Not the best or your favorites, but some that sort of tried, but didn't quite get there ...

A. John Wayne and a '70 Trans Am (nicknamed the "Green Hornet") in Seattle in "McQ", the other “cop in a sporty green car chases bad guys around a West Coast city” movie:

B. "Challenge". Think, "Like "Walking Tall" (1973) with a Pantera.

C. Moonrunners. The movie that became "The Dukes of Hazzard" TV show - and not a Charger in sight.

Got more?

I remember being really disturbed by that scene. I dug the car, though.
