This was so cool I had to have it. 1958 Belvedere, looks like the Christine movie car.

except Christine was a Fury!

In the movie, they used Fury, belvederes and savoys...so you are both right.

Some additional info on Christine:

In the book Mr. King makes several references to the 1958 Plymouth Fury that were not accurate. We have come up with some errors about the 1958 Fury that appear in the book:

Book: Christine is referred to as a four door.
Fact: The 1956-58 Furys only came in a two-door hardtop. It was not until 1959 you could get a four door Fury. Book: Christine is red and white.
Fact: The 1958 Fury only came in buckskin beige with gold trim. The 1958 Belvedere, the next model down, was available in toreador red and iceberg white, with silver trim. However, it is mentioned that she was a special order.
Book: The transmission is called hydramatic.
Fact: That was a GM transmission, Plymouth had the TorqueFlite (http://www.allpar.com/mopar/torqueflite.html).
Book: One line says, "I saw Christine's transmission lever suddenly drop into drive."
Fact: The 1958 Plymouths had push button drive.
Richard Henley added: In the book, a rented honey dipper truck is used in the final showdown; in the movie, it’s a bulldozer. In the book, Dennis drives a Plymouth Duster; in the movie, a Charger

These are just a few errors we mention that are found inside the book. If you have a copy of the first issue hard cover with the dust jacket, you will find a picture of Mr. King sitting on the hood of a 1957 Plymouth (http://www.allpar.com/history/chrysler-years/1957.html), not a 1958.
In an interview Mr. King was asked, why all the errors? His response was that he wrote the middle first, then a few years later wrote the beginning and end. He needed to come up with a car brand name and found Fury the most fitting. Webster defines Fury as "Violent, intense anger." Need we say more?

Very nice, have not seen that one yet

One of those has been hanging at the local Target for about 2 weeks. I went to buy it today and it was gone. :(

I'm hoping to find that one soon.
Johnny Lightning is the only company to do an OFFICIAL Christine in 1:64 scale, and it was pretty bad:

Ertl/RC did a very nice red Belvedere a few years ago:

And, finally, you can find a red '57 Plymouth FURY as part of
Hot Wheels' Treasure Hunts:
