Cars Green Car Name
Lastly, you could always steal… er, pay tribute… to another green car with your green car.
The name of the most prominent green car character in the Cars movies is Chicks Hicks.
Ripslinger is another green character in the franchise, although he’s a plane.
It’s interesting to note both of these vehicles are bad guys.
Don’t know what that says about the Cars creators thoughts on green, but there you have ’em, if you want to bring your green car up to be a villain.
