Default XJ's in movies.

I never really noticed until I got my own but, there are a crap load of XJ's shown in movies of all types.

The part that really burns my butt though, is that most of them end up getting crashed, blown up, flattened or otherwise mangled, at some point during the movie. Sometimes it makes me just want to cry, especially when I see a REALLY nice one get messed up and I think............."Damn, I would love to have that one!".
