Wow thats great!

I was looking at a Maserati Quattroporte last year and when I called the owner I found out that is was one of the cars in The Godfather. It needed too much work though.

Thanks for the comments guys!

Rich! Can you resize that pic again? It said it was too large...that should totally be my new avatar!

Yes, I've had the holes filled in, and I'm having it repainted, and FINALLY mounting my 951 rear valence.

Yeah, business is booming up here in Vancouver for film. I'll be on plenty more of films so I'll be sure to get my car in when I can.

Don't worry, I don't let ANYONE drive my car but me...I don't know how I would feel about letting just any actor drive my car...perhaps...it depends on the offer! But I will try to put it in the background!

Yeah, I love my Iceshark decal...proudly displayed!

The Illinois plates are props...the story takes place in Illinois. It's all shot here in Vancouver!

The name of the film is "12 Hours To Live". It's an MOW, and will likely air a couple months from now. If I find out anything specific I'll let you guys know for sure. We never really find out when the movies air, unfortunately, unless one personally inquires.

The woman you see with the gun is Ione Skye, best known for her role in "Say Anything" with John Cusack. Another actor was Kevin Durand, who is in "Walking Tall" and "Mystery, Alaska", and Michael Moriarty, from Law & Order.

Very nice!

OK, sorry for the temp hijack, but where do you get the rennlist decal for the little quarter window? All I saw at the rennlist store were 11", 27" and 33" banners.

Sweet! Thanks so much testarossa!

The rennlist sticker is mailed to you after you pay for a membership. I have 3 on my car, from my 3 years as a member...if you never got one, contact Jen Munson.

I've been renewing for 5 years, at first I couldn't get the correct color, now I don't even get a sticker.

My car was in another movie, and this time I got paid! (Well, I got a tank of gas, which is fine by me)

This movie is called "Not My Life", starring a local actor named Ari Cohen, and Meredith Monroe, who played "Andie" on Dawson's Creek (she was one of the nicest and most grateful actors I've worked with yet). It's about a woman who slowly finds out that her perfect life isn't so, when she discovers her husband, a doctor, had kidnapped her and has been supressing her memory of another life in order to keep her for his own (farfetched of course but, it's an MOW)

Last time I had Illinois plates, and this time they're Colorado plates

This was outside his doctor's practice, and he pulls in to the spot next to me in his Range Rover. I have a little movie of it but I don't know how to host it...

The movie should be out in a few months on the Lifetime Network. Too bad I don't get that station up here!

I'll keep representing our cars when I get the chance!

That is so cool, I was wondering what you avatar was all about...

That is great that you got the Porsche, "Rennlist" and "Iceshark" all together in the shot!

BTW, I saw the pics of the bumper pad delete in the other thread... looks nice!
