I've got the super unknown 1st gen spot in a movie. Its in "Twins" with danny devito and AHHHHHHNOLD. When Devito goes to the chop shop near the beginning of the movie and he's talking to his contact, right next to the fence is an fb. Sorry to thread hijack but I didn't think it was worth a whole new thread, so I waited until another inevitable 1st gen on tv thread started.
Respekt

if you can't link to a thread that mentions Twins I will be declared winner and you must bow unto me as the superior shitty early 90's movie watching loser.

In Pulp Fiction during the scene with the NSX you can see one in the background on a trailer.

That link just took all the fun outta these threads

In Commando in the garage scene where Arnold rips the seat out of the little red car there are two 1st gens in the parking garage. I love looking for rx7s in older movies

Nice job Sun Red, facts are always more fun than gossip. But I don't see our Jeffrey's movie listed in there.

Dan_s_young 09-20-07 08:52 PM

In a episode of the comedy series Reno 911 there is a FB in the background.

DloveN 09-20-07 08:54 PM

I just watched an old movie called vanishings or something. There was a white fb driving in a parking lot in it.

steve84GS TII 09-20-07 09:37 PM

There was also an old episode of COPS with John Walsh, were they were either driving or chasing a white FB.....cant rememeber which,but it was very prominent.

And of course the FB in DieHard,I think it was an SE....
And what was that movie where the nurse is murdered in the parking lot near a 1st gen?......Striking Distance, I think?.......

sa7 09-20-07 10:21 PM

There is a first and a second gen in the movie The Italian Job, I can't remember which model and color though, I haven't seen the movie in a while.

turboIIrotary 09-20-07 10:28 PM

i saw that same one it was when they were talking about cops and it was about some people fighting each other with food or something like that i think i dunno it was like 4 in the morning and all i remember was a ugly colored first gen showed up in the backround of the screen

jshiz 09-20-07 10:32 PM

I was watching 3 strike and when the guy is running from the cops, he runs past a red frist gen.

Morey987 09-21-07 03:38 AM

That episode of COPS when they were chasing that brown first gen was hillarious. The host kept talking it up. Saying how it was 240 horsepower if I remember right. WE WISH. Even at 100 it was still walking away from those cruisers.

Pronkie 09-21-07 08:58 PM

There was a movie with Paul Newman as a protective father/friend and Sally Fields plays a newspaper reporter....She drives a silver RX-7 GSL in it...Forgot the name of the movie.....
