Interesting eh?

I thought I'd share this, even though it seems a little fishy. A positive feedback rating of '1' isn't really enough to convince me it's the real deal... but hey, ya never know...

It is the right car though,a '76 2+2-I just don't remember a hurst shifter being in any of the interior shots-My first Z was a car just like it-and got a cheep thrill when I saw it in the movie, and really checked it out.

Now I'll have to watch it with my daughter next week if possible. I don't remember the hurst shifter either, I thought it was an automatic? And what happened to the one they crashed at the end ? What could have been the reason for a V8 conversion anyway?

Might be worth more if they could get Jim to sign it.

...And what happened to the one they crashed at the end?

Yeah, that was the first thing that crossed my mind too. I haven't seen the movie in a while, but I seem to remember him crashing into a pole or something with his Z.

Heh, needless to say I felt a bit saddened when he traded up his Z for that McLaren F1 LM. "Whyyyy?!!"

I'm sure they had more than one copy of the same car. Thats what they did in 2 fast 2 furious.

Your saddened by him trading a z for a mclaren? Would you have kept the z over a mclaren? heck, i wouldnt either. We're talkin a Mclaren!!!!!

I thought it was a Saleen not a McLaren. Although the McLaren would have been my choice.

It was a Saleen

I would take the Saleen S7, sell it, put a down payment on a house and buy another Z.

Well... no... *guilty* :disappoin

... and yeah, I thought for sure it was a McLaren F1 LM... I remember I was playing Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 a lot at the time, and the F1 LM is one of the (many) exotics to choose from. I knew its lines quite well, and spotted it instantly. I'm 98% positive that's what it is.

I also recall a shot favoring the rear end of the car where you could distinctly read the McLaren badging, if only for a split second.

Quoted from: http://www.saleenclub.net/press.php

"Hollywood Horsepower premiered nationally on May 23 with Bruce Almighty, a Universal Pictures starring Jim Carrey as an average Joe who gets his wish when God, played by Morgan Freeman, agrees to change places with Carrey for a week to prove to Jim that being God ain’t all it’s made out to be. Two ladies co-star, Jennifer Aniston and a silver Saleen S7. Jennifer certainly has the softer curves, but the S7 is one fast lady and a real handler. Aniston is a heart breaker; The S7, what else, is the late braker. The Pope may occasionally be driven in a Ferrari, but Bruce Almighty confirms that God drives an S7!"

Found a few other links on the web that said it was a Saleen also. But like I said before, the McLaren would have been a better choice!

If you bought the car on Ebay you'd have everyone calling it "that crappy car Jim Carey drove in that movie". As much as I liked seeing a Z on the big screen, would have liked it if they used a different car
