Collection: MAGNUM PI
In the 1980s television series "Magnum, P.I.," which starred Tom Selleck as private investigator Thomas Magnum, several iconic cars were featured, becoming an integral part of the show's identity. Here are some of the notable cars from the series:
-
Ferrari 308 GTS: Perhaps the most famous car from the show, Magnum's personal car was a red 1980 Ferrari 308 GTS. It was the car he drove when not on a case and became synonymous with the character and the series.
-
Robin's Red Corvette: Magnum's friend and fellow private investigator, Jonathan Higgins (played by John Hillerman), also had a striking car. He drove a red 1979 or 1980 Chevrolet Corvette C3, which added an extra layer of contrast between his character and Magnum's.
-
Island Hoppers Helicopter: While not a car, Magnum's primary mode of transportation was the Island Hoppers helicopter. He used a Bell 206 JetRanger, which he piloted to and from cases and often played a key role in various episodes.
-
Dodge Power Wagon: T.C. (played by Roger E. Mosley), another of Magnum's friends, drove a 1979 or 1980 Dodge Power Wagon W300 in the series. This vehicle was featured prominently, especially in episodes where it was used for various missions and adventures.
The cars in "Magnum, P.I." were not just transportation; they were extensions of the characters and added to the show's overall style and charisma. Magnum's Ferrari, in particular, remains an iconic symbol of the series and its laid-back, adventure-filled Hawaiian setting.
