Although it debuted with weekend ticket sales weaker than those of its recent Pixar brethern, Cars outperformed The Incredibles, regarding first Monday and Tuesday numbers. The Internet Movie Database indicates that Cars gathered $6,445,000 on Monday, compared to the $3,802,000 that The Incredibles brought in on its first Monday. On Tuesday, Cars collected 5,820,000 versus $3,213,000 for the first Tuesday of The Incredibles. Should the trend continue, analysts expect Cars to outgross its superhero predecessor by this weekend, in terms of first-week sales.
