on that note how could anyone forget Jesse's Monte Carlo?
And I guess since I was watching it on tv last night, the Monte Carlo from Training Day. Step into my office.

Breaking Bad's show runners did a fantastic job of pairing cars with characters. Walt's Aztek fit his character perfectly.
There was Badger's Fiero:
Skyler's Grand Wagoneer (and her sister's New Beetle):
Walt Jr's PT Crusier, which epitomized dorkiness:
And Saul's sleazy Caddy:
And finally, Walt and Walt Jr's "I don't give a berkeley anymore, we are rich now" SRT goodness:
Even Better Call Saul is starting strong with Saul's POS Suzuki Low Self Esteem:
The Daewoo Lanos garners the best line in Pineapple Express: "You just got killed by a Daewoo Lanos, Motherberkeleyer!"
Willys MB "Bad Day At Black Rock".
1960 Plymouth Fury "In The Heat Of The Night".
Willys CJ3-A "Coal Miner's Daughter".
"The Getaway" has a lot of early 1970s cars in it but the most interesting to me is the '63 Ford Galaxie.

i am LOVING 'Better Call Saul' so far! 
It flat amazed me when none other than Tuco showed up.
Can't forget Skinny Pete's pale blue T Bird:
Mike E. also had a Buick Lesabre and at the end was driving a Buick Century. The man knew how to fly under the radar for sure.

I'm half tempted to take two containers over there and stuff the best ones in them along with a lotta parts. They have been sitting in the desert since the 1940's; put aside missing lights etc check out the condition of the sheet metal.
Rusty's Ford Falcon from "Ocean's Eleven"
What about the 4 cars Rusty won in Vegas Vacation? A Viper, Mustang, Hummer, and Aspire. I so wanted to win a car the next time I went to Vegas. Yeah that didn't work out. Let's just say I would've much rather drove cross country in an Aspire than ride the train in Chicago at 2 am after a 4 hour delay in Denver. Creeeepy.
Man that Viper's paint job was nasty. Red with yellow wheels? Looked like that cliched McDonalds Donk picture that's been floating around for years.
still on the breaking bad topic.
Gus Fring's sensible Volvo wagon could not have been more perfect for him. Completely under the radar.
Arthur's 1978 Porsche 924.
The ultimate bromobile, the 59 Cadillac from the Deer Hunter
I wish I could find a pic of it with the deer on the fender.
Speaking of which:
Speaking of Clint Eastwood
55 Chevy 3100
Every which way but loose.
