50+ Easter Eggs In The Cars Movies

Pixar is basically the best there is when it comes to leaving Easter eggs in its films to its previous films, as well as other subtle references for its fans to pick up as they’re watching. If you’re a Pixar fanatic, it’s almost certain that you’ve at least spotted a nod or two in their movies before, or maybe you’re an eagle-eyed Easter egg hunter extraordinaire who’s known for pausing mid-scene to get a closer look at something small in the background or for counting every reference you spot. No matter how good you are at catching subtle references or Pixar in-jokes buried in its movies, it’s almost impossible that you’ve caught every Easter egg in the Cars franchise. Besides Cars 1, 2, and 3, the Cars franchise has also made Cars Toons, as well as the upcoming Disney+ series, Cars on the Road and, most likely, the rumored Cars 4. This franchise is expansive, but beyond that, it also packs its films so full of cheeky references that it’s hard for even the most well-versed Pixar expert to catch everything. From many nods to its previous films that range from right out in the open to well-hidden to Pixar in-jokes and references to its offices and creators, these Easter eggs are all over the map. So, fasten your seatbelts and make sure you adjust your rearview mirror just right; we’re gonna need all the help we can get when it comes to spotting everything that’s hidden in the Cars universe.

A113 is also seen on Mater's lisence plate and Sidney’s rudder.

George Carlin wasn't just a standard comedian and the voice of Fillmore in the first "Cars" movie; he was also the narrator for the first season of "Thomas the Tank Engine", which was the original railway stories written by the Reverend W. Awdry come to life and starred talking vehicles as well, and played Zugor on "Tarzan 2" and the wizard on "Happily Never After". I've seen a music video on "Ants In Your Pants" that contained a car who had his eyes in his headlights. Not all the characters from "Cars 1, 2 and 3" had their eyes in their windshields. The headlight seller in the second "Cars" movie had her eyes in her headlights.

3:16 that flat face big rig is a reference from the first cars movie where lighting is chasing after him before he ended up in radiator springs

[Jay-cfxb]

Fun fact, Fin McMissile's number plate (314 FMCM) is the birthdate of the voice actor for Fin, Micheal Caine, 14th March, and FMCM would stand for Fin McMissile

[Instinktjagd]

having the eyes in the windshield make sense cause mia and tia are greeting mcqueen with the headlights and its called flashing

flashing is also smth else 💀

[jamesrandall]

1:30 I hope I'm not the only one who noticed those Disney stuffed animals on the top right. (Not a Cars Easter egg but defiantly an Easter egg.)

[allisonkrueger]

11:52 I saw that one, they even squeak as Mack passes them 😂😂

[mexicanfoodlover]

The chemistry and camaraderie among the performers in this video were palpable, it made the content even more enjoyable.

[joshuaW]

It makes sense for the Pizza Planet truck to be present in Cars.

[ahumanperson]

There was a cars racing game for the play station 2, I can't for the life of me remember what it was called, but the thumbnail with sully and Mike as cars is a Easter egg In the game, If you find enough collectibles (all 200) you unlock a new character, you have to save and quit, start a new game (there's three game slots) and than I stead of starting as mcqueen, you start as sully, who's a monster truck, and instead of normal races, they're truck rallies, its nostalgic thinking about it lol

Also #8 was Dale Earnhardt Sr. and his race car was black and red. Sometimes he’s also drive the Sundrop Car.

Mia And TIa: Oh my gosh! Thanks for showing that Easter Egg! (giggles)

[Swe_Slipknot]

I'm so happy that they have the eyes om the windshield

[MaddHatter]

Yes, Captain Sig Hansen at the beginning of the film as the crab fishing boat the Northwestern, one of my personal favorites!

[fratguvendiren]

I heard somewhere about the reality of the school bus in cars 3 as the school bus that a pixar employee used to go to school. I don't know how accurate it is.

[GabrielFigueroa-oqus]

If you look closely above the characters eyes in the windshield you can see a little bit of dark black shadows the way I see it those are eyebrows but they are just not designed like the thick black ones on other cartoon characters.

[swaggyamw]

Ngl, these Easter eggs just makes the movies even better

[RubyTheRubikscube]

In cars 3 there’s a billboard advertising the sleep well hotel from toy story of terror or whatever it’s called.I think it’s either before or after lightning and cruse’s argument

[zeaylv]

12:43 Finn Mcmissile is literally James Bond, but if he was a car lmfao

[YACF]

the fact that he said bingbongs wagon was in there in the first and second movie is an impossible stretch because both of the first two cars movies came out before inside out did there fore the cars movies wagon is in insideout
