HI!
im not a fan of the band Hoobastank,
but they had a huge (i'll admit catchy) hit single with "the reason"... and i believe a monte SS is in the video.

HAPPY FRIDAY!

good call! never noticed that. i love that band (they're AMAZING live) but i got so sick of that song. the video is pretty cool though. i like videos with cool storylines. and they even continued the story into their next video (don't remember what it was though).

they should have a "no montes were harmed in the making of this video" disclaimer

No one has posted my favorite yet (this is admittedly what made me want a MC even though it was in only about 10 seconds of the movie)

Collateral, the car driven by the Detective played by Mark Ruffalo

Wow. Nice finds guys.

Hoobastank was pretty good, I saw them live at Purdue for free with Lost Prophets. Awesome show!! Too bad both bands have kind of disappeared.

off the thread but...

i think i heard a new lost prophets song the other day. i love them. very different and unique sound.

i had seen hoobastank with story of the year, POD, Adema and Linkin Park a couple years ago. i won the tix on the radio and had backstage passes to meet SOTY, but you had to go back there after their set. they played first and hoobastank was right after them, and i didn't want to miss them so i skipped out on the meet and greet. oddly enough the radio station gave me an 8x10 of the band that they'd signed for me "To Jamie, Sorry we missed you!" and they all signed it. that was pretty cool. i still have that up in my room. that show was unbelieveable though.

here is a trunk monkey commercial with a monte. I have posted this one while back.

Already mentioned but
My two fav monte appearances are the Tokyo Drift beginning. the race with the viper was epic. didn't care much for the rest of the movie though
First Gen Monte with a 572 big block with slicks on all fours SICK.

Second is the denzel low rider in training and I don't like low riders that much.
