:stupid:

but the fact remains that it was a 69 camaro that got wrecked. one less camaro is a bad thing. Too bad they didnt have the mail order 69 bodies at the time of the movie, then it wouldn't have been as tragic.

actually the mail order bodies have been around for over 5 years.. my boss who owns 3 69's showed me the info on them back when i was working as a mechanic in 2000, now that the price for real ones has went up, even those have more than doubled in cost...it mave have been a repro

the wraith was a great movie. the "turbo interceptor" was actually a dressed up doge daytona concept car.
two lane blacktop is one of the all time great car movies. not a lot of big plot twists or anything, jsut a movie about cars.
dirty mary, crazy larry was a classic police chase movie. other than the ending it is a great movie.
american grafitti prolly has more cool cars in it that any movie ever. the scenes when they are cruising through town you can see all sorts of sick cars.
the original gone is 60seconds is so much different than the remake that i don't know why they bothered to use the same name. i love the first one, great chase scenes.
bullit has the longest car chase in movie history, can't beat that.
movies like winning, formula1, le mans, and on any sunday are classics that often get forgotten too.

actually it was not really a dressed up daytona, daytonas were FWD, and the PPG/chrysler interceptor was midengine, most parts were common to the daytona and dodge vehicles of the era but the "wraith" more designed to be a supercar,unlike the daytonas... heres some quick info

"The 'Turbo Interceptor'
1984 Dodge-PPG Twin Turbo M4S Prototype


This vehicle should have top billing over Charlie Sheen in the film (it was in the movie for about twice as many scenes as Charlie Sheen!). This car is known as 'The Wraith' or 'Turbo Interceptor' in the film. The vehicle was originally a pace car developed by Chrysler and PPG in 1984. Over 30 cars were constructed for the film for various stunts and crash sequences. The beauty version of the car featured a $30,000 paint job. The M4S was a slippery teardrop sports car design that was seriously considered for production. However, Dodge did not produce it because of high manufacturing costs (the marketing people in 1984 saw no market for a high-performance Dodge sports car for about $50,000 -- although the Viper proved otherwise).

The vehicle was track tested and achieved a top speed of 194.8 miles per hour. The car's drivetrain utilized a 5 speed manual transmission out of the '85 Dodge Turbo Daytona. The engine was a stock block, the durable 2.2 liter Inline four used in other Dodge offerings like the Dodge Daytona and Aries. This engine made 400 horsepower thanks to twin Garrett T25 turbos, a twincam Cosworth 16-valve cylinder head and Bosch L-Jettronic fuel injection (this research was later used to developed the 2.2 liter Turbo 4 used in the Iroc Daytona and Spirit R/T). Under normal driving conditions, this engine combination averaged around 27 mpg in the city and over 30 at highway speeds (mileage dropped to around 23 mpg past 150 mph).
Other Notable features on this car are Gullwing doors and its clam shell hood. The really nice part, this vehicle featured a mid-engine layout (very unique for a Mopar). Actually, the Dodge Designation M4S stands for Mid-engine 4 Cylinder Sport. The car also featured a perfect 50/50 weight distribution between its front wheels and rear wheels. It rolled on 15 inch aluminum wheels (depicted with a gold tint in the film). These same wheels soon became optional on Daytona, Acclaims and Chrysler minivans."


:-D can you guess what one of my favorite movies is...lol

damn, how the hell did this thread get to 3 pages and no one mentions Vanishing Point? one of THE best car chase movies of all time with one of the baddest cars of all time, a 1970 Dodge Challenger with a Hemi. the whole movie is a big car chase. and did anyone ever see the audioslave video for show me how to live where they cgi'd themselves into the movie? its simply the baddest music video of all time hands down.
also all the batmobiles are pretty kick ass especially the last one.

turbo96z28 01-23-2006 09:22 PM
