Ok so out here in Iraq I was at this internet cafe place waiting in line and they had this lame 80's movie playing called "Action Jackson" on their big screen that they had. I'm sitting there thinking its really boring then all of a sudden the final scene is at a fancy dinner party at a mansion then all of a sudden I see a fiero front fascia in the background of the crowd! The movie suddenly had my attention! It was just a short blip and I thought that was going to be it. All of a sudden the bad guys come out and shoot everyone and run away. Just then Action Jackson runs over to the 86-88 GT (with ferrari like side scoops and sail windows) jumps in it starts it up (sounds like a big engine lol) throws it into drive and guns it ramming through a mansion door, runs over a couple of people, drives up the stairs and rams through another door and then gets out and starts kung fu'ing the bad guy. Action Jackson gets thrown through the passanger window and then gets out all mad that the dude just broke his fiero and beats the crap out of him then shoots him. Then some cops come up and say "haha nice piece of crap car" and then he gets mad again but then the scene ends. I thought it was so funny to see a fiero kill a couple of people in a movie.
Well you're close. Actually the whole movie was about the car (called the Haley) being produced by Dellaplane (played by Craig T Nelson). And it wasn't Jackson's car. It was Dellaplane (the guy that got shot in the end) and was on display at the "dinner party" since it was Dellaplanes company that was producing it.
It's a decent movie, you should watch the whole thing. -clint

"Trivia: The car seen at the mansion, the Halley, is actually a 1987 Pontiac Fiero with body effects that make the car resemble a Ferrari Testarossa coupe" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094612/

Really? I need to buy this movie, I've never seen it. My car just got back from New Orleans where it was used in the filming of "Stay Alive" that will be coming out next year.
hey that's really cool! I'll have to see that when it comes out
check out the used sellers page. how much shipping is i'm not sure. Prices range from a penny up to $7, with one at $15 (good luck with that sale, buddy! ) I'm thinking of picking one up
