A 1982 - 1984 Pontiac Trans Am appears in Terminator 2 driving down the alley behind The Terminator and John Connor:
Although there is no single unobstructed view that can be captured with a single screen shot, in the actual movie you can clearly see all parts of the car as it moves behind the motorcycle in the near background over about 50 frames of video. Any enthusiast could easily spot and identify the car without even having to hit rewind.
The car is interesting or relevant because not only is it a well known American icon, but it's also the third separate F-body (Camaro/Firebird) to appear in the movie (coincidence, or did someone on the production crew have a thing for these cars?). Additionally it's of the same vintage as the famous "KITT" from the TV show Knight Rider.

I added the two other pictures as well as the comment, which I found useful (at least to explain why list this background car)
