How about the Red 3rd gen Trans AM in "Big Trouble in Little China" The Chinese gang take off in it when they captured the girl in the airport. Then in the Deleted scenes on DVD Kurt Russell rams it into the water.

Also in Heat don't forget the early 70's Camaro that the black guys girlfriend drives. And MOST importantly how have you all missed the IROC during the shoot out seen after they rob the bank. They shot that thing to smitherins.

In Varsity Blues the scene at the party when the one dude steals the cop car, theres a quick glimse of a red trans am in the background. Looks like an 87-90 or so with the wraparound spoiler and black crosslace wheels.

Time to bring this one back to life! There was a white ThirdGen in "Short Circut" where #5 dismantles it completely. That used to be one of my fav. movies and I never realized what it was till I got my car. After seeing it that last time I wished I could have been on set to pick up a few parts...

Thank goodness they didn't trash that Formula, I was worried for a minute

On "cops" the other day, a trooper pulled over an 86-92 model mustang GT for racing a blue 85-89 IROC. The IROC got away and the cop radio'd for other officers in the area to find him (never found him) by the end of the show at least, probably too fast and got away!

In 8Mile when they leave the club and go to some parking lot late at night there's a super clean yellow IROC in the background. It sticks out like a sore thumb in the dark!

Here's a list of some...
In the first episode of Miami Vice (1984) one of the fed's drove a hot rodded '83-'84 Berlinetta Camaro (white with blue) Crokett jumped in it to chase a boat and it was a pretty wild chase scene.
Also in the first episode Tubb's drove a 1982-1983 black and gold Trans Am to tail a suspect to the beach. (Looked like it had Recaro seats with the netting).
Terminator had an '84 Trans Am in the background
Smokey and the Bandit 3 has a black and gold '82 T/A.
Cop Land with Sly Stalone, one of the cops played by Ray Liota had a late 80's blue Camaro RS
Thats pretty much all that I can think of for right now... maybe more will pop into my head later

in kingpin, the hot chick beats woody up on an 82 or so bird.
in sienfeld they seem to use the same cars in outdoor/parking area scenes and for a season or two there was a new looking 'maro, either a z or an iroc.
edit: someone already mentioned the kingpin one.
edit again: there is also a really nice 'maro in one of the early scenes of City by the Sea

In "Alphabet City", Johnny (Vincent Spano) has to flee with his family. He does so in a beautiful TA - The movie was 1984 and the car looks like a 15th anniversary. It's white on the top and black on the bottom with the white "bowling ball" wheel covers. They make a dramatic unveiling of the car at the end of the movie when he's getting ready to leave. The car was also on the cover of the VHS box. They only have the DVD on Amazon and the picture is different.
A few houses away from my sister's place, a guy has the same car (faded paint, missing bowling *****) in his driveway. I've never seen the car moved and will some day venture over there and ring the doorbell to see what's what. Maybe get another one for a song. I'd bring that thing right back to life and make it look exactly like the movie car.

My 86 would have been in a movie if it wasn't down for the TPI swap.
I drove my 96 Camaro in it though.
I I had a really small part in the film, I drove by and gave the finger to the camera since I was supposedly cut off by the main characters.
I basically drove behind the truck with the camera on it for a few seconds, pulled up next to it, gave them the finger, and then took off.
here is the site for the movie, www.whatismoving.com
Film was made by one of my best friends.

There's a red Camaro in that new Best Buy commercial. Guy says something like when we were growing up, if it was cool my brother had it. Then it cuts to his brother talking about a VCR or something just outside his Camaro.

Edit: BTW if you go down and check out the car around you make sure it has RPO Y82 on the Data Plate.

I just watched this movie called Speed Demon and it had a decent camaro in it. Movie was stupid as ****, though.
