z31 in a movie!! i think

so, I'm watching Hunted, that one movie with tommy lee jones an some other guy, and there was this scene in the city where they're in a car chase and the one guy slams into a bunch of cars, and what is one of those cars? an 84 or 85 300zx!!!!!!! boo!, well, im pretty sure it was a z31, anyone else see that movie? so umm, yeah, anyways, just thought I'd share that with you all since i have nothing better to do at almost 1 in the morning does anyone else know if theres a 300zx in there that gets hit? i could be totally wrong, school has fried my brain all this week

Oh wow, that is some great stuff! I've always been looking to find Z's in movies, and I have never been very successful at it. I was definitely hoping beyond all hopes to see a Z in either of the Fast and the Furious movies, but the closest they came was a DRAWING of a Z33...

However, I did see a very cool car chase on TV between a Z31 and the police! On none other than one of those totally awesome America's Craziest Police Chases or whatever. It was a black '87-'89 Z like mine, and the cops just COULD NOT catch it even with all that horsepower under the hood of their modified Caprices and with all their special training! If not for that police department's helicopter keeping track of the vehicle, it could have easily eluded them. Still, in the end, the only way they could catch the Z was to throw a spike strip further down the road and blow out it's tires. Thank goodness the Chicago police department here doesn't have a helicopter unit!

P.S. If anyone has a digital copy of that police chase, please please please let me know!!!

Yeah, we know exactly what you're talking about! And you actually got the color of the Z in "A Walk to Remember" correct...it's a bluish-grey color (kinda like ZCarNinja's Z!) and not white. I'm surprise he didn't recognize his own car in the movie...which doesn't make him sad at all.

If you guys find any other movies with Z's in them, please let me know!

I seem to remember one MAGNUM PI where the dude was out on his regular car, and he drove an 86? 87? white turbo z.

I think I saw that one! I think the guy caught up to a traffic jam and rear ended some car, then jumped out and started running!

Okay, okay, Zcarninja...we believe you! Of course it's white! Pssssssh, I don't know what I was thinking...

In any case, it's a Z and we all love the car right? (Especially with a fine girl inside/on top of/next to it...if you haven't seen the movie before, go check it out! It wasn't TOO bad, particularly if you want to check out a Z31 in a movie or if you like Mandy Moore)
