In the movie the big hit isn't their a red camaro or something that gets driven off a gorge? Cause that was filmed by my house, people were telling me that its a camaro down in the gorge from the movie the big hit.

I really want to see that movie...

I have the movie coming from Netflix. I should have it this weekend.
It's been too cold here to go check out anything. I will find out after the thaw.

Also in gone in "60 second 2" theres a couple of maros chasing the slicer, even thought it's an unfinshed movie only 30 minutes long gotta pay hommage to the "car crash king" H.B. Halicki

Anyone see the new 'AOL 9.0 Optimized' commercial? If you look closely at the part of the commercial when a car ramps up a bunch of other cars and explodes, yeah, it's an early 80's ThirdGen Camaro...

I just watched 'Alphabet City' again (the one with the 83 Daytona Pace Car). The TA is in every other scene. It's like a character in the movie (like Smokey & the Bandit). A must see - for the car scenes only.
In fact, the car has more presence than most of the actors...Actually, that's not fair (to the car). It has more presence than ALL of the actors...COMBINED!
It's on DVD. Pick up a copy, check out the car - and laugh at how stupid we all looked in the 80s.

Yes yes, this topic has been done to death. Personally the Red Trans Am Eric La Salle drove in Comming to America was one of my favorite thirdgens in movies. Got to love that soul glo, hehe.

Still beating it to death...
In 'Crossroads' (the one with Ralph Macciho, not Britney Spears), Scratch's (the devil) henchman drives up in an 85 Trans Am (black with gold) just before Scratch appears and offers the duel with Jack Butler (Steve Vai).
This thread has gone on so long, I may have already posted this one - but don't feel like going back to check.

Man, I thought I was the only one that saw that movie too, I was going to mention that one, but I didn't know the name of that movie. I'm going to hurt the next person that mentions Knight rider.

There was some show on TV with a guy called michael knight. That had a trans-am in it.
On King of the Hill, I see a red Camaro drawn into the parking lot for Strickland Propane once in a while.

Batman had a really nice white (silver?) '70-73 Trans Am near the end of the movie. You can see it parked on the side of the street when the plane gets shot down.

Two small Camaro parts I saw recently. One driving through a snowstorm on a TV in Day After Tomorrow, and a teal one in the traffic accidents scene in The Core.

i bet that almost al of the ones you see just sitting in lots and stuff in movies are probably just one of teh crew members cars
they need cars to fill spots, so they just set them there
would be kinda cool to get your car in a movie that way
i would almost garuntee the one in sinfield is that way
its still kool to see tehm in movies
and people need ot read the thread before they post where they saw a car in a movie, most of them get mentioned 5 or more times
ohwell
and they do need to quit wrecking them on tv and in movies (fear factor is the worst)

That red 82 or 83 Z28 he drove was a targa top conversion.....most likely a t-top car with the bar cut out.
I used to watch Simon & Simon and Magnum P.I. on Thursday night just to see the Ferrarri 308 and the Camaro Z28!
