Sally has a baby blue livery, with chrome rims and two sets of headlights on her front and back, respectively. She has a spoiler that flips up and down, which, when down, conceals a black pinstripe tattoo. The Porsche logo can be found on her hood, while the word "Carrera" is printed under her spoiler. Carrera's license plate reads "301PCE". | |||
=== | ===Personality and traits=== | ||
[[File:McQueenSallyCars.jpg|thumb|200px| | [[File:McQueenSallyCars.jpg|thumb|200px|Sally reminisces about Radiator Springs' past to Lightning McQueen.]]Sally has a kind and caring personality, and cares deeply for her friends in her hometown of Radiator Springs, in addition to her immense care for the town itself. Among the residents of the town, she takes the most interest in the history of the town, and during Radiator Springs' lowest point, felt a great deal of sadness when reminicising about what the town was like prior to the construction of Interstate 40 and the removal of the area from maps. However, these feelings were nullified when Lightning McQueen declared the town his official racing headquarters, which restored the interest and attention the town once received. | ||
[[File:SallyCarreraCars8.jpg|thumb|left|200px| | [[File:SallyCarreraCars8.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Sally is disgusted, worried and upset by McQueen's lack of effort when repairing the road.]] | ||
Carrera is among the more intelligent citizens of Radiator Springs, in addition to being viewed as charming by other cars, such as McQueen and Mater. Upon her entrance during McQueen's trial, she catches Lightning's attention, and he begins to flirt with her, feeling an attraction. Despite initially showing contempt and disgust towards McQueen following his destruction of Radiator Springs' main road, the two eventually form a bond, and enter a relationship following Lightning's return to Radiator Springs after the 2005 Piston Cup season's closure. | |||
Sally occasionally shows a sense of sarcasm when speaking, a trait that was particularly noticable shortly after meeting McQueen. Otherwise, Sally speaks knowledgeably, making intelligent statements. | |||
===Powers | ===Powers and abilities=== | ||
As Sally was once a race car, her racing abilities are significant, which are evident in some of her appearances, notably Cars: The Video Game, in which Carrera is a playable character.

Sally Carrera is a main character in the Cars series. She is a resident of Radiator Springs, where she is an attorney, as well as the owner of the Cozy Cone Motel. Introduced in Cars, she is a sky blue Porsche that serves as Lightning McQueen's love interest.
History
Cars
In Cars, during Lightning McQueen's trial for accidentally ripping up the main road of Radiator Springs, Doc Hudson is close to releasing him with no charge, much to Lightning's approval, until Sally enters. Although Lightning finds himself attracted to her, she manages to convince Hudson to sentence Lightning to community service, after giving a long lecture to Hudson and the other residents.
Before being hooked up to Bessie, Mater removes his parking boot, and watches with surprise as Lightning speeds away toward Ornament Valley. McQueen is excited at being able to escape, but it is not long before he runs out of gas, right where Sheriff and Sally are waiting. They inform him that they lowered his gas while he was unconscious in the impound lot, and he is subsequently taken back to the town to serve his sentence.
Later that day, two tourists named Mini and Van show up in Radiator Springs, which causes excitement to all of the shop owners, due to the rarity of such an occurrence. Sally offers assistance with navigation as well as her motel services, which the two decline and quickly leave the town.
Disgusted at the task of repaving the entire road, Lightning finds a loophole in Hudson's sentence, and quickly and carelessly finishes the road within an hour of starting. The road is of terrible quality, and when Sally scolds him, Doc deals with the situation by challenging Lightning to a race; if McQueen wins, he will leave the town with no punishment, and if Doc wins, he must rip up the new asphalt and start again.
The race takes place at the Willy's Butte oval, where Sally and the other residents of Radiator Springs watch with interest. Once the race begins, they watch in confusion as Lightning races off at an incredible speed, while Doc simply waits at the starting line. However, upon reaching the final turn, Lightning finds himself unable to turn on dirt, and goes off-road and into a cactus patch, where he is fished out by Mater and brought back to town to rip up the road.
When everyone in Radiator Springs wake up in the morning, they excitedly discover that a sizable section of the road has been paved neatly and beautifully, and they joyfully drive around on it. Later in the day when Lightning resumes his task, he is visited by Sally, who watches as Red repeatedly sprays Lightning with his hose. Sally then offers McQueen a room in her motel while he stays in the town, which Lightning considers. As she drives away, Lightning notices a tattoo, which Sally nervously attempts to hide, before clumsily entering the motel again.
That night, when Mater is put in charge of watching Lightning, the two sneak out and go Tractor Tippin' in Frank's fields. On the drive home, Lightning and Mater discuss their friendship, and Mater accuses Lightning of having a crush on Sally. She overhears them, and once Mater departs, and Lightning enters the motel room Sally had offered, she drives over and wishes him a good night.
Following Lightning's discovery that Doc was once a dirt track Piston Cup race car called the Fabulous Hudson Hornet, he races to Flo's V8 Café to inform everyone, but they do not believe him. While Lightning is getting gas, Sally arrives and asks McQueen if he wants to go for a drive. The two begin to drive up to Tailfin Pass, but it quickly turns into a race. When they reach their destination, Sally introduces him to the Wheel Well Motel, a run-down building that once served as a motel when Radiator Springs was in its prime. As the two overlook the town from a clifftop, Sally explains the town's past to him, and how it was once popular, before Interstate 40 was built and it was forgotten about.
The following morning, the townspeople wake up to a completed road, with Lightning nowhere to be found. Believing he left, the townsfolk begin to feel sad, before Lightning shows up and proves them wrong. Now that he is free to go, Lightning requests service from his friends, who give him a completely new look. They celebrate by having a cruise night, where Lightning drives with Sally. However, the fun is interrupted when a stampede of Piston Cup press arrive along with Mack, and Lightning is taken away to the tie-breaker race at Los Angeles International Speedway.
Several of Lightning's friends go to the race to act as McQueen's pit crew, much to his pleasant surprise. However, Sally stays home in Radiator Springs, and she, Lizzie, and Red watch the race from a television at Flo's café. Although Lightning loses the race, his good sportsmanship towards Strip Weathers makes him the true winner in the eyes of many fans, as well as Tex Dinoco, who offers him the coveted Dinoco sponsorship.
When Sally is admiring the Wheel Well Motel one day, Lightning drives up to her with a new paint job, and informs her that he has decided to make Radiator Springs his official racing headquarters, where he will stay during the off-season. The two then have a race back down to the town.
Cars: The Video Game
In the story mode of Cars: The Video Game, Sally is one of the cars that competes in the Radiator Springs Grand Prix, Lightning's dream race. When he awakes in the Cozy Cone Motel, Sally is there to greet him, who informs him that there are new cars in town that are looking to race with him, as well as that Doc is waiting for him out at Willy's Butte.
Later, when Sally drives up to McQueen wanting to go for a drive, Mia and Tia interrupt, and excitedly admire Lightning, before also requesting a drive. Sally challenges them to a friendly competition around Radiator Springs, where the winner goes on a drive with Lightning. In this event, the player takes control of Sally.
Following McQueen's third Piston Cup victory, Lightning and Sally go on the drive, to the Wheel Well Motel in Tailfin Pass, which turns out to be a race. Once the two reach the Wheel Well, they look over Radiator Springs, and reminisce about their first trip to the motel.

Sally returns in Cars 3.[1] She is seen watching in horror as Lightning McQueen crashes in the Los Angeles 500. While she is talking to Lightning before the Florida 500, Jackson Storm pulls up to Cruz Ramirez and begins arrogantly mocking her, which makes Sally disgusted.
Cars 3: Driven to Win
Template:Upcoming Sally is one of the six playable characters, the other five being Lightning McQueen, Cruz Ramirez, Mater, Ramone, and Guido, who are available from the start in Cars 3: Driven to Win. This is her first appearance in a Cars game since The World of Cars Online in 2009.
Cars Land
Sally also appears in Cars Land. Her Cozy Cone Motel is a restaurant that serves cone-themed foods, like pop-cone, ice cream cones, cone on the cob, etc.. She also appears in Radiator Springs Racers. When riders arrive in Radiator Springs, she and Lightning welcome them to the race, and either tell the vehicle to go into Luigi's Casa Della Tires for a tire change, or Ramone's House of Body Art for a fresh new paint job.
General information
Physical description
Sally is a 2002 996-series Porsche 911 Carrera.[2] Her engine is a rear-engine 3596 cc flat-6, having a horsepower of 320 at 6800 rpm. Her 0-60 speed is 4.9 seconds, and her top speed is 177 mph.[3]
Sally has a baby blue livery, with chrome rims and two sets of headlights on her front and back, respectively. She has a spoiler that flips up and down, which, when down, conceals a black pinstripe tattoo. The Porsche logo can be found on her hood, while the word "Carrera" is printed under her spoiler. Carrera's license plate reads "301PCE".
Personality and traits
Sally has a kind and caring personality, and cares deeply for her friends in her hometown of Radiator Springs, in addition to her immense care for the town itself. Among the residents of the town, she takes the most interest in the history of the town, and during Radiator Springs' lowest point, felt a great deal of sadness when reminicising about what the town was like prior to the construction of Interstate 40 and the removal of the area from maps. However, these feelings were nullified when Lightning McQueen declared the town his official racing headquarters, which restored the interest and attention the town once received.
Carrera is among the more intelligent citizens of Radiator Springs, in addition to being viewed as charming by other cars, such as McQueen and Mater. Upon her entrance during McQueen's trial, she catches Lightning's attention, and he begins to flirt with her, feeling an attraction. Despite initially showing contempt and disgust towards McQueen following his destruction of Radiator Springs' main road, the two eventually form a bond, and enter a relationship following Lightning's return to Radiator Springs after the 2005 Piston Cup season's closure.
Sally occasionally shows a sense of sarcasm when speaking, a trait that was particularly noticable shortly after meeting McQueen. Otherwise, Sally speaks knowledgeably, making intelligent statements.
Powers and abilities
As Sally was once a race car, her racing abilities are significant, which are evident in some of her appearances, notably Cars: The Video Game, in which Carrera is a playable character. Her statistics suggest she has strong speed and acceleration, but her handling and stability are below average.

- Bios
- "Sally grew tired of her life in the fast lane as a high-powered attorney in Los Angeles and made a new start in the small town of Radiator Springs. Charming, intelligent, and witty, she became the town attorney and the car most dedicated to preserving the town's historical beauty. She bought the Cozy Cone Motel and restored it back to its original condition and has no plans of stopping there. She'd fix the whole town building by building if that's what it took."[2]
