71 Chally R/T in Adidas/Champs Commercial
« on: December 03, 2010 - 11:13:18 PM »
Saw this commercial the other night.  Not sure how new the commercial is but there's a blue Challenger R/T at about the 10 second mark.  Just thought I'd share!

Very cool!

I wonder if that was the actual color of the car or was it touched up so the color blended with everything else in the commercial?  I really liked the color!  :thumbsup:

There have been alot of Challengers used in movies and TV shows starting back in '71 with Vanishing Point.  There is a thread here on c-c.com where members listed all the movies and TV shows that ebodies appeared in.   Latest example is a movie coming out in a few months where the lead character is some businessman (Vince Vaughan?) who drives around in a blue Challenger convertible.

Here is one on Challengers, there is a similar one on cudas, I thought there was more extensive thread but I don't see it right now.  There are certainly tons more, like Vanishing Point, that movie from the 90's with Woody Harrelson and a girl as a couple of mass murderers driving around in a Challenger convertible, Bucket List, in NCIS the lead characters dad has a yellow '70, there was that Quentin Teritino movie a few years back that had a white Challenger and black Charger (inspired by Vanishing Point and Bullit), the orange Challenger in Fast and Furious.  The list goes on!
