who did you contact, and what type of car is it?

lriicelboy

I think it's an xB.. look at the name.. DJ? 5axis DJ xB? yeahhh

xlethal

i think it looks more like that chevy hhr concept car then anything else....

Boxer_Rebellion

^^^ Yep.

curtydc

Looks nothing like a PT Cruiser...
I doubt it.
I'm sure you did...
I don't think it looks anything like that, and who would rice an HHR?
Honestly, who rice's PT Cruisers to look like anything other than a Hot rod, who rice's RAV-4's? Who rice's an HHR concept? Sorry but the only boxy shaped car being riced around here is the xB.

Boxer_Rebellion

You're taking this all way to seriously. Pixar is obviously making fun of riced-out cars, so they're not gonna use specific models and ____ the manufacturers/owners of those vehicles off.

Ahmen. It's a FREAKIN' MOVIE!!! I enjoyed it, thought it was funny. Larry The Cable Guy (Tow Mater) says GIT ER DONE!!! Come on, what more can you ask for??

Big_Bird

seriously guys, calm down, its an animated movie, i totally agree with wizzlexB and Boxer_Rebellion
it could be modeled after an xB, it may not be, its a kid's movie, let it go

bB2NER

^^ Exactly Right^^^ I still kinda think it looks enough like an xB for me but it doesn't really matter. I just wanna go see the freakin movie before it goes to video.

I-Fly-High

Im with them it was an awesome movie that tried to please all car enthusiests (sp) by portraying all walks of life. I give Pixar two thumbs up for creativity and can't wait to see what has been under their sleave when they break away from Disney in the next movie.

P.S. Can anyone tell me what the emblem in the middle of the dirt track that lightning spins out on?

rogcjms

i think DJ in the movie is a xB, somewhat. when i saw the movie this weekend the first thing I thought when i saw it was "that's a box!" I do think it is an xB just highly modified. just my opinion though...

shaved door handles, molded doors............ explanes the 2 door. hey rice can get to its finest .... that 300 disc changer is awesome..... not really. Im still convinced it was to resemble the xB, so what does the green import with 6 wings resemble then?

bB2NER

I would say Eclipse or that huge multi winged plane that always caves in on itself when it tries to fly.

bBlover

Ooh Quattroportes!! Really?? New ones right? Don't forget about the Williys Jeep, Sally Carrera and then Mack. Its looks like a xB a lil.

Fujiz_xb

xb's are 4 door that looks like 2 door

I thought the same thing when i first saw it but after really looking at it as best i could i wasnt quite sure. It would be cool if it were supposed to be an xB.

I remember reading an article in autoweek where one of the Pixar guys said something about the box cars from Japan. I think he liked them if I recall. This wasn't in the issue that featured the Cars movie. It was in a couple of issues earlier.

INTENSE_POWER

it looks like a blue toyota tacoma with a camper on it.

Here's a section from the autoweek.com article:

John Lasseter

TITLE: executive vice president creative, Pixar Animation. Responsible for Toy Story, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles and Cars, premiering June 9
CELL PHONE: The latest I prefer is the new Razr. The one I have now is a flip-open classic V70 Motorola, just because it came with my Mercedes—an SL55 AMG. I believe in hands-free, and the Mercedes system works great.
SHOES: I always wear these guilty-pleasure shoes—Merrell slip-ons. They’re athletic, but they’re basically like a house shoe. Kicking them off and getting them back on is great on planes. I have them in all colors.
HOME: I’d say it is “wine country,” with a little Victorian detail. Crown moldings, octagonal tiles, white brick tiles and pedestal sinks in the bathroom. It’s a white wood clapboard house with a huge wraparound porch. We’re working on a new house.
COLOR YOU WOULDN'T BE CAUGHT DEAD IN: That’s hard for me to say since I always wear Hawaiian shirts. I’ve never been a big orange fan.
CAR ICONS: Europe: Volkswagen Beetle and French GTV high-speed trains, Asia: Tiny Japanese box cars like Scion xB or Nissan Cube, America: I was raised a Chevy guy, but the Ford F-150

There may be some influence from the xB on that car.

bB's in tokyo drift though.
