I’m over 30 and was only vaguely aware of it because it was mentioned once in a youtube video.

I feel like not many people under the age of 30 will get this. I think I may have even forgotten to force my own kids to watch it.

I’m in my early 20s and I have this super vague memory of a beetle car being sentient. The only scene I remember is it spraying oil cus it didn’t like someone or something like that
Am I thinking of the right movie

Most likely you are, but there were like 4 original movies, and then Lindsay Lohan did a remake around 2005 that i forgot existed, so you might be thinking of that one.
Just researched it up. The first Herbie movie (which was a huge hit and awesome) came out in 1968. Then there were like 3 more up to 1980, then a bad made for TV movie in 1997, and the Lohans pretty bad one in 2005.

I don’t know much about it anymore, but I remember some shady guys with a giant gold disk. Maybe it was a follow-up of the original.

Drag saw Herbie and didn’t like it. Brum has much more character.
