When she first rolled into [[Radiator Springs]] in 1927, it was love at first sight -- love for the town and love for [[Stanley]], the town founder. But she kept Stanley on the soft shoulder for months. Until one day, she realized that Stanley's vision for a new oasis in the desert had enraptured her, too. From that day on, the two became the inseparable heart and soul of the town. Lizzie and Stanley eventually got married and remained together until Stanley died. As Lightning McQueen helps bring Radiator Springs back to life, Lizzie is seen talking to the statue of her husband, saying, "Oh, Stanley, I wish you could see this.", implying that she still misses him. Lizzie is a minor character in the sequel. She greets Lightning McQueen when he comes back to Radiator Springs, but didn't even know that he was gone all this time. Strangely, she doesn't see him off at the airport. At the end while Mater is telling a story she talks with Mack.

In ''[[Cars]]'', Lizzie is introduced as the crazy lady of Radiator Springs. She owns the local curio shop, and collects postcards that she sells and keeps as a hobbie. She has a knack for sneaking up on people and slapping their rear end with a souveneir bumper sticker, which gets on most cars' nerves. She clearly has short term memory loss, and like [[Fillmore]] goes on and on about "the old days".

In ''[[Cars: The Video Game]]'', Lizzie is showing [[Lightning McQueen|Lightning]] her postcard collection when a fan turns on and blows them all away into the open world of [[Carburetor County]], which Lightning is sent on a quest to find.

In ''[[Cars: Mater-National Championship]]'', Lizzie is mostly seen slapping a bumper sticker onto Lightning after a stadium race or accomplishment such as beating all the levels of a certain minigame. She was also mentioned in a conversation between Lightning and [[Sheriff]], where Lightning sent his friend [[Otto Von Fassenbottom|Otto]] down to the shop to pick up a curio for his girlfriend [[Jenny]].

Lizzie is a Radiator Springs original. She's a little old lady, but still an active businesswoman who uses her moxie to sell bumper stickers, mud flaps, and other [[Route 66]] memorabilia from her curio shop.

She's as feisty as she is brash. Lizzie's unswerving frankness and offbeat comments keep the townsfolk and tourists on their toes, even though she has no idea what she's just said.

In ''[[Cars 2]]'', Lizzie is only seen in the crowd of townies surrounding Lightning when he comes home.

In ''[[Time Travel Mater]]'', Lizzie plays her first major role as [[Stanley]]'s love interest. When she broke down near the newly founded Radiator Springs, he gave her a cap that fit her fine, and the two became fast friends and immediately began to like each other, When [[Mater]] and Lightning skip in time again, it is her wedding day with Stanley at the courthouse, and the two are married and begin to honeymoon. At the end, Lizzie thanks Lightning for introducing the two of them.

Lizzie doesn't play a role in [[Cars Land]] as big as other characters. Her only clear appearance is in [[Radiator Springs Racers]]. After you come to [[Radiator Springs]] after you go tractor tipping with [[Mater]], Lizzie is in front of her Curio Shop, and falls asleep.

==Personality==

Little is known about Lizzie's personality because she rarely speaks, and it is constantly changing. She is considered crazy by the rest of the townfolk, usually for her random words and ironic phrases. She also has a history of sneaking up on others, particularly Lightning McQueen, and slapping them with bumper stickers.

Lizzie is painted mostly black, with purple headlights and gray treads over her black rims. She has very tiny black mirrors.

Lizzie is an old 1923 Model T.

==Occupation==

Lizzie owns the local curio shop in Radiator Springs, where she sells stickers both custom made and shipment ordered. She also collects postcards, for many decades, but it is unknown whether she sells them or not. As of ''[[Cars: The Video Game]]'', she has 20 in her collection.

*Lizzie is an old [[Ford]] Model T 2-doors Sedan.

*The name comes from the fact that the Ford Model T's nickname was the "Tin Lizzie".

*Lizzie is one of the oldest cars in the movie.

*Lizzie spoke 2 lines in [[Cars 2]], just like [[Mack]].

*For some reason, Lizzie, [[Fillmore]], and [[Mack]] are the only three inhabitants of Radiator Springs that did not participate in the final battle against the Lemons in England at the end of the sequel. Also, she and Mack are the only inhabitants of Radiator Springs who didn't come to England.

*In [[Cars Land]], there is a picture of Lizzie and Stanley getting married shown.

*Lizzie unsurprisingly is not a playable character in [[Cars 2: The Video Game]], probably due to her old age.

==Merchandising==
