hollywood camaros

anybody else get horribly pissed off when they wreck a perfectly good camaro on tv. i just saw a commercial for fear factor where they flip a camaro. not to mention the countless movies where camaros get needlessly destroyed. why cant they do it with newer gayer cars, like kias or toyotas. we only have so many of our maros left...

I know that fear factor always uses them because a hard top 3rd gen camaro is supposed to be one of the safest cars in the world to be in in an accident

DOn't forget the commercial for taxi driver or whatever that movie was

Yeah...they wreck a nice Camaro in the movie Taxi. Just got done watching that. :wtf:

hey im living proof that a camaro is the best car to get into an accident with i think i might have some pics of the damage the accident did to me in meh gallery

yeah a few movies wreck them but think of the ones that praise them. one of the camaros i remember the most was a yellow 3rd gen in 8 mile

hate to bring up this movie....but what about 2 Fast 2 Furious?? where they have to cheat in order to beat the Yenko, and the mustang is crushed by the truck :evillol: :evillol:

Fear factor has smashed a lot of third gens and second gens.O well Now yours is worth more to a collector.I think they use them because its the cheapest car possible to add a roll cage and a hot motor to.Not to mention for all the flips and flying you need somthing not only durable but light weight.

how about the blue iroc-z in Blackdog. it was trashed.

I know its not a Camaro but Smokey and the Bandit and Knight Rider killed a lot of T/A's.

What was tha movie with Mark Wallburg i think it was called the big hit.He drove a Yellow Firebird that ended up smashed to shit.Its like a conspiracy.

A nice 1st gen was blown up in Bad Boys, a 78' Z28 was smashed up in Beverly Hills Cop..

Stoner drove an 81' Z into a pile of bricks on fast times at ridgemont high..

Uhh I had a gumball ralley movie with a nice yellow 2nd gen that rolled

The bully drove a grey '67 Z/28 in the movie Christine but was burned to the ground by a gas station explosion..

There was also another really nice red 3rd gen in.. damn cant remember the name, But the guys girlfriend burnt it to the ground..

I seen a 2nd gen camaro on the Simpsons too of all places.. It was nelsons dads "shootin' car"

it was all shot up.. They're even gettin' bagged on in cartoons

firebird in donnie darko lol

68 rs covertible.....killed by michael myers is halloween 5.
buried alive 1, nice blue iroc-z owned by the wife.
adventures in babysitting maroon iroc-z.....w/so cool on the license plate
85-87 blue and silver z28 in next of kin

1st gen in Remember the Titans got smashed by a truck. Another one in Christine got blown up at a gas station. Then yet another in that new commersial (spell check) where the guy is having his pic takin while leaning on the back of his camaro on the side of a cliff by the ocean and the dumbass forgot to set the parking brake.

I'm watching Beverly Hills Cop 2 right now and there's a black Z28, hasn't been destroyed yet, but we'll see what happens...

I bet they just fix the same Camaros over and over again on Fear Factor, because with the roll cage and the way they set up the stunts, they probably don't actually hurt anything but the body.

wrecking all these cars may make the ones that we own more valuable, but i dont own my 89 IROC yet.

also, im quite impressed with the knowledge of camaro appearances in movies here.

final thought, whoever said that 2 fast 2 furious was good for muscle cars is sick in the head. those tuners may have been almost as fast, but just to compare them to a yenko is sacreligious...

those are all sad crashes but remember in 2 fast 2 furious when that mustang got ran over by the truck that was just a bad crash cuz the guy was trying to be sweet atleast with all the camaro crash it was an honorable crash

i think they took out a camaro in torque too. im not sure cause ive tried to erase that poison from my memory.

oh god, its coming back, im relapsing!!!

don't forget these shows want ratings. would anybody even watch the show if the stars were in imports that get wrecked. Wrecking "decent" rides evokes reactions from us. makes us watch it, etc.. To them it's buisness. But I happen to know the '69 camaro used in 2 fast 2 furious was a rusted POS with a quick fixer upper job to make it look good. they didn't destroy a nice example.

Hollywood in general is a bastard to cars. I heard that the Saleen used in Bruce Almighty received a quick paint job to make it silver (the car was originally yellow something) basically ruined the car just to have another color....

I love when they destroy Mercedes, a pretentious car if there ever was one!

On the simpsons Abu the quickie mart clerk drives a red trans am on the valentines day episode where he is a cassanova.No damage to said car was witnessed during the episode.Im in shock.
On king of the hill boomhower or whatever his name is drove a early year model mustang,wich hank, bill and dale drove it into a lake or somthing because he was obsessed if i remember right.I think Matt Groaning Might be a Chevy fan.

Martin Laurence drove a nice black 3rd gen in National Security

he locked his keys in the car? not sure if they smashed it up or not
