I saw the movie with my sister yesterday, I honestly don't think DJ, the blue one pictured above, is an xB, just a fictional car of similar design.

Yes, parts of it look xBish like the roof. But the headlights don't look right at all plus it's only a 2 dr.. I had hoped an xB would be in the movie. I guess it looks close enough?

Ya don't say? And here, I thought ALL the cars (except the Ferrari) were "fictional cars of similar design." Don't over-analyze it, it's a Pixar flick.

Not so--Ramone is a 59 Impala as stated on the Cars website and of course Doc Hudson is a Hudson. But you are right--its a Pixar movie!! Maybe DJ is the much awaited replacement for the xB!

You can obviously tell that Pixar based DJ off an xB though... I mean, its pretty obvious..

Of course it's designed off of the xb/bB. It's got a stupid useless body kit, and an even more useless spoiler, sounds like an xB to me. What other box shaped ricer does America have?

Most of the characters were real cars. There's also the Superbird and Monte SS Nascars, the Miata groupies, the Quattroportes at the end...
Anybody else notice the bad guy (Michael Keaton) character was patterned after Dale Earnhardt? I thought that was interesting, since Dale Jr. has a cameo as himself.
Also mad props for Schumacher as the Ferrari...
