Before it became the star of a blockbuster trilogy of films, the DeLorean was the brainchild of the rockstar of the auto industry — John DeLorean. A former GM executive, DeLorean left (or was fired) from GM and wanted his revenge in the best way possible: By launching his own car. A deal with the UK, a plant in Ireland, and finally a trial and acquittal for laundering drug money killed his car. But the DeLorean would go on to have an amazing rebirth and a special place in the hearts of cinema-loving car fanatics.

Teslonda

Hot rods have been an American institution since the advent of the automobile. With the rise of the electric car, there was some worry about the decline of the DIY culture around cars. That's turned out to be a totally unfounded concern — and this Tesla-powered 1981 Honda Accord proves it. Using a Chevrolet Volt battery pack and Tesla electric motors, the Teslonda can go 0-60 as fast as a Bugatti Chiron for a lot less money.

Electric Light Orchestra / Mr. Blue Sky

41 years ago, Electric Light Orchestra's second single for their Out of the Blue double album hit the airwaves and made the metallic clang of a fire extinguisher a musical instrument. Out of the Blue, with its classic '70s artwork and Jeff Lynne at his best, would sell over 10 million copies and solidify the band as one of the biggest groups of the biggest era in rock 'n' roll. Celebrating just over four decades, ELO released this trippy animated video to commemorate the occasion and one of Lynne's favorite songs.
