Not sure if I will go see it...I thought it looked kinda Cheesy.  lol...

Not to be Debbie Downer, but it always annoys me that all these movie makers see fit to destroy sweet muscle cars!  It looked like in the video that they were trashing a 71 or 72 Chevelle and a Charger (and it sure looks like that Mark will be destroyed in a explosive, violent, gruesome manner as well).  Why can't they crash Honda's or something?  lol...

At least Nicks female co-star looks to be a hottie...so that's a plus ;)

Oh and if its any consolation, most of the ones they actually destroy are just shells.

I was wathing an episode of West Coast Customs' show, and they built 3 of the trucks that Stallone destroyed in The Expendables. They were all just J/Y salvage. 1 was a slightly working truck that they built for him to own and drive in the movie, 1 was a rust bucket that they pulled out of the JY, literally, and just made look pretty so he could destroy it in the chase scene, and the last was another rust bucket that they just built a shell for him to do green screen shots of him talking to Jet Li and stuff.

A lot of cars are just pretty on the outside but aren't really gems that they're destroying.

Even a rust-free shell of a Chevelle is worth several thousand though.

How about The Green Hornet?  They had to buy up NICE Imperials to destroy for that movie due to the fact that there are so few around.  I saw an interview with the guy that made the cars and he was talking about putting all of the bullet holes in...:(
