In ''[[Cars 2]]'', Miguel is invited from [[Spain]] by [[Miles Axlerod]] to compete in his World Grand Prix series, in order to promote [[Allinol]] to the entire world. According to [[Brent Mustangburger]] and [[David Hobbscap]], he has been really consistent, especially in technical turns. During the first race in [[Tokyo]], he is the first to get his engine blown by the lemons' [[Professor Z's EMP weapon|electromagnetic generator]], which has been made in an attempt to show that [[Allinol]], amongst other alternative fuel, is entirely dangerous, we can hear his gasps when his engine blown. He calls into the pits right away to retire, while his pit crew, led by [[Petro Cartalina]] and including one of his pitties, [[Honk Cho]], investigate the issue. | |||
[[File:Cars 2 Turntable "Miguel Camino"|thumb| | At the second race in [[Porto Corsa]], Miguel can be seen from from the 6th position. Later when the racers head down towards the hairpin, he is seen in the 10th position ahead of [[Rip Clutchgoneski]]. Miguel reappears in the race only to get into a tangle with [[Shu Todoroki]], who has just had another engine failure also caused by an electromagnetic pulse. [[Max Schnell]], who cannot stop in time, collides with the two of them, thus blocking the track on the bridge around [[Casino di Porto Corsa|the casino]]. With the racers' safety in jeopardy, Axlerod announces that the final race in [[London]] shall not require the use of Allinol. Therefore, Miguel chooses his own fuel for that race. When the race starts Miguel was seen in the 3rd position but after racing through the [[Admiralty Arch]] he dropped to 4th and was behind [[Lewis Hamilton]]. The race is soon abrupted by [[Mater]] comes onto the track with [[Lightning McQueen]] chasing him and later taking them both through the streets of London. Axlerod is soon revealed to be the mastermind of the lemons, and Miguel competes in the [[Radiator Springs Grand Prix (Cars 2)|Radiator Springs Grand Prix]] with all the other World Grand Prix racers. | ||

==Trivia== | ==Trivia== | ||
*[[Fernando Alonso]] | *[[Fernando Alonso]], who appears in the Spanish version of ''Cars 2'' in place of [[Jeff Gorvette]] in one scene, shares Miguel's model and nationality. | ||
*Miguel | *For some reason, his [[Mattel]] [[Mattel Disney Pixar Cars|diecast]] has a red spoiler, while his [[Disney Store]] diecast correctly has the black spoiler. As of 2024 it remains the inaccurate color. | ||
**However, it was corrected on his Neon Racers release. | |||
*The essential guide for Cars 2 claims Miguel's top speed to be 175 mph/282 km/h, which is not the case as his top speed is the same as Lightning McQueen and Jeff Gorvette's, that being 200 mph/322 km/h. | |||
*Miguel Camino is a 2007 Grand Touring Sports SS-E Racer, a Pixar in-house design that draws inspiration from various vehicles but is primarily based on a 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10-ACR. While this particular Viper hasn't been seen at European endurance races, it's track-focused variant, the Viper SRT-10 ACR-X, has been used in racing leagues such as the Dodge Viper Cup Series and the Trans Am Championship. | |||
*While Vipers are typically powered by V10 engines, Miguel is powered by a DOHC V8 with 570 HP. Though there are various LMGT1 and LMGT2 cars with a DOHC V8, Miguel's engine sounds very similar to the one used in the Nissan GT-R GT1 and the Matech Ford GT1. It also sounds similar to the V8 engines found in muscle cars. | |||
*A vintage poster for ''Cars 2'' showing Miguel, [[Raoul ÇaRoule]] and [[Francesco Bernoulli]] can be seen in [[Dusty Crophopper]]'s garage from ''[[Planes]]''. | |||
*His name is a pun on the [[Chevrolet]] El Camino. Funnily and interestingly enough, his surname means "road" in Spanish, and such thing didn't officially exist in the universe until [[Andrew Vrooman]] from ''[[Cars 3]]''. | |||
** In addition, the "SS" term from his vehicle model name "SS-E" stands for 'Super Sport', a performance option package offered by Chevrolet for car models such as the Chevy El Camino. | |||
*His Polish name, "Miguel Alcantara", is a reference to the city [[wikipedia:Alcántara|Alcántara]] in Spain, in the province of Cáceres. | |||
*Based on an older concept design, there was a originally a [[Ferrari]] GT2 based on the Ferrari F430 racecar, similar to Michael Schumacher. However, this character was scrapped and was replaced by the Spanish GT2 champion, Miguel Camino. | |||
*His Para España, ICE and Neon paint jobs in ''Cars: Fast as Lightning'' are all based on the Silver Racers, Neon Racers and Ice Racers lines from the [[Mattel Disney Pixar Cars|1:55 scale die-cast line]]. | |||
*In ''[https://pixar.fandom.com/wiki/Lamp_Life Lamp Life]'' and ''[https://pixar.fandom.com/wiki/Toy_Story:_That_Time_Forgot Toy Story: That Time Forgot],'' there is a toy car similar to Miguel and Fernando Alonso. | |||
**Multiple appear in ''Toy Story: That Time Forgot'', along with toys that resemble Shu Todoroki and Rip Clutchgoneski. | |||
