Mike, I seen the movie last weekend, and you're right it's not for the faint of heart. However I did like the flick, and enjoyed seeing the old cars especially the 57 or 58 Imperial.

I went to see it last night, and while I certainly don't recommend it for the faint of heart (or weak of stomach) there was a pretty good sized scene about 1/2 way through where Benicio del Toro is crusing with his "troups" (all 5 of them) in the Imperial. I could barely make out the grille, so not 100% on the year, but the tailights definitely place it as a 57/58/59. There's a toilet seat deck lid (sorry, I mean "Flightsweep") and a Landau roof. Unfortunately, they refer to it as "The Chrysler". :( That and a samurai prostiture slashes a sword through the roof.
