To be honest, hes in the stunt show for seconds.
Every year they have gradually removed parts of the stunt show. When we watch it, we wonder what has been taken out now....
Maybe Herbie will come back as he was replaced by Lightning McQueen?

Quite. That show badly needs replacing. Removing parts only lessens the re-watch value and it isn't the show it once was.

Yup. Bring back Herbie...the stunts and falls from the roof ....the jet skis.....the car battle in front of the audience....the actors in the crowd.  We don't go anymore as it sooo poor in comparison.

The last thing Disneyland Paris needs is less shows. They need to keep the stunt show.

A massive rethink is well overdue. If they can't fix it then there has to be a complete replacement.

They can fix it, by bringing back Herbie.

As much as I love the bug I think that more needs to be done to restore some glory to the show.

The problem is that none of the younger audience members (even up to mid 20s now) would even recognise Herby.

Sad to say but I think that it's had its day and it's time for something new.

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually announce a plan similar to what's happening in Florida and get rid of it, along with the Studio Tram Tour.

I thought there was talk of it being turned into something marvel? Although cars 3 coming out it's possible there giving it even more of a cars presence which would sit well with young.audiences

Getting rid of another show from Disneyland Paris would be a mistake. The park needs more shows, not more rides.

I full agree it should be a new show and not a ride but I do think the the motor show has had it's day. There are numerous things they can do (even if they go down the Marvel route and do a Marvel Universe Live show similar to what has been on tour).

Marvel Universe Live looks a bit too kiddy. If it's replaced by a Marvel show, it should be an Agents of SHIELD stunt show. You could keep the car and motorbike stunts with that and mix in some SHIELD agents fighting/general people stunts.

Imagine seeing things like Lola and the Hell Charger being driven around.

I don't think Agents of Shield is popular enough tbh. People will want to see the main Marvel characters. They could do something great with Ant Man for example with an over sized set and have a really different experience.

The likes of Black Widow, Cap, Black Panther etc are all perfect for a more traditional stunt show type experience.

I don't think popularity really matters with a stunt show. People won't turn down a show that's included with admission, and it's not like the already existing stunt show has a big Disney franchise in its name. it's the 'Moteurs... Action! Stunt Show Spectacular' not 'Herbie's Stunt Show Spectacular' or 'Disney Pixar's Cars Stunt Show Spectacular'.

Just hope they flatten it like at WOW, maybe replace it and the backlog tour with a guardians of the galaxy land, no one has one yet, only refurb s of older rides. They better not touch tower of terror either, totally ruined California's,  everyone hates it and there's only Paris and Florida left.

How about a re-booted Honey I Shrunk the audience for Ant-Man?

Agree with other posts on the stunt show, it's been sadly declining over the years and really needs to be improved back to it;s former glory, especially as it's important to take a large chunk of people out of the park at one time.

DLP needs a bit more cars especially with the 3rd movie . I agree the show needs re thinking and agree its got worse as time goes on. I think it should be revamped as a Cars show.
