<P> In order to preserve the "language barrier" gags between Guido and the other characters in the Italian dub, his lines (and the other cars' lines in Italian) have been rendered with the Emiliano - Romagnolo accent spoken in the town of Modena, Italy, home of the Ferrari car manufacturer and racing team . Alex Zanardi, an Italian race driver who is a native of Bologna, the largest city in the Emilia - Romagna region (and thus presumably familiar with that dialect), voiced Guido for the Italian version . Coincidentally, or as a pun by the authors, the name "Guido" is a perfect homonym for the Italian inflected verb meaning "I drive". </P> <P> In Cars 2, Guido serves the same purpose he served in the first film's climax in Lightning's pit crew throughout the film . He also removed all tires from some of the Lemons when the malicious cars surrounded Lightning and Mater, but is unable to remove the bomb from Mater's nose (engine). Guido does not believe Mater when he says he has a date ("Non ci credo"), but has a jaw - dropping moment when he sees that Mater was telling the truth about his new girlfriend Holley Shiftwell (Guido believe you now! - Luigi). </P> <P> Ramone (voiced by Cheech Marin) is a 1959 Chevrolet Impala Lowrider that owns the Ramone's House of Body Art store, where he paints himself and other cars, including Lightning McQueen later in the film . His garage employs the distinctive architecture of the Tower Station (U-Drop Inn) in Shamrock, Texas . His license plate reads "L0WNSL0", which is a reference to his catchphrase, "Low and slow ." He is married to Flo, whose restaurant is next door to his store . Ramone is usually depicted as purple with a yellow and orange flame job, but throughout the film, he changes his paint job every morning (green, yellow, red in the first film, blue in Mater and the Ghostlight) to keep his skills sharp, owing to a lack of customers . This situation changes after Radiator Springs becomes vibrant again . He also likes to drive slow and very low on the road, and is overjoyed when the road is asphalted, enjoying the smoothness of the road . </P> <P> In a deleted scene that told the story of how Ramone and Flo fell in love, the only customer Ramone has refused to paint was his future wife Flo . When she asked him, "Whassamatta, you too good to paint me?" he promptly and smoothly replies, "No baby, you too good for me to paint," and saying that he could not touch a classic like Flo, which made her heart melt . The story took place in Radiator Springs in 1974 . This part was shown in the info on Ramone in Cars Mater - National Championship . </P>
