Re: spotted in movie

One of the members here helped in that movie actually, and if I remember right it was his SVX.

Im sure someone will be along with who it was, my memory no longer serves me like in my younger years

Re: spotted in movie

I believe you see a parked SVX in the movie Metro, which was a cop movie with Eddie Murphy set in San Fransisco. It appears after the big chase and is there for all of a second.

SVXhunter is his name, I don't think he comes here too often anymore. Yes it was his car, but it wasn't damaged in the making of the movie.

He had a spare fender that he hung over the undamaged fender and propped the hood up.

Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5lSu6GkC2k

Didn't expect to see it, really but wow it's obvious.

Oh and I almost forgot, the movie looks awful, lol

Sadly, I did watch it just to see the SVX part

IMO, it was a bit too sappy and Kirk Cameron is more of a hardcore-Christian's actor... I was hoping for a bit more action since he's a firefighter. I give it a star and a half..

At any rate, postcount 1UP!

Re: spotted in movie

[slightly off-topic]

I happened upon the black SVX "Seinfeld" episode for the first time while channel-surfing recently and wondered, whose car is that? Does anyone know if that car is still around?

Re: spotted in movie

I just spotted a White XT Coupe in the X-Files episode, Patient X.
As Mulder walks up past the abandoned cars on Skyline Mountain there is a White XT to his left with the door ajar!
Cool!
