Storyline

- TriviaElvis' red sports car in the film is a one-of-a-kind 1959 Chevrolet Corvette XP-87 Stingray concept car. Originally silver in color, this car was the design inspiration for the "C2" generation of Corvettes (1963 - 1967), which took the name "Stingray" from this vehicle. The Stingray was modified for the film (in addition to the red paint, a hood scoop was added). Since filming, the car has been restored to its original condition and color, and is a museum piece worth several million dollars.

Bartender: [Salacious chuckling, then a straight face] Forget it. I got six kids already, more I don't need, right?
James J. Jamison III: Right. How about something in flannel?
