'''Buford''' is one of [[Mater]]'s cousins. Since his debut appearance in ''[[Cars: The Videogame]]'', he has become a recurring character in the [[Cars (franchise)|''Cars'' series]], making several appearances in the video games, as well as in the ''[[World of Cars]]'' book which details his background. Despite his appearance, Buford is actually a talented demolition derby racer. His license plate is completely blank, although there appears to be a stain on it, which means it could have previously read "Buford". | |||
Buford is a rusty blue demolition derby race car that has his number on his front-end boards and a rusty bumper. He seems to be based on a 1983 [[Dodge]] Aries Coupé or 1983 [[Plymouth]] Reliant Coupé. In his video game appearances, Buford has the number 20 painted on his doors and number boards, but in ''World of Cars'', he has the number "7". He also has six pinstripes in the games, but only four in the book and on his [[Mattel Disney Pixar Cars|die-cast model]]. | |||

The ''World of Cars'' book reveals that Buford, along with Mater, [[Cletus]] and [[Judd]], were bullied by [[Bubba]] and one of his friends when they were younger. However, Mater challenged Bubba to a backwards race, and since he could not successfully make a turn around [[Stanley]]'s statue, he lost and Bubba subsequently stopped bullying the four cousins. | |||

Buford is one of Mater's cousins. Since his debut appearance in Cars: The Videogame, he has become a recurring character in the Cars series, making several appearances in the video games, as well as in the World of Cars book which details his background. Despite his appearance, Buford is actually a talented demolition derby racer.

In his video game appearances, Buford has the number 20 painted on his doors and number boards, but in World of Cars, he has the number "7". He also has six pinstripes in the games, but only four in the book and on his die-cast model.
