1970/71 Pontiac GTO convertible, pretty sweet car, too bad the one they had was a junker. I still want to know the name of the song that played at the intro and final scenes.
shareI would have to disagree with Bruno.
The Goat was based on the mid-sized Tempest chassis which was superceeded by the Grand Am.
In fact, before it's (first) demise, the GTO had become simply a sporty trim option available in the Grand Am series.
I do agree with the vintage, but I would expand that a little, say, late 60's/early 70's (leaning more to early 70's).
There's also the fact that you can see a rather long name printed on the passenger side rear fender in one of the shots.
Plus, the overhang and front end treatment screams full-size Poncho of that era, not mid-size.
It's either a Bonneville or a Catalina convertable.
Which one would depend on trim options (the Bonnie being the "deluxe" version).
Sorry Bruno, I can't recall the song.
I'll rent the movie again and if I can find out, I'll post a reply.
cmiddelmann posted this question last December. I wonder if he's ever checked back on it. I see no replies.
It's a 1967 full-size Pontiac, either a Catalina or a Bonneville. The latter has a longer wheelbase and a little different trim but it's hard to tell here.
shareAnd what about Woody Harrelson's character, who's got some weird-looking car ?
No-one cares, but the motorbike is a Honda CB 250 or 400 (Both are almost identical) Twin engine from the seventies ! :)
Woody's car is a GM EV-1 electric car I think.
shareAbsolutely correct.
I believe the EV-1 holds the distinction of being the first full electric car ever produced (for the general public) from any major car manufacturer.
Although strange looking, the body shape was designed in a wind tunnel and only produced about 1/2 the amount of drag that an average car of that time produced.
What in the wide wide world of sports is'a goin' on around here?!

Totally wrong, Blake.
Actually, rubenyc and Phroggy got it right.
According to the IMCDB, It's a '67 Bonneville and a '78 CB250T.
Tell me, you love your country?
Well, I've just died for it.
