In episode 6.17 "Walk Like a Man" after yet another dispute with Christoper, Paulie rips up his front garden by doing doughnuts in his Cadillac CTS and running over his plants and bushes. In episode 6.18 "Kennedy and Heidi" Christopher is driving Tony home from a meeting in his Cadillac Escalade EXT, while fiddling with the CD player he drifts into the opposite lane and has to swerve to avoid another car, the Escalade starts to fishtail and he comes off the road and rolls over and over down a steep bank, coming to rest at the bottom, a major crash to leads to a major event in the story.

As he gets out of the car he is shot in the head by one of the Soprano family hitmen, his wife screams and jumps out of the car, however she leaves it in Drive and is locked out, so the car creeps foward towards Phil's dead body lying on the ground and the wheels roll over his head, a sickening crushing sound is heard. -- Last edit: 2012-05-14 19:43:12 |

I wonder if the show had continued, what Tony would've replaced his 03' Escalade ESV with. |

We have finished watching at this long TV series for few weeks. It's an amazing master piece in TV series! Every thing is perfect and the sound track is a masterpiece for itself too... Everybody who have liked this series must be very sad of the loss of such actor J.Gandolfini. By the way, there are cars missing from the Ep.6.11 during Carmela and Rosalie's journey in Paris... Aircraft page to be completed soon. |

Only background traffic/parked cars. I'm sure I got pretty much everything that is 2-star (and noticeable 1-stars obviously chosen for the scene) -- Last edit: 2013-07-16 00:06:46 |

A 2007+ Escalade? That's hardly the biggest question the series left |

Thanks a lot for the excellent HD captures Davez621 I've uploaded them for you. If you'd like to add some more 1 star cars, I don't mind you submitting them, but try to keep to stuff that's quite noticeable ie. prominently visible in the scene, avoid everyday cars that are passing by or in big car parks (because then this page would get too big) By the way, if some cars used in episdoes seem to be missing, it'll probably be because they've been grouped together under entries for cars of the same model eg. /vehicle_501617-Cadillac-DeVille-1994.html -- Last edit: 2013-10-25 16:19:04 |

I assume all the screencaps are from Bluray? |

@nukeinmw2: from which episode does that Subaru you've provided come from? |
◊ 2021-04-18 20:50 |
From the Intro, like: /vehicle_43752-Chrysler-LeBaron-1986.html |

It was a swapped photo from the Chrysler LeBaron page, so it was deleted |
