And the police dispatcher's line was PRICELESS! "Use of unnecessary force has been approved." (sorry, I don't recall the exact wording).

And of course, there's the "Hut! Hut! Hut! Hut!" of the rappelling police!

I think that was right ... another of my favorites is: "I hate Illinois Nazi's!"

I love that movie, watch it every time it comes on.

Oh BTW: The mall that they drove through is about 30 minutes from my house. Belive it or not, it was finally torn down last summer. I remember reading about it.

Also the opening scene of Jake getting out of jail, that jail is about 15miles from me. The jail itself had been closed for years, it recently burned down.

Speedometer went up to 140. Won't say how many times it was buried. Did a quarter mile in very high 12's, very low 13's. 375hp, 390 ft. pounds of torque. She got up and went. Miss her badly. If I could find another one in as good a shape as she was, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

The ONLY production car of its day out of the factory to beat the Corvette.

A bit of trivia:

The clerk at the Cook County tax assessor’s office was Steven Spielburg.

And of course, the officer checking out Jake from the prison was Frank Oz, the hand and voice behind Miss Piggy and Fozzie Bear.

There were other cameos, like John Landis, Joe Walsh, and Mr. T.
