1971 Plymouth Barracuda, 1989 Nissan 240SX [S13] in Power Slide, Movie, 1990

The big Plymouth looks so freaking mean. What a great car

[NFSLFE]

That S13 driver looks more like a Porsche driver.

Sweet ❤️ I drove a 1971 barracuda to highschool . 318 auto . Worked at the Piggly Wiggly saved up put a 440 big block in her . Good times 😊

I like that absolutely half-hearted warning the sheriff gives the guy before he ends up getting turned to hamburger. "At least I can say in the report that I warned him, that covers my ass..."

What did they do? Convert a blue 71 Cuda to a red 70 Cuda clone?

[SnepperStepTV]

The Cuda is so friggin slick, my favorite year, too. The only things I'd change are give it a shaker hood and go with Plum Crazy purple paint instead of Mood Indigo blue.

Lots of nice iron in this clip. The red '65 Futura was pretty neat, not too often you see a hot Falcon in a movie.

That blue Plymouth would of walk away from that 4 cylinders 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[mexicanspec]

Why change the plate if he is going right back? I don't know the plot of this movie but why change the car completely then get the exact same plate?

Filmed in my hometown of Plattsmouth Nebraska

"Go around, @$$hole!", had me laughing!!

[stewpidaso]

That blue cuda was too quiet lol, good lookin car tho!

[CJColvin]

For me I take the Cuda over the S13 anyday.

There’s no way that 4cyl Nissan 240SX could out perform that Plymouth unless it has the slant 6 instead of the 360 hemi

[CycolacFan]

CUDA 1 looks a bit too much like ‘coulda won’ maybe 1 CUDA might have been better. Is the red ‘cuda at the end supposed to be the same car as the blue one?

[SeventhArt]

Ι used to drive this Nissan for years... different engine though... 1.8 L Turbo, 170 horsepower. Top speed 240 km/h on GPS

[alexander]

Thats not a barracuda, thats a 'cuda

[Surreyredneck]

Um… The Plymouth should be walking away from that Nissan like it’s standing still.

[BoostedPastime]

Was only having one mirror normal on cars back then? I know the 1988 Honda Civic STD trim came with only the drivers side mirror and I believe it was the DX and the later 89-91 models that came with a passenger side mirror. Apparently it used to be legal to have only one mirror.

Looks like the early '90s. This would have been more believable if the other car was a Stealth/3000GT, Supra, maybe a DSM at the least, not a slow 240
