I wonder if it's product placement by Hyundai like the small SUV in The Walking Dead (Santa Fe I think it was)? It's cool to see our vehicle get air time.
What is y'all's fave movie/TV cars? I loved watching The Rockford Files with my dad and older brother. Rockford drove a Pontiac Firebird Esprit (European inspired trim -- lots of woodgrain in the interior, 350ci V8 standard). I think the color was "Copper Bronze Metallic".
Also, I liked the GMC Sierra from The Fall Guy. Rockford's dad from The Rockford Files also drove a GMC Sierra (also 2 tone), but I think his was a short bed. And the Dodge Power Wagon truck from Simon and Simon.
Miami Vice had the Ferrari Daytona and later Testarossa, and Magnum PI had the Ferrari 308.
