NYPD Blue. Always seems to be one in the background between scenes.

Since I posted in the firebird thread, but this one is a Camaro I'll just cross post them.
In 1995 they made an animated Streetfighter II movie. At the end there is a White 85-90 TA in the background. Movie is chock full of iconic American cars. And considering they have to draw them, that means they were specifically chosen by the animator to be there.
Street Fighter 2 V (1995) TransAm cameo.
In addition, there is a Camaro in the background of 1989's Riding Bean in the parking garage.

I had a 1983 Trans Am that had a Targa Top done by the same company that did the Simon and Siom
car. The top is actually made of Fiberglas with a pebbled black texture to make it look like leather. They attempted to beef up the chassis by welding two small steel beams underneath,but the body had a lot of flex in it. They are pretty rare.

Doesn't it kind of creep you out when someone tells you they don't like these cars? I understand not buying one; they don't suit everyone's lifestyle. But how can someone not like this car? I have friends that just don't get it. That think I have terrible taste in cars and couldn't believe when I once again bought a 3rd gen this year. Almost makes you rethink the whole relationship.

Low budget Netflix movie, American Joyride, features a 91/92 RS. Worth watch for the car and the girl, not much else.

Re: TV's Shows & Movies that have 3rd Gen Camaro or Firebird
If it hasn't been mentioned, I recently come across a norwegian car movie that I really enjoyed. It has a third gen firebird in it as one of the main cars but also a lot of american cars. Being what it is, you need to read subtitles but it is definitely worth it.
"I edit this post so I can say that you should really check this movie out. It is my car movie now. I love gone in 60 seconds and the first fast and furious movie with 2 fast and furious. This one is the car movie. It even has the song east bound and down. And you will all love the car that wins the cross country rally!"

Scarface,............... As they pull up to the hotel in their convertible to pick-up the Cocaine there's a Camaro Coupe parked on the street. About 19 minutes and 44 sec into the movie.
Murphy's Law,......... Can't recall how far in the movie this was.
Hell or High Water,......... Robbing a Bank, then bury the Camaro !

I just spotted one in Saving Silverman. When the coach jumps out of the moving van, he slides into a parked, black Z28

Not sure if someone already mentioned this one....but lots of 80’s nostalgia here. Some nice 3rd gens, Grand National, etc...
I grew up near Queens(NY) during this time and actually cruised the “Franny Lew” a couple times, so this movie speaks to me and did a pretty good job capturing the scene back then. Definitely worth a watch.

Just saw a red 91’-92’ Firebird in Cobra Kai being driven by the old villain Johnny now as a Middle aged guy. Car looked rough but he was blasting Foreigner and giving it the onions.

Re: TV's Shows & Movies that have 3rd Gen Camaro or Firebird
Cobra Kai (continuation series of the original Karate Kid) has the main character driving a third gen Trans Am, at least for the first bit.
