koreavet Posted October 17, 2003 Share #49 Posted October 17, 2003 What about that movie "One on One" with Robbie Benson. He gets a brand new 280Z, drives it to California, and lets it overheat. A scene shows steam pouring out of the engine compartment with the Robbie Benson character wondering what to do. I wonder if the movie producers really drained some of the coolant, and forced the car to overheat? Probably warping the head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bambikiller240 Posted October 17, 2003 Share #50 Posted October 17, 2003 Originally posted by 240Zdragon72 My point exactly.....the ZX was a 300ZX in the "Ridgemont High" movie. Maroon color, I think. The scene is at night, but damn if it wasent sweet looking. Window vents and all..... Well now, if you will remember, the Fast Times at Ridgemont High movie was released to Theaters in 1982 which means it was probably filmed in 1981 or very early 1982. The last time I checked, the 300ZX didn't come out until 1984. I rest my case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SER240Z Posted October 17, 2003 Share #52 Posted October 17, 2003 Kind of off the subject, but Jones Soda Company bottle labels use customer pictures and they had a short run of a lemonade that had the rear pillar vent of a 72-73 240 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An easy error to make as it was't on the screen for very long, and as you stated it was a night scene.:classic: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCLarry Posted October 20, 2003 Share #59 Posted October 20, 2003 Was just watching my Tivo'd '9 1/2 Weeks'. In the opening scene, a 280zx is seen driving behind Kim Basinger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abas Posted October 20, 2003 Share #60 Posted October 20, 2003 OK, not in a film as such but I did see some TV footage a few years back showing someone stealing a tank from the US army and driving it around squashing cars and things. There was a shot of a z (can't tell which) which had been squashed from front to rear. It looked about 2 feet high !!!! Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
