's Steve McQueen's (notice the similarity in names) Dodge Charger from the movie "Bullit."

he's just a generic stock car... like in NASCAR. Most stock cars have the same basic shape and have to fit a mold, so the outsides are all basically the same.
