Also-Ran Movie Cars

Kent's Citroen from Real Genius, before being reassembled in his room:

Lumberg's Porsche:

I remember when Ford showed that truck in their TV ads.

And you lot are slipping, we are talking 'also ran' cars not the fancy schmancy stuff. How could y'all NOT even give a thought to the Mini in 'Bourne Identity'?

The Ford Sierra (Merkur XR4Ti over here) that he steals in the same movie:

The VW Polo that gets squished between the Volga and the G Wagen in 'Bourne Supremacy:

Or the LTD in the 'meow' scene in Super Troopers:

Not the same car, the closest I could find.

I came here to post this, but I had complete faith that some other nutcase on here would. I want to build a replica of this truck.

What about the Stingray from the short lived tv show of the same name?

Also from Corvette Summer:
Vanessa

And, don't forget the lowriders:

How about The Duke's Caddy from "Escape From New York"?

The Citroen SM in the first The Longest Yard. Burt Reynolds chase scene. Now that we have one of these for Lemons I've found all uses of the SM...this is basically it!

YES!!! DUKE OF NEW YORK! A NUMBER ONE!

I also would like a replica of this. For LeMons.

DEM CHANDELIERS THO

The van from "Old School."

Sully's Porsche from Commando would also be cool.

"What happened to Sully?"

"I let him go."

Also, after he trashes it, and Ahhhhhhnold flips it back over and the side is all crumpled up, watch the very next scene when he drives away.

*no idea WTF Trendy Shizzle is, but you get the point.

Point Break

Damone's Gremlin from Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

What about the very big truck from movie men also?

The Rambler wagon from "Mystery Men."

That's cool, I never knew that. Of course, the Formula hood was the best part.

Ponch had a '55 Chevy too.

Hunter's Dodge Monaco.

Sticking with the "CHiPs" theme, Jon Baker's Mini.

Nick Nolte's Cadillac from 48 Hrs.

And the replica Speedster Eddie Murphy had in the garage:

Cop/buddy movies had lots of them...Eddie Murphy's Nova in Beverly Hills Cop. The rather ill-cast GMC pickup from Lethal Weapon.

1959 Corvette in True Lies ("The Vette gets them wet!").

Jon's Mini in Chips only appeared in one or two episodes as I recall. It was silently replaced with this GMC pickup in all subsequent episodes.

This truck reminded me of James Garner's pickup from the Rockford Files. Though it was depicted as being his father's truck in the series I believe it was actually Garner's personal vehicle. I remember reading something to that effect in a Parade or Reader's Digest interview with Garner.
