If you know of any M-bodies that have appeared on TV or movies, send me an e-mail and I will add it to the list.
One of TNN's new Wednesday night shows. A blue Diplomat/Gran Fury gets wrecked in the first episode and shows up in the commercials for the show afterwards.

Vampire movie based from a Stephen King story. Has a long chase sequence between a Sheriff's Department Diplomat and a shape shifting Trans-Am.
This movie has M-bodies in a familar role: police cars.
This movie has M-bodies galore. Many Diplomats, Gran Furies, and LeBarons.
The movie "Thunderheart" (also a very good movie) I *think* has a few Dippys in a major chase scene towards the end, and possibly one used by Val Kilmer at times during the middle of the movie.
Several M-bodies and R-body Plymouths. Violent; not for the faint of heart in some scenes. The chase sequence alone is worth renting it, even if the cop-car of choice is a Chevy.
