I wonder where this scene was shot. Skodas and Ladas were sold in Canada so it doesn't have to be in Europe.

Could be Canada. It has side markers and bigger bumpers.

What's up with the Lada Nova (it's West German name) in the background, is there a better pic of it? So we can have look, if it's also a "made for CDN)-version.

Or the cars could have been brought into the US from Canada. According to a trivia comment on the IMDB, almost everything was filmed in and around Chicago.

The Lada is in /vehicle_310558.html
You can just about see the sidemarker, indicating that it's a Canadian spec model.

It was just recently I heard about Canadian Skodas. Here is a brochure cover.

I believe very few were sold. I remember an episode in McGyver which has a Skoda 120/130 in use. I hope someone adds picture someday.

As I remember, at my school-exchange to Vancouver in Summer 1988 I've seen some single Skoda's, and at least one Lada 1500, too.

It is some 120. The grill is of European 120 LS indeed (although Euro LS never had plastic bumpers to me - not with this grill at least). By the bumpers, I guess about 1983. 130rapid perhaps will know something. ;)

Only 120 GLS since 1982 model year had plastic bumpers,but grill indicating LS.I think,that Canadian-spec models can have plastic bumpers in all trim-level since this time,when GLS for european market had plastic bumpers.So provably about 1982 Canadian-spec 120 LS...

Unfortunately the author's grasp of Skoda history is rather confused. :)
Quote Unfortunately for SkoCar and the Canadian Consumer, just as the modern front engine Skoda Favorit was about to enter production, VW Group bought Skoda and put an end to Skoda exports to Canada.

Book about Skoda 105/120 from Jan Tuček that I got says these started to be sold in Canada in 1983. The 742M model came in the autumn, so this is the early 83 model. I only saw two other pics of it, it has to be quite rare...
