Seeing what a 1973 Trans Am goes for these days, and how rare they are, it's a real shame they smashed on up for this movie.

Still, a pretty good flick, and seeing how it was smoking the tires in the scene where he is chasing the step van, gives you an idea of the kind of power this car had.

I met the guy who bought that car after the movie was made. He was then a young special forces soldier and he bought the car in Fairbanks or Anchorage AK for around $3500 and it had about 1500 miles. It even had the white dirt inside the car probably from the picture above. He transfered to Fort Bragg NC....my neck of the woods.
Got drunk and drove one night in Southern Pines NC and an Southern Pines city cop tried to stop him. Thought
he was invinicible, went around a curve and unfortunately his Transam went straight and collided with a big tree.
The car was totaled but he made it thru just fine. He is in his early 60s now and kicks himself in the behind for
doing such a dumb thing. He even loaned me his tape of the movie...
Now the internet world knows the fate of this Pontiac Trans AM.

Hmmm, it's been a while since I've seen this movie but I was pretty sure that the car got totalled in the movie.

It appears they used at least 2 cars for the filming of the movie. If you're a real TA nut (like me) you'll notice different license plates on the cars. One of them sounded like a stick shift car (the police underground parking garage specifically). I'm sure neither were SD455 cars. Too bad that gentleman wrecked his Brewster Green car from the movie. I can't imagine how much money that car would be worth today.
