On the flight home I had the joy of watching 'Wanted' (Morgan Freeman, Angelina Jolie, the bloke from Spiderman) - (perhaps a film that again the storyline hasn't been written for yet)

Anyway, imagine my excitement when matey chops is driving a 60's Mustang, then out pops an '86 Corvette coupe (in gold) - complete with roaring soundtrack. The cut scenes to the car interior were from a Viper SRT-10 though...

Hehe, had you had a few free onboard drinks by the time you watched it, Fran? biggrin

a) the star was Jame McAvoy who has not been in any Spiderman films, and b) the Vette was silver.

Good spot on the Viper gearlever. They must have shot that during the awesomely OTT Viper car chase at the beginning of the movie.

I really enjoyed it. A great popcorn flick and Ms Jolie looked (as always) mighty fine!

Francis, you're such a train spotter I'd worry about myself if it wasn't for you. What are the lengths of the plug leads on an '84 vette...?
