Lightning Mc Queen
Lightning McQueen, typically referred to by his surname McQueen, and occasionally called "Stickers" by his girlfriend Sally (a light blue Porsche roadster), is an anthropomorphic racecar and is the main protagonist in the 2006 animated Pixar film Cars, and the secondary protagonist of its sequel Cars 2. He was named after Pixar animator Glenn McQueen (who died from skin cancer in 2002), not actor and noted racing buff Steve McQueen. He is based on generic NASCAR vehicles, but with design influences from the Mazda Miata and Dodge Viper . Late in the film, he is painted much like the Chevrolet Corvette C1.

Famous quotes containing the words lightning and/or queen:
“O, better that her shattered hulk
Should sink beneath the wave;
Her thunders shook the mighty deep,
And there should be her grave;
Nail to the mast her holy flag,
Set every threadbare sail,
And give her to the god of storms,
The lightning and the gale!”
—Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
“What a mysterious faculty is that queen of the faculties!”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
