Linked above is a short video I compiled a while back, of short movie clips where cars crash and/or explode.

I've spent literal years trying to identify the movies these clips were taken from, to no avail. Now, I'm not posting this here specifically so someone here can tell me what movies they're from.

No, I'm mainly hoping for people to be able to identify the make and model of some of the vehicles, as I think it could potentially help me find the movies themselves. Some cars are pretty easy to identify...

...others a bit less. I've had the most trouble identifying the two cars colliding at 0:26, the station wagon being landed on at 0:28, and the black car going off the cliff at 0:51.

I don't like having to resort to asking for help on a forum, as I feel like I'm bothering, but I feel I have no other choice. If anyone knows any of these (be it the movies or at least the cars), I'd be very glad. :smile:

Thank you if you took the time to read this. :grin:

(also, apologies if this is in the wrong category)

0:26 collision : car being hit is a 2000-2005 Chevy Impala
ca that hits it : well.. 1998+ Ford Crown Vic in the air that magically turns into a 1993-1997 Dodge/Chrysler Intrepid when it crashes into the Impala

0:28 wagon : 1988-1990 Toyota Corolla Wagon ( i just can't believe they scrapped a rare bird like that just for that.. :ohwell: )

0:51 still gives me trouble.. 1985-1992 VW Jetta ?

Hope it helps :smile:

For the last one I was thinking something like an Alfa Romeo of the late 70s/ 80s but it does not match. Or some Fiat or license from that? (Tofaş)

This is what I see:

0-0:06 - green car looks like a Ford Taurus, red hatch looks like a Mercury Tracer
0:06-0:21 - 1991-1992 Chevy Caprice
0:22-0:26 - 1998+ Ford Crown Vic
0:27- - 1993 Dodge Intrepid smashing into a 2000 Chevy Impala
0:33-0:44 - 1997+ Ford Econoline
0:45-0:50 - Volvo 740

i'd agree on Tracer but the green one , the way the mirrors are and the dashboard , i'd go for 1994 Caprice

:lol: I'm pretty sure the jump and the crash are two separate clips that have no direct relation (aside from clearly being in the same movie).

But thanks for everyone's help, I really appreciate it. :smile:

The black car at the end is really the toughest one. I thought it was another Volvo at first, before realizing Volvos don't look that ugly. Well, when compared to a Volvo. :crazy:

For the last one, not an Alfa or a Fiat or derived. I thought about the Jetta A2 too, but perhaps something looks off? Or maybe is a Toyota or a Nissan?

Ah, now I see Caprice when viewing.

Okay, so, I've just solved half of these (movie-wise), purely incidentally, and of course, right after I asked for help. That happens every time. :whistle:

Turns out the Crown Vic jump, Intrepid/Impala collision, smushed Corolla wagon, and flipped Econoline, were all from season 2 episodes of the Steven Seagal TV show TRUE JUSTICE. :sol:

If you wanted more fuel for your Seagal hatred, think of that poor Corolla... that'll do it. :lol:

And yes, I confirm that the Crown Vic didn't just turn into an Intrepid. :crazy: What happened was, the Crown Vic and the Intrepid were doing a game of chicken. The latter lost and crashed into the Impala.

Looks like we only have Season 1 completed. Amazon Prime seems to have both season available to members.

I've just found another one! The first two clips, with the exploding green Caprice, and the police car being landed on and exploding, are from the 2002 made-for-TV movie DEAD IN A HEARTBEAT.

I figured the footage looked like a low-budget made-for-TV Die Hard rip-off, so I went to the Die Hard Scenario wiki - because of course that exists - and checked through some lists, notably the "Die Hard in a hospital" list. "Dead in a Heartbeat" was the first one I checked out, and bullseye. I seriously love when that happens. :grin:

I just have the exploding Volvo and the black car going off the cliff left to find.
