Default Carrera GT in a new movie!

Just saw a preview for a movie called "Fracture" starring Anthony Hopkins which has a couple of Porsches in the preview including a Carrera GT.

The movie looks pretty good also!

Is he driving a green screen studio model or a real car?

they also make it look like he is the boxster driver.
boxsters are not usually found in the garage of cgt owners!

No...Anthony Hopkins did not drive that car. I believe he couldn't handle the clutch or can't drive stick. Sorry, forgot...but my dealer does work for most of the Studio cars, cars that PCNA loans out to magazines, film studios, etc., and was told this information. Cheers!

The reflection in the left side rear view mirror did not seem right.

good catch with the side view mirror, caught my eye too. the scenery was going in the same direction in the mirror as it was in the background, should have been opposite. rookie CGI mistake, hope they edit this before release.

We rented this a few weeks ago. Ryan Gosling grew up right around here.

I hadn't seen the trailer before I saw the movie. Guess if I smiled when I saw the cars they were driving. Really good movie too.
