from the famous 'karma police' video by Radiohead...
must be something American from 70's ..

anyone can ID for sure? I can't see the logo on the hood well..
the car is not shown from outside I think...

70-72 Lincoln. Hard to tell w/o seeing the front. The fenders have a "ridge" along the top.

Love the flex when it takes off at :30 seconds in.

That's the last of the big Chrysler New Yorkers. Mid '70s.

Here's a coupe, the one in the video is a 4-door hardtop.

Looks like a 1974 Pontiac Catalina to me.

Ya you may be correct. Hood ornament looks correct It's definatly not a GM. Hood lines are wrong.

As Pottymouth said, it is a '74-'78 Chrysler New Yorker. My dad had one as well as a '74 Pontiac Catalina and it is definitely the Chrysler.

I think he is right the more I look at it.

Wikipedia says

The video starts with the camera, an unseen driver, looking at the empty back seat of a 1976 Chrysler New Yorker at night.
