Notice the grey 1986-1990 Mercedes-Benz [W124] in the background. ;)

I guess the Mercedes in the background just makes the cut seeing as this film takes place in 1986, but I did see a lot of 90's to 2000's cars in this movie in the background. Then again the budget was only 1.5 million on this movie, so I can't really criticize them there. It takes a lot of time and cash to cordon off large sets in a place like Brooklyn, and still more to wrangle period vehicles. Still, it kind of takes me out of the movie. Great film though. See it.

Isn't this from the Volvo DL/Volvo GL [244] era?

Yes, it's at least 1980-1985 by the mirrors and the air inlet.

Looks like the wide type of tail lights, might be an GLE? When was the wide tail lights introduced in the US for the different models?

Seems like it was white originally.
