SVX in movie "Fireproof"

I went to see Fireproof last night w/my wife and friends and there is one scene where a car w/two guys pulls up next to a car w/two girls and they are talking. The camera angle was looking through the pass side window of the girls car. As they were talking, I notice the windows on the guys car and the distinctive split window. I nudge my wife all excited and tell her "hey.. that's an SVX" Then the doffus guys tells the girl, "lets race. If you beat us we'll buy you lunch" or something stupid like that.

Car's pull away and it's a claret w/black top. They are racing two girls in a crappy econo box. We later find out it's a kia b/c they end up wrecking on some train tracks. SVX just winds up in a ditch.

anyways... I was pretty stoked about that. To bad they didn't show more.

The svx ended up in the ditch and not wrecked because the director realized the value of the svx is very high. : )

Or because the special effects man has one and offered his car up for use. And he has the extra parts and skill to make it look wrecked without damaging it...
