V-Red on Desperate Housewives (10-12)

One of the characters on "Desperate Housewives" has a Velocity Red RX-8. The redhead's (Brie) son is dusting it off near the end of the episode and Gabrielle threatens to rear-end it if she doesn't get some money she believes he owes her for a lemon he sold her. No full shots, just one from the front showing the driver's side and another from the side showing the rear half. The rims look like the 2009 rims and both shots carefully omit any branding logos.

I was watching that with my fiance and the first thing I noticed was the rotor shaped headrest insert. I was starting to cringe when I thought it would get rear ended.

When we visit Universal Studios last time, we passed through the set on the Tram tour and I saw that VR 8 on their set along w/ the convertible 350z roadster...

It is quite the variety of cars on that show. There have been a lot of Nissans on the show before: Titan, Maxima, 350Z, etc.

I yelled out loud "no way!" when I saw Andrew (Bree's son) dusting off the car...

Sweet!
