Do you remember all the cars in “Herbie the Love Bug”?
If you said “yes,” then you’re likely either a) the creator of the movie b) a verifiable Love Bug nut or c) lying.
I mean that film was a downright traffic jam!
Still, that doesn’t mean we can’t take a drive down memory parkway and remember some of the most iconic cars from “Herbie the Love Bug.”
1956 Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta (#14)
What it does in the movie: This is a racing car driven by Ray’s brother, Doug. It has an accident at one point during the race and because of this, Herbie gets to be able to run his own way from then on.
1955 Osca MT4 Barchetta (#18)
What it does in the movie: This is a car that Doug buys to replace his Ferrari. It’s flown from Italy, and its engine blows up while he’s driving on Malibu Road. Herbie is done for too, but then gets re-energized after watching some other cars race past him.
1957 Chevrolet Two-Ten 2-Door Sedan (#23)
What it does in the movie: This is a car that Herbie hovers over and manages to make contact with. It’s owned by Harry, who falls out of his car when he’s startled by the bug (and there are some other cars on top of him). Later, this two-door sedan starts driving along an autocross track and crashes into a tree.
1959 Devin D (#47)
Who drives it: This four-door sedan is the car that ends up pushing both Herbie and a black Volkswagen Beetle off of an autocross course. It’s driven by a white man in glasses, who we see again later in traffic (without his hat) on the freeway while talking to someone on a cell phone.
1959 Austin-Healey 3000 (#64)
What it does in the movie: This dark-green sports car is owned by a man named Harry, and comes into play during an autocross event. After Herbie’s initial crash with another car (in which he ends up being pushed off track), this Austin Healey tries to take its place on the course when some of the other cars abandon.
1960 Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta (#54)
What it does in the movie: This is one of three cars that chase Herbie during his first escape from Harry’s garage.
