This is an "already done" thread. My input would be the 98 LS400 pushed off the roof of a skyscraper in "anger management"

At the end of the movie when the owner confronted jack nicholson about it and said "Well, maybe you can explain what happened to my F***ING LEXUS!!" All my friends with me immediately turned to me and snickered!

Just thought of another one (well kinda obvious for all of us)

Black GS400 or GS430 (it had the stock yellow fogs) in the garage scene in "Fast and the Furious".

put it this way, i haven't bought any hk movies dvd for the LONGEST time, but i bought the whole trilogy. infernal affairs was just phenomenal, must see. second one was ok, not that good imho. 3rd one story was very complicated, it's ok. but first one, 5 stars

Cool Shaft Remake With Samuel Jackson

Shaft remake is another flick that comes to mind. Peoples Hernandez played by Actor Jeffery Wright. The dude had a Black LS400 and LX470 with "Peoples" vanity plates. I loved him flying down the streets in his Lexus.

Default Lexus in new "Omen" movie

Anybody seen it yet ?
I haven't seen it yet, but a colleague saw it & said Lexus must have product placement in that movie.
The Ambassador (the antichrist's father) had a LS430 in the beginning, & there are several scenes with the 3GS towards the end, in which he drove the antichrist boy to a church to try to kill him.

What was that movie about con men in Vegas, where the guy tries to sell his Mercedes at a used car lot only to have the dealer tell him that people don't want Mercedes anymore, they want Lexus?

i cant believe they didnt include the gs from belly, that scene was super tight, methodman shoots up that place gets blasted by a shotgun, crawls to the black GS, and it burns off

Yeah pretty impressive, although Audi has 21 pages worth of movies and BMW has 73.

What actually annoys me as "an outsider" is that...ive been to america...and the cars that populate the movies and the tv-series are in no way representative of what kinda cars you guys drive! You guys...of course know this...but most average people in europe...especially ones that dont freqent boards such as this...dont actually know this...and to them america seem to be full of just american cars!

Im not shure if that makes sense to you or not though!
