July 11, 200222 yr comment_10356 I think there is a 280 in a movie called something summer or summer something. It's about a highschool kid that makes a hot rod corvette in shop class I think it was gold. And it gets stolen. So he goes on and adventure to find his car in Las Vegas where someone saw it. But it ends up being a hot rod 280z. Still can't remember the name of the movie. "Corvette Summer" I believe. Starring Mark Hamil (sp) AKA "Luke Skywalker."P.S. That was one of the ugliest Corvettes I've ever seen. :sick: Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/2182-240z-in-movies/?&page=2#findComment-10356 Share on other sites More sharing options...

July 15, 200222 yr comment_10567 In Speed Starring Keanu Reaves and Sandra Bullock there's 2 Z's a 240z and a 280zx.The 240z is seen around the start of the movie when there's lots of highway action and keanu first get's on the bus. The 280zx is on a tow truck and the bus actually knocks it off and over the truck and it smashes hard on the ground shame really as it was in good condition and would have bent the chassis like a banana.Gav, Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/2182-240z-in-movies/?&page=2#findComment-10567 Share on other sites More sharing options...

July 20, 200222 yr comment_10966 I forget which Corey, and which flick.. i think it was "License to Drive" - Corey Feldmans(?) "mum" drove a 240.. A sweet silver one and his Dad says "Are you still driving this japanese piece of crap?" and then she realises she left the iron on and absolutely fangs all the way home! Thats all I can remember, but its stuck in my mind since I was a kid!!

July 20, 200222 yr comment_10977 I saw one in "Commando" with Arnold. It's the scene where that yellow Porche drives into the Galleria mall parking lot. When he gets it parked there is a red 240 that drives by.

July 21, 200222 yr comment_11020 I remember the 280ZX in Fast Times at Ridgemont High. The sleazy electronics salesman who takes Jennifer Jason Leigh out for a "date". It's that copper color if I recall it correctly. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/2182-240z-in-movies/?&page=2#findComment-11020 Share on other sites More sharing options...
