"Your legacy. Every time you lose - you damage yourself. I'm sorry. Your racing days... are coming to an end.""
—'Sterling' and Lightning McQueen, a Cars 3 trailer, [[{{{3}}}]]


Sterling is the secondary antagonist of Cars 3.

He is a billionaire businesscar who purchased Rust-eze, after founders Rusty and Dusty Rust-eze put the company up for sale in order to build the Rust-eze Racing Center, an elite training facility with the latest technology. It appears that he also intends to run Rust-eze out of a personal office at the Racing Center. Sterling made his fortune as the 'mudflap king' of the eastern seaboard. While Lightning McQueen didn't know of him, Tow Mater did, stating that he does "make a quality mudflap at an affordable price."

Sterling proclaims himself to be a big fan of McQueen and is very knowledgeable of his racing career, including that of the racing career of McQueen's mentor, Doc Hudson.

He is a sports car with a silver coat of paint. He is described as "laid back" and "unassuming", though he takes business seriously,[1] and doesn't say things that are "not charming".[2].

He is a Revere Motors Model AG, a car based on the BMW 2000CS. His characteristics can be almost identical to Lots-o-Huggin Bear.

History

In Cars 3, Sterling brings up the subject of McQueen's retirement while introducing McQueen to a selection of merchandise based on him. He agrees to a deal with McQueen; if he cannot win the Florida 500, then Lightning will have to retire and use his fame to sell Lightning McQueen merchandise. At the Rust-eze Racing Center, McQueen is introduced to Cruz Ramirez, who helps him train to defeat Jackson Storm in the Florida 500. Tex Dinoco, however, offered him "a talk like a billionaire with billionare", in which Tex Dinoco got Rust-Eze under his control. It is unknown what happened to Sterling after that.

Sterling often waves off formalities, choosing to be called "Sterling" over "Sir" or "Mister." Although he's not cutthroat or power-hungry, his decisions will always be driven by what is best for his business. Sterling has invested a lot of money in Lightning McQueen, and he wants to make sure his investment pays off."[3]
