Dan, thank you for sharing it to us. Could you tell us what cars in the animation are? and which car you like best in the film.

If you want to buy a new car in the real world, which car you will buy?

A short introducation about the plot:

本片由迪士尼、皮克斯聯手推出，故事背景發生在一個奇特的汽車世界，在這世界都是一群會說話、能思考的汽車，款式多樣，各種品牌。車庫是他們的家，加油站是他們的餐廳，汽車旅館則是他們旅行的歇腳處。

故事主角Lightning McQueen 是一部時髦拉風的賽車， 以新人之姿過關斬將名列前矛，將在幾天後的加州賽車場舉行總決賽，不料卻在州際公路上遇到意外，流落到傳統公路 Route 66 上的一個荒涼小鎮。McQueen 在小鎮認識了許多新的朋友，原本心不甘情不願被迫留在鎮上勞動服務，卻在跟這邊居民的互動之中，讓他有了全新的體會。生命就像是一段旅程，一路衝向目標的同時，往往忽略了沿途的風景，面對即將到來的冠軍賽，當麥坤養精蓄銳重新上路時，他已有不同於以往的心境…

Lightning McQueen is a cocky, rookie race car. Speeding on his way to a big race, he crashes into Radiator Springs, destroying lots of the inhabitants belongings. In order to make up for what he did, the cocky roadster is sentenced to community service. Though he will do anything to get away from the work, McQueen must learn to respect and bond with the Radiator Springs inhabitants in order to get out of the town and back on the racetracks.

Hmmm... I think I like McQueen, and also Doc Hudson, of course Sally, Guido who can change the tires fast, Mack, especially his container which contains a lot of equipments like a gorgeous van, and Mater, he can drive backward and fast, although he is well rusted. So some cars like Mater I wouldn't buy when I want to, but I like cars like Doc Hudson.

『六十六號公路』可以說曾經是名氣最大的一條美國公路，被譽為『公路之母』（The Mother Road）、『美國第一路』（The Main Street of America）。這條公路由芝加哥一直連接到洛杉磯，甚至還延伸到南加州的聖蒙尼卡，全長２４４８哩（約四千公里），橫跨八個州，跨越三個時區，於１９２６年正式連接完成而啟用，命名為『六十六號公路』，是早年美國境內的運輸要道，有許多電影、電視影集、流行歌曲都以這條公路為背景，孕育出的公路文化影響美國頗為深遠，被視為當年追尋典型美國夢的康莊大道。

到了１９８５年，『六十六號公路』這名號正式被官方廢止，但其實早在此之前許多年這條公路就已逐漸蕭條，如今，在現代的美國公路地圖上已找不到『六十六號公路』的標示了，如今隨著【ＣＡＲＳ】的上映，再度喚起大家對這條公路的緬懷之情！
