Heh. Even better it would make the Mustang guys all mad (sacreligious and all that) .

i think bullitt should be left to history, that movie was great, chevy guy or not.
i do think that grand theft auto as a movie may have potential. fast cars, women, mafia, wanton violence, big guns, c'mon! that's pretty much what's hot on television anyways... and yeah, have the guy drive a badass camaro! and yeah, when he drives it, play the fast part of the dead milkmen song! bitchen camaro! bitchen camaro! lol...

no no no to remake of bullit. that was a HORRIBLE movie with a bad *** car chase at the end (note: it was not a car movie).
Im all for a car movie with the Camaro as the main car. maybe a family of Camaro, challenger, and mustang that "fight" ricers but the challenger and mustang lose and the camaro has to pick up for their slack (being the best one of them all)
and please NO ROB COHEN. that guy is the master of cheese

Re: We need a cool car movie featuring the new Camaro
how about a movie that shows the comeraderie in the automotive industry. something more realistic, portraying all the different kinds of enthusiasts, and the crossovers (myself included) that dont have a dead set affiliation? start it as kind of a grassroots thing, showing how someone gets into the street racing scene (and not this overglorified FnF deal.) then lead into them getting arrested or busted somehow and going about more legal pursuits. this would work with any company, really. obviously, for this pitch the lead car would be a brand new z28/ss/whatever, but made into a drag racer, autox/track racer, drifter, whatever you want. just make it have some semblance of a plot, and a decent rivalry.

And for cool GTO movie I liked the Punisher where he orders a crate motor for his 69 or so GTO. I thought that was a good one. "Black Cat run" was good Where the main charachter in a 442 had to chase down convicts in a Chevelle who kidnapped his girlfriend.

Has anyone seen the video for "I Disappear" by Metallica? Granted it's a music video, but he's rolling around in his 1st gen... If you want to see it, it's on the special features of Mission Impossible: 2 DVD and yes I bought it just for the Camaro.

Maybe it shouldnt even be a car oriented movie. Just have a movie with a good story and a good plot where the good guys drive the new Camaro and maybe throw in a small chase scene or fast driving scene. Nothing too over the top, but gets to show the car off a little.
Kind of like the new movie "Firewall" where Harrison Ford's ride is a Chrysler 300C. Obviously not a car oriented movie, but it looks like the car appears in enough scenes to give it ample screen time.

But seriously, what better way to raise it's image? Part of the movie, Bond might drive a BMW, another part he might have a shot driving a new Camaro....one that's been modded by 'Q' of course!

There was a 04 GTO in Desperate Housewives.
I think GM needs to hook up with a TV show thats popular like CSI and have one of the main characters drive it occasionally.
I always remember Cheers and Sam Malone's stingray Vette convert.

As long as the movie does not suck, there is atleast one great chase scene (preferably more), and the Camaro is the hero car, I think that would be awsome .
