Vibe in new movie

Post by leemur »

I was watching Arnold Schwartsenager's new movie, The Last Stand, and there it was...Arnold shooting up a black 09/10 Vibe with the 1.8 motor. It saved the bad guy. These cars sure are safe :) It's at the 1:12 minute mark.

It is a pretty good movie. Not always believable but good.

Interesting. I don't watch many movies BUT I'll have to make sure I check this one out. Why sacrifice a good RARE car as the 09-10 Vibe. Aren't there any Yugo's left on the road for them to destroy :?: :lol:

rewatched the movie with wife. The Vibe comes in a bit earlier in the scene than I thought. Maybe at the 1 hour mark. It is a base with fog lights and maybe a sun roof. The wheels are the 1.8 ltr steel wheels and hubs though. I guess someone didn't want to waste those 17" alloys.

I wouldn't want to see that. :( I'm still traumatized from all the mutilated Pontiac squad cars in smokey & the bandit.

If it had the 1.8L wheel covers, the OEM 17s wouldn't fit on it :P.

My bad. It does have the fog lights and 1.8 hubcaps though. I always saw pics of the foglights paired with the 17" alloys. Or so me thinks I saw.

Nice job Nick. Thanks to the internet NOTHING is sacred anymore :o Or at least whatever you may want to find out about, is just a click away :)

on TV, in today's episode of Continuum on Syfy, at about the 28 minute mark, the main character gets out of her car to talk to two other cops and there's a silver vibe in the background.

Funny how these cars get in your head, it is hard for me to not notice a Vibe
