The Distracting Background Cars in Media Thread

[MedigoFlame]

I remember sitting in the theater and having my sense of disbelief shattered as Tom Cruise and other bystanders walked up to the pod surrounded completely by mid-90's to 00's Mazdas. In the action sequence that follows, it's mixed up again... but that gaffe ruined the suspenseful build-up to the first tripod attack for me.

May be a bit biased...but I'm VERY distracted by that Glacier Silver Mazda6 wagon in the background. Looks just like mine.

Also in Pacific Rim's Tokyoronto: Nissan Figaro (and two Cressidas doing a credible job of acting as Mark II taxicabs in the background )

And of course the ill fated Volkswagens of Junko Miyaji

Although I don't watch GTO, that just reminded me of vice-principal Uchiyamada's prized Toyota Cresta, which always gets totaled one way or another

The Smart looks more like the CrossBlade given that small windscreen

I saw it long time ago and the cars were the first thing i noticed.
My friend who loves anime called me a freak for being able to know what car it is with in 3seconds

I know the feeling, my friends call me the car encyclopedia for when I always tell them about a car they don't know. (my car friends that is, my previous high school friends would just consider me a car nerd)

Feels like forever since I last saw Robocop, so I decided to watch it again. And noticed this Celica.

Last of the RWD gen.

And a Merkur

Edit...I remember watching Office Space and seeing this RX-7.

I remember watching that movie. It was somehow left there on the memory card by the previous owner of my PSP when I got it.

 

[ilikewaffles11]

So I just had the TV on, not paying attention or anything, and I glance up to see this... I see you hiding there. Not sure if AE86 or just an SR5...

Lmfao.. Nice catch.

Dexter, E36 E46 inconsistency. I knew deb had bought an E46 in that show, and then when I saw "her" car wrecked, I paused for a moment wondering if the show was really honestly going to try to pass off that wrecked E36 as her car... yup.

She had a green E36 convertible before stepping up to the E46.
