In "Donnie Brasco," there's a funny bit of dialog about whether Lincoln or Cadillac are the best wiseguy cars. But my favorite is the '58 Chrysler Imperial Crown Ghia limo that takes Michael back to Tahoe after the Havana escape. That's one of fewer that a dozen made by Ghia of Turin, Italy, that year--and at $13k, it was the most expensive US car of that year.

Sonny's car was a '41 Lincoln Continental. A very classy ride. But he must have been very attached to it, because by the time he was whacked, he could have bought a later model.
FFC showed fanatical attention to detail in the Trilogy. Nowhere is his devotion to accuracy more powerful than in the cars he chose to show. Any fan of classic cars will have a field day with the Trilogy. Conversely, in "The Valachi Papers," a so-so Bronson vehicle, the cars shown are sometimes laughable.

The Lincoln seems more traditional cosa nostra. That's what I'm going with.

Don Cardi cool

Five - ten years from now, they're gonna wish there was American Cosa Nostra. Five - ten years from now, they're gonna miss John Gotti.

me and my friends have been debating on the Chevy Suburban

i know the traditional mob cars are the Lincolns and the Cadillacs and the Mercedes. but one of my friends (while watching the sopranos) said the suburban has been to be known as a car for wiseguys too. and i was like whered you get that from? i know tony has that vehicle but anyone know or seen another wiseguy drive a suburban?

Haven't seen it in any movies (yet), but this has got to be the ultimate Mob car. The 2006 Cadillac CTS V

More modern Dons got more upscale:
--Gotti had a chauffered Mercedes limo.
--Carmine (the Snake) Persico drove a Rolls Royce.
