antp ◊ 2007-02-07 23:41	Also what? that's just another Pinto of the same color

Colan-Nelson ◊ 2010-01-04 17:37	They should of had it rear ended

cko ◊ 2013-02-02 02:16	The crash was so fake, lots of CGI. Its possible they didnt really blow the car up.Lots of exagerrated crashes in that scene and animated fire.
Gag Halfrunt ◊ 2014-07-29 11:17	It's a joke based on the Pinto's reputation for being unsafe. It was notorious for supposedly having an unsafe fuel tank design. -- Last edit: 2014-07-29 11:50:00

But it wasn't even hit from the rear ... Then again, Final Destination movies don't exactly have the most realistic physics in the first place...

dsl ◊ 2019-07-13 02:13	The exploding one seems to have a same colour vinyl roof and trim strip extending to rear wing, unlike the driving one (3rd thumb of last HD batch).
Terra ◊ 2019-07-13 02:14	Could two Pinto's have been used here?
Skid ◊ 2024-07-19 03:40	Certainly...one driver, one blow-up car.
GodzillaFan54 ◊ 2025-03-10 14:39	Is it just me or does the C-pillar look like it's been cut through?
