To keep their struggling used-car dealership from closing, salesmen Sid (Dan Harlan) and Bob (Dan Leis) agree to let a vintage 1963 Pontiac LeMans sit on their lot for two days, in return for $250,000. Warned that the vehicle has been associated with many deaths already, Sid and Bob are soon pursued by hit man Mr. Reich (Mark S. Allen) and FBI agent Jared (Hugh McCord), among others. As violence surrounds them, Sid talks his partner into stealing the car for a $500,000 ransom.
