Just noticed a blue FB in "Super Mario Bros.: The Movie" just before the chick Daisy gets dropped off at the church.

Hard to get confermation though because it's VHS and very blurry.

There's a yellow (I think?) FD in Clueless, during the Dion driving scene on the freeway. It's way back in traffic and a little hard to spot, but if you have a big enough TV you can see it well enough.

Seems to be a lot of rx-7s caught on cops. haha I recall one cops episode where a red car(if remember correctly) was speeding down a highway and went to go around some cars, the back end slid out and end up clipping the front of a dark red second gen! It clipped the passenger front and destroyed it!! The helicopter was circling around the stopped car while the cops were going to grab the person and you could clearly see the poor screwed up second gen right behind it.

I was watching this the other night... I saw a 2nd gen (stock, silver, Series 4 I think) and then in the same scene - another silver 1st gen! The 1st gen had that stepped blinds plastic thing on the back window you used to see on cars alot in the 80s.

I made my friend rewind it and pause it a few times to get a good look.

Are these cars coming from a "traffic stock" of some kind that Hollywood movies use? You seem to see alot of RX-7s in movies - certainly more than I see on the road.
