Audis in movies

[Joseph Rae]

Ive been watching daytime TV while working from home, and have noticed
that in Magnum PI the other car that Magnum drives is a Fwd 5000
automatic. Matter a fact yesterday Higgins rolled it when someone cut
the breaks... The type44 held up pretty well in a typical flying roll
over landing on the roof.. :)


Also in the opening to Finding Forester there is a 88+ Type44 with nice
wheels that the camera pans by.


Just a couple more that I have noticed in the last couple days.


Joe

Really! I would have been more inspired by Ferris Bueller's Day Off!

Sad to say, I think a type 44 gets sideswiped in one of the Camry Solara
adds, the one that is a take on the Italian Job....
