Happened to have some free time last night so i pulled up VUDU to see what was available. Settled on 'Need for Speed' which by all accounts is pretty bad as movies go but isnt bad if you need to satisfy your craving for a 'car' flick.
So, about 20 minutes or so into the movie there's the obligatory, unsanctioned street race. Almost lost in the lineup of your traditional vintage movie muscle cars is this:

Unfortunately, the coupe doesnt make it past the first leg of the race..
There's a really bad video of the race here:

The coupe gets only a few seconds of screen time, the most notable of which occurs at 1:07 when the driver misses the train crossing. looks like a '72 sporting 18 or 19" 5 spoke wheels.
