Aside from the lyrics to TV show theme songs, show openers are where all the backstory takes place. And cars have always been vital to character development. What's the best vehicle appearance in a TV show opener?

Cars in show openers don't have to, say, belong to a main character, they just have to be prominent enough for viewers to take notice. For me, there's no equal to the opening of The Fall Guy when Colt Seavers' GMC Sierra Grande jumps a school bus, or leaps over some skell's Porsche 930, then cuts it off. And then, there's Heather Thomas in a bikini. Where were we? Oh yeah, cars. (Thanks to doug-g for today's QOTD.)
