Herbie fully loaded - sad I know. In the first coulpe of scenes in the movie where LL is choosing her car, you see a subaru XT6 get crushed. I imediately thought "bastards - I could use some parts off that"...

Anyway - anyone else noted a subaru in a flick that we don't get to see often?

The Tom hanks movie "BIG" ocmes to mind too, it as a subaru Vortex or XT4 at the end of it, look real schmik...

Cheers

I was watching Frontline season 1 (I think) the mock current affair show made by the d gen.

And Mike Moore was driving a svx, one of the jokes was the alarm keep going off.

In 'The Truman Show' there is a Loyale GL10 Wagon (an American fully optioned l series with digidash, sunroof ect) in the beach scene.

Have a look at this Subaru's in movies and TV series

When you get paid fortnightly and its not til next week that you're paid next, there's not much else to do - unless work calls up...

I'd go 4wd'n but need the fuel for other things atm :( and i've just put a new set of roadies on the front - I don't wanna do what I did in heathcote last year...

I haven't seen any other movies today with any subaru's in it. In underbelly there's a good "old school" WRX in the early episodes. Its got me hooked.

Cheers

haha Hot Fuzz...best movie ever :)

I'm on a really dodgy connection thru my mobile phone in Mt Isa at the moment so I can't load that entire list....but I remember there was a pretty sweet (would have probably been brand new) L series wagon in one of the Bill & Ted movies - was behind them when they were doing something with a phone box and an old man, or something.

What I'd love to spot is a totally modified lifted offroader Subaru in a movie or TV show :)

There is a "Loyale" aka L Series on the ferry in "The Ring". I think there is a Forester driven around as well

Hot Fuzz, how could i have forgotten that. Still my favourite movie to date.

Another one is "not another teen movie" has a red forester in a scene with the young fellas outside the party

"You only live twice" - not a bad choice considering it is the Mayans end of the world sometime soon. I was watching for the Toyota 2000GT as featured in the Top Gear Bond Cars Special and there on the road early on was I swear a little Su'baru 360 complete with its headlight eyelids and very prominent bonnet emblem

+1 for Dexter

A friend of mine named her son Dexter about year before series 1 hit the AUDM. Cool name!
