Disney Pixar Cars About This Page:

Hello oh knowlegable ones! Although this will be our 5th trip 2 WDW and we only went Jan last year, we can't remember, as its never been an issue before, if there are any Cars attractions/shows/parades.
DD (yes DD) will be 3 when we go and is Lightening McQueen mad so I wondered if there'll be anything there.
I love the fact that every time we go, the girls are a bit older and therfore into different things.
The other one can't wait for the HSM show

My 3 yr old son is also VERY into Lightining McQueen! At Hollywood Studios they can meet Lightning McQueen and Mater........ I'm very excited to do this with my son this year. My DD (and Son(10)) is also into HSM! We seen the HSM show at DHS last year and look forward to seeing it again! Have fun meeting McQueen!!

My DD2 loves Cars. SHe watches it at least once a day. And she is constantly playing with the cars. Last weekend I was at the Disney outlet store and instead of fairies or princesses I had to buy her Cars LOL.

Hey,, I see now how girls pick the boys, they look at their cars before they decide to date them

This is cool can't wait to see them myself.

My DD is a HUGE Lightning McQueen fan..she's 6 now...but she was 4 the first time she "met" Lightning McQueen at Hollywood Studios. She just stood there...in awe....it was so cute!!

As far as I know, the only thing in WDW is a meet n greet....they're not in the parade or anything.

There's the meet and greet in the Studios and while it's not an attraction per se, the gift shop in Test Track seemed to have a fair amount of Cars merchandise.

Does any one remember those mini van in the movie that was passing by the town? or am I seeing things. Because I try to fine the toy little cars of them and it no where to be found. I hope I could drive my chair a long with Lightning McQueen in a parade that would be cool. Imagine my chair could talk lol what it would say.

Yea, I know the van's your talking about- the Dh and Dw that get lost going through town trying to find the interstate. I've never seen those for sale either; I guess they didn't fall into the "main character" category.

thanks for that guys,we will all look forward to meeting them soon

Thank You, now I know I wasn't seeing things, I would love to have one to mounted on my van dashboard. lol Maybe ask Pixer to make a couple of the to members who would be interested.

As far as the Lighting & Mater meet 'n' greet goes, you'll want to get there about 15 minutes before the cars are scheduled to make their appearance. The cast members usually attempt to form a line, but it more often turns into a mob around the cars. If you're there early, you can grab a few good pictures before everyone shows up. It's also a magical moment to see the cars driving up the street that you won't want to miss.

Have a magical vacation!

When we were there in June/July, the park was really busy but we had no more than a 5 minute wait to see Lightning and Mater.

There were chains up and lines had to be formed in order to get in to see them, so there were no "crowding around the cars" issues. The CM's only let one family/group in at a time and waited to let the next folks come in until the previous group was pretty much on the other side of the exit chains (where there was a CM directing folks out).

The nice thing about the way they were/are doing it is that I was able to get pics of JUST them before DD got in the picture then was able to print that pic in a poster size to hang in DS's Cars themed room! I don't think it would have been easy to do had they not done it that way. :

Oh I'm glad to see they are still around because DS is a CARS fanatic. Getting to meet Lightening and Mater will make his day.

[jbd]

Thanks for this! DS is mad about the movie...bedding, watch, hat, underpants, t-shirts, shoes...you get the picture. He'll flip when we go!

I am really excited about seeing the Cars characters. DS will be 3 when we are there in December and he is a serious fan! Cars movie, Cars bedroom, every Cars toy...he's a little obsessed
