Aren’t these Phantom of the Opera characters? Oh, no, those are Carlotta and Raoul 
I wonder if it has any connection. 
I doubt it. It was just a very silly joke written under the influence of… being tired.
A very good one nonetheless! 
Just to get some discussion going, lets ask some questions:
Your Favorite Character, Personality Wise?
Your Favorite Character, Aesthetically?
Your Favorite Location?
Your Favorite Theory about the movie? (Like Mater X Holly and stuff)
My favorite character, personality wise (from what I’ve seen), would be Carla.
My favorite character, aesthetically, is definitely Holley. I personally think she’s prettier than Sally.
My favorite location, can’t really say yet.
My favorite theory? I love the HolleyxMater pairing. I think it’s a cute couple. In fact, I think it’s beautiful that she [spoil]falls in love with his humor instead of his looks[/spoil].
Favorite character:Sally,I really don’t care about the other new characters yet…
maybe Carla,she looks fun…
Look above…and Holley I think she would be an interesting character,but I can’t betray Sally like that so yeah…
P.S: I think both girls are equally beautiful 
It would be fun if they became friends… 
locations:Toyko absolutely
Theory? I dunno I need more info…maybe MaterxHolley…
[EDIT]No scratch that…Lightning and Mater’s friendship for theory…
Your Favorite Character, Personality Wise? No clue.
Your Favorite Character, Aesthetically? I like Finn and Holley’s designs.
Your Favorite Location? Japan. <3
Your Favorite Theory about the movie? I haven’t been reading much about Cars 2, so I don’t really know.
I’m really impressed with the amount of diversity in Car 2’s cast. Cars has to be one of Pixar’s most inclusive and progressive film, and its sequel really takes it to the next level! I wonder whether the cars in Cars have a concept of ethnicity/race… like, Ramone is Latino, but his model is American…
And what about parallel, or captive imports? Would a Holden, Opel, and Vauxhall Astras be long-lost Australian, American, and British cousins, respectively? How about company mergers or rebrands? Would a Proton Saga be a Malaysian, or a Japanese-Malaysian (since it is a rebranded Mitsubishi Lancer)? Would a Lotus Elise hail from Malaysia? Would a Ford Falcon be born Down Under? Don’t get me started on Humvees, who should be eating Chinese dumplings and egg noodles now…
Sorry, I’m a massive gearhead. But if you understood what I just said, welcome to the club! Now we can pontificate about the world of Cars in a real-world setting… 
Back on topic, I’m really pleased to see Carla and Raoul. I’m not sure what model Carla is, but she’s lovely, and boy can she shake that spoiler! (Is it me, or are there a lot of Latin-American themed animated films this year?)
Raoul is obviously a Fiat Punto. I love how they use actual (or inspired) models from real-life. And he’s a rally car!
thedriveintheatherI just wish they had more African-American characters… 
Great find, SoA! Are they like Le Mans cars or something?
xCarsLuverx: If you mean Pixar in general, they have Frozone and AJ (from Up). If you mean Cars, Flo is obviously African-American - Her backstory on the Deleted Scenes reveals she’s a Motown showgirl, and she’s voiced by Jenifer Lewis… of Mama Odie fame!
I remember seeing a Cars humanization piece of Ramone and Flo, and I remembered being annoyed that the artist drew Flo as a Caucasian (Hello? Isn’t her accent obvious?).
Yeah,but I mean as a main character…
One day, I suppose…
I just thought of something you know what this Sally-Holley comparison stuff reminds me of…Jessica Rabbit vs.Holly Would…
My favorite character, personality wise: I like Carla, she seems so bubbly and fun
My favorite character, aesthetically: Holley
My favorite location: France. I’m a bit biased because I’m French-American. And Italy too, and UK, because I’ve been there
My favorite theory? The only one I can think of is HolleyxMater
So how about that Professor Zundapp?
It seems like everyone is quite curious about that nut.
Do you think he’ll be pretty evil? He gives me a little sick feeling inside. That only happens when I see characters like Lotso.
Cue Vampire laugh Mu-hu-ha-ha-ha!!! 
Your Favorite Character, Personality Wise?
Toss-up between Finn McMissile and Holly Goodshift.
Your Favorite Character, Aesthetically?
Carla. Or Sally (I still like her from the first movie).
Your Favorite Location?
Paris and London, because I’ve been to both locations and want to see how they ‘satirise’ them.
Your Favorite Theory about the movie? (Like Mater X Holly and stuff)
Mater and Holly will have a love-hate relationship much like Maxwell Smart and Agent 99. Whether that will be resolved, remains up in the air.
Professor Zundapp might be a similar villain to the one in ‘The World Is Not Enough’. Think about it. What is the most important resource in the Cars world? Oil. Control the oil supplies, and you rule the world.
I think Finn might be a ‘Lotso’/Waternoose/Charles Muntz. Then again, maybe he’s just a simple mentor for Mater.
Mater will have a row with Lightning, and maybe set out to prove he is competent and not a simpleton, eventually learning that he has his own strengths, Po the panda-style.
Luigi’s family will love Lamborghinis. XD
Holley Goodshift? It’s Holley Shiftwell…
