Remember "Gone in 60 seconds" with Nicolas Cage and Giovanni Ribisi?
The one scene where "Kip Raines" is going to be crushed in the car sitting in the car crusher is a 3rd Gen Firebird.
I'm sick of the third gen being the Hollywood whipping boy. We all know dayum well that in a few years, the third gen is going to be the cool car.

"We all know dayum well that in a few years, the third gen is going to be the cool car."
so logicaly in a few years the third gen will cease to be the "hollywood whipping boy" when it is finaly cool? you do not start liking something before it is cool as a whole, it starts with a few poeple building a sort of fan base and then it grows from there. i dont want the 3rd gens to be popular. i dont care what the value of my gta is, because i dont plan to sell it. one of the only reasons i could see people wanting the values of our cars to go up is so that they can make money off them. the other being recognition that their car that they chose to become a fan of is desireable, not because they themsleves really like the car, but because they want others to admire them for something not so basic as asthetic beauty, but so much collectability. i think they will reach the status in 5 years or so too, but i dont really look forward to it, i like parts being cheap.

In "KingPin" Roy slams claudia on the hood of a black 3rd gen in the motel parking lot. Not crushing it or blowing it up but still...
Nice.
