Rx-7 in the movie "The Howling" Video's

haha, just saw this old horror movie the other night and noticed what appears to be a '79 or '80 SA, i capped some shots, they are freakin' hilarious.

first one. "not all of us have got enough money for a mazda, some of us have to work for a living!"

second one. gotta love screeching tires on grass!

and the last but not the least.. guess Rx7s had troubles starting when they were brand new, too

The last two links are no good, but the first is pretty cool. The best shot of a 1st gen I've seen in a movie.

That's funny. I especially like when they jump into the cop car and she says "give it to me"...

It's the best when the guy pumping gas says, "Take it easy pal, you know what, not all of us have got enough money for a Mazda, some of use have to work for a living you know what I mean?" lol I feel special knowing I can afford a Mazda, apparently I don't have to work for a living!

Hahaha, that is some funny stuff.

How the hell did it blow up by just shooting the back window and the headlights?
I think he said "I smell gas" when he grabbed her to get her out of the car. LOL.


Good find!

80. 79's don't have the two vertical black rubber pieces on the rear bumper.

1979 without the vertical pieces.

haha, ya why'd they have to blow it up? well im not sure they actually did, maybe they just blew up a bunch of gas cans or something... if you look closely there isnt really a car there when the explosion happens

They still gave the image of it blowing up, which is bad enough.
