And here is one being driven by a psycho in the film Mahogany. Also features some Diana Ross Mega-Acting. Car first appears at :32.

CommuNASTY girls! Purr...

Doesn't the wife look like she is from Talos IV? And if so, why no racism towards her?

@FrankGrimes: 1977. However, Bond also had an Esprit in For Your Eyes Only (1981), so...partial credit!

@FrankGrimes: That Esprit is from the 70's. For the 80's, Bond was back in an Aston Martin and, of course, could not resist the awesome 80's-ness of Audi, either (The Living Daylights).

Wha? A 2002 WITHOUT a Tii badge on it? Now that's a rare beast.

@spiegel1: But an 8-track player best represents the push button manual. Want to change tracks? K-thunk-k-thunk-k-thunk. Oh darn, not exactly where you want it? That's okay, it will catch-up.

Shelob! It even has multifaceted eyes. As wicked as the car looks, I preferred it without the mandibles.

The 560 would be good, if you want Crockett and Tubbs pulling you over all the time, but I'll take the Q-Ship. Unlike the Merc, there IS a chance the Audi has a 5-speed. Row-your-own V8 quattro? Folks usually have to pay big bucks for that goodness.

Of course, he means LIBELOUS. Whatever. Faked or not, what I get from this is that this guy isn't good at anything.

@jalopnikfan: False statements to the police is a no-no.

@McMike: Non-assisted steering at speed is no problem, but brakes can be pretty tough. Worse, something I have noticed in the course of these news stories is that occasionally the camera will show a drivers foot actuating the pedal, but they are having to point their foot/toes to fully depress the pedal. It's no…

Even after the 500 penalty laps?

Oh, and Anthony Perkin's Iso Grifo from "Mahogany."

Kris Kristofferson's Ferrari Daytona in "A Star is Born."

Ah, the good ol' days, when Toyota was banned for cheating, because they had...surreptitiously modified a device that caused their rally cars to...accelerate...oh hell, never mind. Nice photo, though.
