Deadline Auto Theft movie
This may belong in the lounge, I dunno.
Last night I was watching a horrendous B movie on Speed TV...Deadline Auto Theft was the title I think. It was one of those 'Halicki' movies (the guy that did the original Gone In 60 Seconds)
So it has this epic car chase scene and they roll thru a Mazda dealership (this is an early '70's flick) So the showroom is full of cool early RX cars and some rotor shaped signs etc.
It made the hours I wasted watching this trash all worth it;-)

The early Mazdas highlighted the fact that the film was produced in 1983, but used parts of others from 1982 (Junkman) and 1974 (Gone in 60 Seconds). I watched it solely for the Bricklin chase, but the movie wasn't nearly as bad as I was expecting... Hoyt Axton gave a decent performance, and there were a few interesting differences from your typical B movie chase scenes. Give Toby some credit for the effort: writer/director/producer/star.

You might be able to find it at Walmart or somewhere similar. Otherwise, you can order it on line. I think the first link below is Denice Halicki's official site and sells special editions, box set remasters, etc.
