Pontiac Bonneville from the late-1970's. |

either 80-81 Bonneville or 85-86 Pontiac Parisienne? |

1980 Bonneville. Same car as Buford T. Justice drives in "Smokey And The Bandit 2". |

Some location has been reported in USA as well as Canada according to IMDb ![]() |

Well, that kinda looks like a blurry Ontario/Quebec/Nova Scotia license plate. So 1985 Parisienne might be correct. -- Last edit: 2013-08-30 20:30:02 |

Should be "Pontiac unknown." |

Truckface was right the first time, the taillight is 1980 only (divided horizontally twice, the 1981 and 1985-86 taillight was only divided once). So either a Bonneville or Parisienne. |

There was no 1980 Pontiac Parisienne in the US. That name was introduced here later. Listing as Bonneville. But is it a Bonneville or a Bonneville Brougham? -- Last edit: 2013-08-31 14:58:19 |

I really can`t spot the "Brougham"- logo under the "Bonneville" emblem on the side panel: /vehicle_625637.html . So i`ll say it`s a plain Bonneville, but i don`t know if the vinyl roof or the trim on the wheels would have anything to do with the "Brougham" edition. ![]() -- Last edit: 2013-08-31 15:31:19 |

The 1980 brochure shows a vinyl roof on a non-Brougham Bonneville too. Also that heavy lower body chrome trim. -- Last edit: 2013-08-31 17:09:05 |

I believe these scenes were filmed in Vancouver. |
