I rented the DVD for Sex Drive and it was hilarious. A teen movie about a guy, barely out of high school, who went for a long drive to hook up with a girl he met online to lose his virginity. It’s a road trip movie! And Ian (Josh Zuckerman) took two of his buddies along with him, Felicia (Amanda Crew) and Lance (Clark Duke). Of course, they had plenty of mishaps along the way and one of their rescuers was Ezekiel, an Amish mechanic played by Seth Green. Yes, that’s an Amish who can fix cars. The small scenes with Ezekiel were worth watching alone. Seth Green’s sardonic delivery of a perceived somber and serious character really made me chuckle.

A road trip movie is not complete without a car. In Sex Drive, the car was an orange 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge. In fact, the car was constantly referred to simply as “The Judge” by it’s owner Rex (James Mardsen), Ian’s bullying older brother. There were quite a lot of scenes with the GTO in action. It raced a green Mitsubishi Eclipse in an open stretch of highway. Drove through a patch of corn field as the three teenagers were trying to escape from a vengeful boyfriend. It ended up jumping onto a highway from the cornfield. It received a large dent as the vengeful boyfriend eventually caught up to Ian, Lance, and Felicia towards the end of the movie and rammed The Judge with his Ford F-150. Here’s a movie review by UltimateGTO.com.
I referred to the Pontiac GTO Judge in a previous post. My best friend’s father was a mechanic and Shell station owner while we were growing up. He fixed cars and sold them, but sometimes used them first. I thought one of the cars was GTO but I couldn’t remember the year and model. But it was blue and could have been a Judge.
The 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge is a beautiful car indeed. We can see that in the movie. Upon seeing the decal “The Judge”, I thought that was part of the joke. But it’s not. Stock cars came decorated with the decals on the front fenders.
GTOs were seriously built for speed and power. Standard engine package was a 366 hp, Ram Air III induction, 400 cubic inch V8. There was an option to upgrade to a 370 horsepower, Ram Air IV. Only 6,725 of these babies were made.
