I think you’d enjoy Layer Cake. The protagonist (only known as XXXX) makes preparations to exit the drug trade because he believes in having a plan and sticking to it…quitting while you’re still ahead, not getting too greedy, that sort of stuff. Unfortunately, chaos ensues. His boss, clueless gangsters, Serbian war criminals, etc. all factor into him not enjoying his early retirement just yet.

I think Eleanor from (the original) Gone in 60 Seconds is iconic because it was actually part of the plot. Of all the cars they had to steal, that one gave Pace and his crew the most trouble.

Pace tried to steal it at the airport but a woman was sleeping in it, he stole it but returned it at his gf’s insistence because it was uninsured, stole another and then it got smashed up during the lengthy car chase, and by pure chance Pace found a fresh one rolling out of a car wash which allowed him to finally finish the job once and for all.
