Cannonball Run II
Ahhh, yes. I see your point about "character". From what I see, the 5 stars is for cars that are "part of the movie".
No big deal really. I just wanted to log on the site that the car is still in circulation so to speak.
It is also noteworthy to say the car was the catalyst for the Japanese car craze as we know it today. I know, I sound full of myself, but there was no, good, Japanese performance car before this one. The market exploded directly AFTER the CBRII movie, and never dropped off since.
Also, there are few movie cars (if any) that are still in circulation, that people actually know the car. I travel to Japan, Taiwan, Europe, etc... Men everywhere are car enthusiasts, so the topic always comes up without my starting it! Then I mention that I own the car, and they all remember it, as it played a large role in the movie, and the most famous movie star in the world, rode in it. Jackie Chan of course!
I just think it is neat that everyone seems to know the car, and remember it very well in the movie.
