SVX in the movies
Hallo SVX community!
on the brink of buying one myself and keeping a close eye on the car since it was launched in the early nineties I am now looking to find the name of the movies in which the car played a role. I have been told that it appeared in one of the Cannonball Run movies, and in a movie with a white detective partnering a black detective. Can you please let me know of any movie it played a role, and also any documentary or video that exist? I would very much like to start a small library: 'SVX in the movies'. The car is as special to look at as it is to drive. Thank you for your response!

The Detective Movie was a Parody staring Emilio Esteves named Loaded Weapon 1.
It was also in an episode of Seinfeld, the one where they lose their car in the parking garage at the mall, they pass it several times. Thats all that I can think of off hand, and I know this topic has come up MANY times, so you will find help.

It was not in any of the Cannonball Run movies, but is was in a detective mystery/romance made for TV movie (as well as Loaded Weapon) set somewhere in the Carribeans islands area shot in the very late 90's. Don't remember the name of that one but it wasn't a great movie anyway.

In the Sienfeld episode, a couple gets into a black SVX at around the 7:30 mark (if downloaded).
And, after further viewing, Kramer is yelling for George in front of a black SVX at the 14:57 mark. If anyone wants me to send them the episode email me: smatrixt@aol.com or IM me at the same name.

On the TV series "Early Edition" in the second(I think) season the main main guy's best friend "Chuck" has a 94 Red Anniversary Edition that he has through most of the season, in one episode the SVX gets stolen and they hunt for it through most of the episode.

I thought someone said it was Princess Vespa's spaceship in "Space Balls" by Mel Brooks.
I don't remember seeing it myself but it's been a while.

SVX in movies
There is an SVX in the movie "Falling Down" starring Robert Duval and Michael Douglas. Early in the movie Duval helps a cop push a stranded car off of the highway. Behind Duval, sitting in traffic, is an SVX with it's drivers window down.
