21. The Porsche 928 from Risky Business

When the teen of wealthy parents in a ritzy Chicago suburb is left alone while his parents vacation, he decides to take their Porsche 928 out—I mean, who wouldn’t? Of course, calamity occurs and the car is trashed, prompting the teen to open a brothel at his parents’ home to raise the repair costs. The movie launched Tom Cruise to stardom and forever cemented that sexy silver Porsche 928 into the minds of a generation. The movie earned itself legendary status and comparisons to The Graduate.
