I did, but I can no longer confirm that information. I don't know what their plans are as far as the Charger is concerned.

Ford Guy, didn't you once say that the NYPD was unsatisfied with the Dodge Chargers that they tested and decided not to use any more of them in the future?

Nice pictures. The wheels would indicate that those are police-package Dodge Chargers, although I find it odd that they would wreck such new cars so soon. They certainly are not real NYPD Chargers as the graphics are slightly different as is the push-bar. Also interesting that they're not using the traditional white with blue decals scheme that the NYPD uses on their normal patrol vehicles, but instead that navy blue and white scheme found on units belonging to other specialized divisions of the NYPD.

mmmmmmmm mm mmmmmmmmm mm mmmmmmmmm

I love Chargers as police vehicles by the way, they look simply cool, the bad thing is that this means that our beloved CV will have to dissappear

Neat, they actually went ahead and crashed a Mopar vehicle, like the Plymouth in the original. I wonder how they are going to incorporate the hijacking aspect with all the modern day fears about terrorism though.

Kind of off topic, but IRT, which bus station was that photo taken at?

Yes, but it did not seem to be very big, at the first time I thought that the car slided just by avoiding the truck.

??? Didn't the truck hit the car in the first video (time 0:14 sec) ???

I'm not sure whether to be happy or angry about this. Pelham 123 is one of my all time favourite films, and it will be terrible if they mess it up.

nice but I was hoping to see a crash in the videos

Hi...

After collaborating on Crimson Tide, Man on Fire and Deja Vu, Oscar winner Denzel Washington will reteam with director Tony Scott for the fourth time on a remake of the 1974 thriller The Taking of Pelham One Two Three.

Entertainment Weekly first reported, and Variety has since confirmed, that Washington is in negotiations to star in the Columbia project. David Koepp penned the screeplay for production company Escape Artists.

The 1974 film starred Walter Matthau as sardonic transit cop Lt. Zachary Garber, who is pitted against a quartet of unidentified gunmen (led by Robert Shaw) who have hijacked a subway train. They demand that a $1 million dollar ransom be paid within an hour or they'll kill one passenger per minute until it is. Garber must work fast - despite political pressure - to piece together the hijackers' identities and foil their scheme. Pelham was remade in 1998 as a TV movie starring Edward James Olmos and Vincent D'Onofrio.

Denzel will play "Zachary 'Z' Garber" in the film, which starts filming in early 2008.

Found a stunt scene (with a crash) at youtube and some pictures:

Found this, too:
The New York Police Department is getting its Mopar back on (check out "The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3" for reference), decades after abandoning Chrysler products for Chevys and Fords. The city's Finest is getting a new fleet of Dodge Charger police cars, which will start replacing the front-drive Impalas and aging Crown Vics in which they currently nab up skells. As part of a pilot program, the department will order 15 police-version Chargers this summer, with the possibility of replacing its entire, 3,000-vehicle fleet if the Hemis prove up to the job.

Looks like there will be more Dodge Chargers in NY action/police movie in the future!
