12. Cars Of Future Past - X-Men: First Class

First Class might be good at offering a slightly alternative take on our own 20th Century history, but it is laughably full of anachronisms, including a pillow design that wasn't invented for 40 years (seriously, someone found that) and a picture of Einstein that wasn't taken until 5 years after the supposed setting of the film.

Plus when Oliver Platt's doomed agent introduces Xavier to the secret CIA facility, he drives the Professor there in a Cadillac which wouldn't be released for another 10 years after the film's 1962 setting.
