«Cars» — серия картин американского художника Энди Уорхола, заказанная компанией Mercedes-Benz в 1986 году.
Первая картина из серии изображала купе 300SL и была создана немецким арт-дилером Хансом Мейером, чтобы отпраздновать столетие изобретения автомобиля.
Готовой работой настолько впечатлился Mercedes-Benz, что заказал Энди Уорхолу целую серию картин. Она должна была проследить эволюцию дизайна компании от Benz Patent-Motorwagen 1885, Daimler Motor Carriage (1886) и Mercedes 35 hp (1901) до Mercedes-Benz W125 и Mercedes-Benz C111.
К 1987 году, когда умер художник, были готовы 36 шелкографий и 13 рисунков восьми моделей Mercedes-Benz из планировавшихся 80 работ по мотивам 20 моделей.
Серия была основана на фотографиях автомобилей и стала первым неамериканским объектом, который Уорхол изобразил в своих работах.
