If you have ever seen the 1974 version of the movie GONE IN 60 SECONDS, then you know that the original "ELEANOR" was a yellow 73 MACH 1. **EDIT** Heres a pic from the movie.

While the 74 version is pretty bad acting wise, its still better than the one from 2000. .

Think JADA will do a yellow one. :thumbsup:

I like both movies equally but I think the second and third ones weren't necessary and weren't very good at all. I'm not much of a fan of that casting either. Is it actually supposed to be an Eleanor copy? If so, the black with gold striping is pretty lame.

The 1974 version, 2, and Junkman were all awesome. The 2000 version isn't bad, but I prefer the odler ones.

No its just a BTM sneek peak. But I presume JADA will release a yellow one. They did a 1/24 67 Mustang Shelby in the same color as the "ELEANOR" from the 2000 film.
