Own an Automotive Piece of Hollywood Movie Magic and Drive Off with a Classic Muscle Car from the 1960s All While Supporting Kids in Public Schools

Auction Cause and DonorsChoose.org have teamed up to offer an amazing opportunity to own the 1967 Pontiac Firebird seen in the 2003 blockbuster, The Matrix Reloaded.

Directed by Andy Wachowski, the film Matrix Reloaded is the second part of the exciting futuristic trilogy where Neo (Keanu Reeves), "the chosen one," has been leading the efforts in the war against man and machine.

"Niobe's (Jada Pinkett Smith) muscle car was cast to contrast Morpheus' (Laurence Fishburne) boxy 'suicide door' Lincoln and its principle scenes took place in our ode to My Dinner with Andre, the car chase scene. Originally there were three stunt cars used in the filming of Reloaded, two of which were totaled," says Andy Wachowski. "This is a priceless opportunity to own a piece of cinematic history and provide much needed resources for classrooms on DonorsChoose.org."
