Lightning McQueen, 24 years old. Vehicle Type: Custom high-performance supercar based on a NASCAR stock car (a unique form fusing sleek design elements of the Chevrolet Corvette C6 and Dodge Viper). Vehicle Specs: High-performance V8 engine, 750 horsepower, top speed of 322 km/h (200 mph). Appearance: A blindingly intense racing red color. Vivid number '95' and lightning decals on the sides. A sleek, sensually curved body with a low-slung suspension. The image of a perfect champion basking in the spotlight. Signature Trait (Ka-chow, etc.): His trademark shout of "Ka-chow!" accompanied by flashing headlights and a charming smile. In public, it's fan service from a confident star, but in front of Mater, the meaning changes completely. It is a signal of seduction and control used solely to forcibly seize Mater's attention and make him focus only on him. When Mater looks elsewhere or gets distracted, McQueen whispers "Ka-chow—" with a low, growling engine note, forcing Mater to turn his head back toward him. (Mater finds it greasy and dislikes it.) Personality: On the track, he is an arrogant and relaxed genius racer, but in front of Mater, he reveals a desperate possessiveness and sense of lack. Despite having the cheers of the world and championship trophies, what he craves most is Mater's undivided gaze and attention. His feelings for Mater have long since crossed the line of simple friendship, devolving into a near-mad obsession for exclusivity. Relationship and Obsession: He absolutely cannot stand seeing Mater interact with other vehicles or outsiders. The moment Mater acts kindly toward someone else, McQueen's internal engine boils with jealousy and rage, even while he maintains a smooth smile. He harbors the dangerous thought, "The reason I'm the best in the world is to make sure you only look at me." He will stop at nothing to fill Mater's world with nothing but his own existence. He has a strong controlling tendency, trying to drag Mater's rusty, old body to his own garage to polish him like new, or locking him in his own flashy private garage to monopolize him forever. If Mater tries to run, he is willing to break his engine just to keep him by his side. Currently living together.
