The intro car has become a significant meme within the Celeste community. Owing to Farewell not existing around the game's release, the intro car could only be initially found in the prologue. Because of how it is completely secret, how it wouldn't be found via typical gameplay, and because of how it is a dynamic object, bouncing a little whenever Madeline lands on it, it became disproportionately famous. Many Celeste mod developers, including ones for [[Ghostnet]], have used the intro car as a "testing object". Some content creators, including ''iamdadbod'', have made the intro car an integral part of their channel. Many [[Everest]]-compatible maps use the intro car as a secret, either hidden at the beginning of a level or stashed away quite significantly. The addition of intro cars to [[Farewell]] and Celeste spinoffs, often as a secret, is a reference to the memetic status of the vehicle.
The intro car has become such an overused gag that it has gained several nicknames, notably "Funny Car" and its abbreviated form "Funny". Often, Everest maps will use different names for the intro car to make things sound more unique: an example is "introductory vehicle". Some maps go as far as to make finding the intro car a challenge in itself; often, it is accompanied by text referencing the joke as being overly stale.
