My step-son got me a copy of the original Gone in 60 seconds a few years ago and we all watched it together. I read there were 150 cars wrecked in that movie. Toby Haliki, the guy that made the film, died in making the sequel a few years later when something they destroyed on the set fell on his car. If you get the CD, his wife talks about him and a guy is driving the original Elenor around a parking lot smoking the tires. The car is a WRECK, but still runs!
