.... which falls into my "movie-with-a-car-that's-out-of-production" catagory. ;)

Perhaps not a big block, but how about a small block......maybe a 69 Z/28 RS with a pro-touring suspension. I don't think a worked DZ302 would have fared poorly at all against Mr. TT VQ35DE. But that's neither here or there.

I actually enjoyed the chase scene in The Marine, even if it was short, the poor Z/28 died, and it was the only bright spot in an otherwise awful movie.

A couple of nights ago I downloaded both the old and the new versions of Vanishing Point.

WE NEED MORE MOVIES LIKE THIS. Good lord. I empathized with the hero, loved all of the chase scenes, drooled over the car, and there was little to no plot at all. Now what happened to movies like this? Movies that worked without special effects, a plot with hundreds of twists, and scenes that just simply appealed to the the guy who has spent hours on Streetfire.

In terms of a movie like Bullitt or Vanishing Point for the new Camaro? I call it in as unlikely simply because the philosophy for making movies has changed.

Unfortunately for us, Michael Bay movies have won.

I have a hard time believing the Mustang could've handled like that anyway..

Challenger- Vanishing Point

Mustang- Bullitt (also w/ Charger), James Bond- Diamond are Forever

Camaro- (yep) Better off Dead... nothing else comes to mind. The Saleen Camaro looks like it is going to be pretty sweet in the Transformers...and Bumblebee is a main character!

aahhh....the good old DZ...most ppl dont know the way of the 7500rpm SBC

Re Tokyo Drift: where was he going to get a built V8 in Japan in a day? He already had the RB26DETT that was pretty stout in the Silvia he busted up... I thought it was a pretty cool solution even if it was unusual.

But if you were too disappointed, the Mustangs that did the stunts had Windsor V8s :)

Dont know if this was said but that is not a real Camaro in the Transformer movie. Saleen built it from a GTO and made it look like a Camaro. They are also talking with GM and are going to have 2 Saleen Edition Camaro's a 485hp one and a 600hp supercharged is what Steve wants to build.

It was and black suburbans have already been dispatched to Saleen. ;)

While staring at Salma Hayek in "After the Sunset" I think I noticed that Pierce Brosnan (sp?) drove a convertible '69 Camaro. Pretty sharp looking car.

A tear rolled down my cheek in F&F 2 when they blew the door off the Yenko Camaro and then jumped it onto the boat, even though I'm sure it wasn't a real Yenko.

Farve's Orange Third gen chased down the Porsche in Super Troopers.

That is all I have for now

If that woulda been a real mustang, it woulda lost big time, whats the weight difference even striped compareing that little import to the old stang? However it was a movie so we all know it was mostly fake.

OK, not a movie...but in the Metallica music video for "I disappear", there was a nice '69 Camaro in a car chase make to look like the "Bullet" chase scene. There was also one in the video for "Fuel".

fast times at ridgemont high had a camaro. don't worry dude I can fix it, my dad has an excellent set of tools.

I think that car was a 67 mabey 68 (been awhile since Ive seen those vids).

Also it is owned by one Mr. James Hetfield.:bow:

Stripes weigh what, an ounce or two? Maybe you mean stripped?

I thought i heard a rumor of a new knight rider movie with a new camaro as KITT. I also heard its gonna have david hasslehoff in it. Anyone else hear anything?
