I know some of these are repeats, but they're all the ones I can think of.
Homeward Bound
Gone in 60 Seconds
Goonies
Cast Away
- the 97+ does fit. Movie was made in '01. 4 years prior (time table in the movie) = 1997. Besides, 97's started being made in October of '96 anyway.
Taken
Mothman Prophecies
Scream
Man on Fire
Ronin
Back to the Future
- scene where the woman goes up to Marty and says, "Save the clock tower!", it's in the background. I watched it the other day and happened to see it.
Dumb and Dumber - the gas station scene with the skis on top of it.

What can I say, I'm addicted to XJ's and see 'em everywhere.

Another one that's not a movie. I've seen them destroy at least 4 xj's on different mythbuster episodes.

2012 - the car that doesn't start at the beginning of the film to provide an excuse for the main character to drive around in his bosses limo is an XJ.

I was quite annoyed
