Plot

From left to right: Chick Hicks, Lightning McQueen, and The King.

Cars opens in the final race of the Piston Cup stock car racing season and championship in the Motor Speedway of the South, where a skilled but arrogant rookie racecar, Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson), has overtaken his opponents, avoided a car accident, and built a large lead over two other prominent figures; the cup's defending (and soon retiring) nine-time champion, Strip "The King" Weathers (Richard Petty), and perennial runner-up and dirty fighter Chick Hicks (Michael Keaton). Because of his refusal to make regular pit stops for new tires, opting only to refill his gasoline tank, Lightning's worn rear tires burst on the final lap, causing him to skid and ultimately crawl to the finish line, barely managing to tie The King and Chick Hicks in a photo finish. Race officials announce that, because the three racers are also tied in overall season points, they will compete in one final tiebreaker race to be held at the Los Angeles International Speedway, and give them one week to prepare.

While traveling down Interstate 40 to California, McQueen becomes separated from Mack (John Ratzenberger), his transport truck, and while trying to catch up he becomes lost on U.S. Route 66, catching the attention of the local sheriff (Michael Wallis) in the process. A chase ensues, during which McQueen crashes, knocks down some tires, almost damages the statue of the town's founder Stanley, and gets tangled in wires, damaging part of the main street of a town called Radiator Springs. McQueen is taken to traffic court headed up by the town's judge and doctor, Doc Hudson (Paul Newman). The town's attorney Sally Carerra (Bonnie Hunt) pleads against McQueen. He is sentenced to repave the road using "Bessie", a non-anthropomorphic asphalt-laying machine. After Mater (Larry the Cable Guy) forgets to hook him up to Bessie before releasing his parking boot, Lightning drives off only to find that his gas tank is drained to a minimum as stated by the Sheriff and Sally at the border of town.

McQueen rushes through his first day of paving; as a result, the new road surface is so bumpy, uneven, and unusable that he is ordered to scrape it off and start again. Doc offers McQueen the chance to leave, provided that he outrace Doc in a race around Willy's Butte. McQueen eagerly accepts, and leaves Doc behind at the starting line, but loses control on a sharp turn in loose dirt and crashes into a cactus patch. Doc effortlessly cruises to the finish line, remarking that McQueen races as badly as he fixes roads. McQueen is forced to scrape the botched pavement clean and start paving again.

As the ensuing days pass, McQueen starts to befriend the other town's residents ranging from Luigi (Tony Shalhoub), Guido (Guido Quaroni), Ramone (Cheech Marin), Lizzy (Katherine Helmond), Flo (Jenifer Lewis), Red (Joe Ranft), Fillmore (George Carlin), and Sarge (Paul Dooley). McQueen learns that Radiator Springs was once a thriving town until the completion of the nearby interstate highway, which bypassed the town, depriving it of its business traffic and visitors and ironically, depriving those passing visitors of the natural beauty found in the scenery along the old highway. He also learns that Sally had left behind a wealthy but unhappy life as a lawyer in California, and that Doc Hudson was once a famous racecar (the "Hudson Hornet", and a three-time Piston Cup champion at that). When Doc catches him looking at his trophies, McQueen asks the reason for which he abandoned racing in the first place. Doc, suddenly offended by this, shows McQueen a newspaper article and states that a crash in 1954 ended his racing career. Doc bitterly refuses to reveal much about his past, dismissing his old trophies as "a bunch of empty cups". McQueen comes to realize that the same racing world that brought Doc fame eventually destroyed him.

By the time McQueen finishes repaving Radiator Springs' main road, he has formed a friendly bond with the town and its residents. Rather than immediately leaving for California (as he had initially intended to do), he spends the day touring the town's businesses, receiving a fresh coat of paint from Ramone, organic fuel from Fillmore, stickers for his bumper, and new tires from Luigi in the process. The town throws a cruise party that night. During the festivities, a horde of journalists descends on the town searching for Lightning, who is then whisked away in his truck, Mack, without even a chance to bid farewell to Radiator Springs. The town's residents are sad to see him leave, while Sally, who has fallen in love with McQueen, is angry to learn that it was Doc who informed the media of McQueen's whereabouts.

The final race between McQueen, The King, and Chick Hicks is described by commentators Bob Cutlass and Darrel Cartrip as the "biggest race in history". Country Gas, East Honkers, and Ermyville are closed for the Dinoco 400, while nearly 200,000 cars watch the race at the racetrack. McQueen is distracted by his memories of Radiator Springs, losing time to the other racers. To his surprise, Doc arrives at the race, accompanied by others from Radiator Springs (except for Sally, Lizzy and Red who stayed behind to watch the race on TV), to serve as McQueen's pit crew. With Doc's coaching, a record-breakingly fast and efficient pit stop for new tires, and a few tricks learned from the small town's inhabitants, McQueen is able to get back into the race after being two laps behind .

As McQueen approaches the finish line, Chick sideswipes McQueen into the infield. McQueen initially skids through the infield, but turns this skid into a controlled drift and heads into first place. Chick sideswipes The King in a desperate attempt to avoid finishing behind him again, sending The King into a terrible rollover crash. McQueen sees this on the Jumbotron and fears that The King's racing career will end in the same way as Doc's had ended. McQueen comes to a full stop before the finish line, allowing Chick to cross first. He then backtracks to push The King across the finish line ahead of him, saying that "I think The King should finish his last race" and quoting Doc's description of the trophy as "just an empty cup". Chick's official victory is hollow, and he is jeered as a cheater, despised for taking out The King, while McQueen is cheered as a hero for his good sportsmanship. Dinoco corporation offers to sponsor McQueen, but he respectfully declines, saying that his current sponsor Rust-Eze gave him his big break and that as a result he wants to continue with them.

Production

Like all Pixar productions, the animation is computer generated. This is a work-in-progress screenshot.

Unlike most anthropomorphic cars, the eyes of the cars in this film were placed on the windshield (which resembles the Tonka Talking Trucks, as well as the characters from Tex Avery's One Cab's Family short and Disney's own Susie the Little Blue Coupe), rather than within the headlights. According to production designer Bob Pauley, "From the very beginning of this project, John Lasseter had it in his mind to have the eyes be in the windshield. For one thing, it separates our characters from the more common approach where you have little cartoon eyes in the headlights. For another, he thought that having the eyes down near the mouth at the front end of the car made the character feel more like a snake. With the eyes set in the windshield, the point of view is more human-like, and made it feel like the whole car could be involved in the animation of the character."^[3] The characters also use their tires as hands and feet, the exceptions being the various tow truck characters who sometimes uses their tow hooks, and the various forklift characters, who use their forks.

The original script (called The Yellow Car, about an electric car living in a gas-guzzling world) and some of the original drawings and characters were produced in 1998 and the producers agreed that Cars would be the next movie after A Bug's Life, and would be released in early 1999, particularly around June 4. However, that movie was eventually scrapped in favor of Toy Story 2. Later, production resumed with major script changes.

Cars was originally going to be released on Friday, November 4, 2005, but on December 7, 2004 the movie's release date was changed to Friday, June 9, 2006.^[4] Analysts looked at the release date change as a sign from Pixar that they were preparing for the pending end of the Disney distribution contract by either preparing non-Disney materials to present to other studios, or they were buying time to see what happened with Michael Eisner's situation at Disney.^[5] When Jobs made the release date announcement, he stated that the reasoning was due to wanting to put all Pixar films on a Summer release schedule, with DVD sales occurring during the holiday shopping season.^[4] is the 308th day of the year (309th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...
