Several of the vehicles at the auto show scene are incorrect for the 1978 model year. For instance, the Cadillac Eldorado convertible went out of production for 1976 (which GM promoted heavily). And, although the Avanti was still available as a limited production specialty car, it would not be positioned with major manufacturers like GM, Ford, and Chrysler.
