Hi! Tonight (or today) another movie/cartoon car.

The fabulous MACH 5 of Speed Racer (original name "マッハGoGoGo"), a manga and anime from late '60s. Also known in Italy as "Superauto Mach5".
In 1997 was made a remake cartoon with same name (with minor success)

In 2008 was relaunched as movie of Wachowski bro...sisters (yeah, I'm confused too), with discrete success. In my opinon I didn't find the film so terrible and it was very underrated. Good soundtrack, good story, good effects and a nice cast of actors.

Aired in Italy at the end of the 80s, on a private TV channel called "TMC TeleMonteCarlo", the anime had different name and opening theme (as the major part of japanese cartoon dubbed in Italian). Lately, in the '90s was aired on one of main channels, "Italia1" (when I started to watch it).

After the 2008 movie, an official videgame was created for different game consoles (PS2, PC, Nintendo DS and Wii)

EDIT: I just forgot one thing: Probably the Mach5 is inspired (with a custom body) to a Ferrari 250 TestaRossa
