crossfire in a movie?
 

I was watching HBO late last night...probably around 3 am or so. There was a movie on that i was watching for a few minutes. It was some corny movie with a guy who was dating 3 girls, all from different areas. Well, all 3 girls meet up at the guys house at the same time. As the guy was pulling up to his house, was driving an SSB crossfire. I was amazed to see the crossfire already in a movie, but such a poor movie. I have no clue what the title of the movie was though. Has anyone else seen this?

I forgot where I saw it was in this movie. It might have been at crossfiretalk. The movie is called Chasing Papi and came out before crossfires were being sold in the US. It was a stinker if I heard right.

What gets me is this upcoming made for TV movie starring the new GTO...oh yeah, and Dennis Hopper.

Saw a GTO in Annapolis last Sunday. At first and second glance I thought is was a riced out Chevy Cavalier. Guy came out of the bagel shop and started it up, I have to admit, the Vette engine sounded very, very nice.

I haven't seen it, but the movie was sponsored by Jeep and had a contest associated with it.

Here's a copy of last year's press release (I hope it pastes okay):

Jeep Drives into Hispanic Market with "Chasing Papi" Marketing Campaign

-Film targets Hispanic market and has general market crossover potential

-Jeep TV spot echoes movie plot and promotes both the vehicle and the film

-Integrated marketing campaign includes Jeep "Chasing Papi Parties" that kick off April 16

Auburn Hills, Mich., Mar 24, 2003 -Jeep is launching a multifaceted six-week promotion built around �gChasing Papi,�h a Hispanic-themed movie opening April 16. The campaign includes a national TV spot in both English and Spanish, product integration in the movie, Jeep Chasing Papi Parties in eight major Hispanic markets, online and radio promotion, and bilingual street teams.

The 20th Century Fox-produced movie features Roselyn Sanchez, Sofia Vergara, Jaci Velasquez and Eduardo Verastegui, all well-known Hispanic entertainers, actors, or s, in a spirited romantic comedy. The plot focuses on three very different women from Chicago, Miami and New York and their love interest. When the three discover they are all in love with the same man (Verategui), they decide to teach their �gthree-timing�h fellow a lesson and end up on a riotous adventure along the way. The Grand Cherokee is featured in the film, which also includes a sneak peek of the new Chrysler Crossfire.

�gJeep involvement in �eChasing Papi�f allowed us to create a truly integrated marketing campaign targeted at the Hispanic-American community, the fastest growing market in the U.S. In addition to targeting a market that has tremendous growth potential for our industry, the campaign we have developed has potential to reach general market consumers as well,�h said Jeff Bell, Vice President, Jeep Marketing.

In the 30-second TV spot, which is scheduled to begin airing March 24, three young, attractive women are seen leaving a movie theater where �gChasing Papi�h is showing. Two of the women get in a Jeep Wrangler; one takes off in a Jeep Liberty. While at a stoplight, they all spot a �gpapi chulo�h (good-looking man) in a Jeep Grand Cherokee who they believe is the star of the movie. A chase ensues and they catch the "papi chulo," only to discover that he is not the movie character. As the voiceover says, �gThe only thing that can catch a Jeep 4x4 is another Jeep 4x4,�h the women leave their catch with his hands tied on the street, in front of his Jeep Grand Cherokee.

To mark the movie�fs release, Jeep brand will kick off Jeep Chasing Papi parties April 16 at a nightclub in Chicago, and at clubs in New York, Miami, San Antonio, Dallas, Houston, San Francisco/San Jose and Los Angeles on April 17. Targeting young urban Hispanics, the parties will feature four weeks of themed club events. Partygoers will participate in a �gHottest Mami and Papi Contest,�h the �gUltimate Jeep Dating Game Contest,�h a salsa contest and a second-round �gUltimate Papi/Mami Contest.�h The final event in each market will be a �gCorazon Aventurero�h (Adventurous Heart) Speed Dating event. DJs will spin the hottest Latin music at each venue, highlighting salsa in New York and rock en espanol (in Spanish) in California, for example.

Jeep will feature and promote the Chasing Papi parties via a dedicated bilingual Web site at jeep.com/chasingpapi (site live on April 7). The Web site will feature movie trailers, information about the movie and Jeep vehicles, a calendar of the local events, party invitation sign-up and photos from the events as they unroll. The parties also will be promoted online with banner ads on Univision.com in Spanish, and AOL and Yahoo! in English and Spanish.

Bilingual street teams will cruise the streets in the eight markets in a Jeep vehicle wrapped with �gChasing Papi�h graphics before the club events to pass out bilingual flyers about the parties. They also will be on site at each club venue, distributing premiums and accompanied by a bilingual product specialist to answer questions. Each club venue will feature vehicle displays and Jeep cutouts.

Radio promos on select Spanish- and English-language youth-oriented stations in each of the markets also will support the Chasing Papi parties. Latina Magazine will post information about the parties on its Latina.com Happening section and in the Latina Go Guide section in May and June, and will send an e-mail blast to its subscribers.

GlobalHue, the Chrysler Group�fs multicultural marketing agency of record, developed the Jeep spots and promotional campaign.

i saw a rap video by jay-z "brush the dirt off your shoulders" i saw beautiful two girls getting out of coupe and not by using the doors either they came out from the windows, and then it shows a circle of cars with ferraris lambos hummers escaldes etc. and jayz rapping and the crossfire was in the middle of the circle i think that video came out in 04. so i guess it was hip to own a crossfire when they were worth 40-50k the rappers approved, and they like expensive rides. i wonder if they know their escaldes and lambo's and crossfire are now worth 1/4 of what they paid.
