I always loved this great movie. The cars of today are way overpriced, fragile, overly complicated computer-controlled junk. Those older Mercury's and Lincolns were great cars.
So many cars here that probably weren't designed to be driven fast (or at least not this fast). But ironically, when you drive a slow car fast, you often get the best results!
You watch the Imperial when it's chasing the crop-dusting plane,does a pretty impressive jump,and a hard landing which springs the hell out of the unibody Imperial and pops the front of the decklid.
No, that can be right you blew up the contiental with there getaway driver after she got shot by sheriff during robbery and escape how cruel can you be guys.
I'm alive today because of a metal car, everything in those metal cars was three times the thickness of today's cars the glass the metal and the bumpers don't fall off and you can hit all kind of stuff driving to the house and come out the other side and bumper will still be on. I can't believe the public has finally given in to buy stuff made out of recycled trash. Today's cars have a description one whack it's on a rollback they can be made inoperable in a parking lot crash. Then it's on the rollback diesel truck on its way to be recycled for a third time
Yeah, it's night and day of how cars are now compared to decades ago. Things used to be much tougher. I am glad to have driven a 1989 Crown Vic. Solid as a rock.
Cars these days are designed to crumple better to absorb the impact for you. They are in fact, much safer than these ever were (not as good looking though)
So well built that the engine goes into your cabin and sits beside you or on you in accidents. Fact many cars that are old many panels on various models were not thick like some people think they were. The problem is many think because a car is big they associate and start to have a belief older cars are better for safety. Movies are movies and those cars are built stronger for stunt scenes. I like the older cars they have less electronics. There are pros and cons to old and new. I have been to many county fair demo derbys and those big cars crumple up quit bad. Don't allow nostalgia and a belief of thicker metal to convince you that you will be safer. You simply allow your personal feelings to over ride commonsense.
Maybe you just got lucky? New cars have a little something known as Crumple Zones......and air bags ......and anti-lock brakes.....and backup cameras........and so on, and so forth.
