Wouldn’t we ALL love to be that guy. Or turned into a phrase, “Fuckin’ A, man. Fuckin’ A.”
I drive a Kia FFS. What happened to 20’s wanted a blinging car guy that used to be me?
Gah, I can’t think of a better time to bump that blast from the past up-page and out of sight, so I shall ask you guys a very important question! In what movie will you see this at the 40:40?

Hmm, “regon”. Wonder if that first letter in an ‘O’?
Did you guys know that there’s a IMDB for cars?

All I’ve learned so far is that there are a shitload of Volvos in movies and TV shows.

It is, and like everything else is a forgery of actual names. There is no Oregon Gazette, and Willett County does not exist. But this looks to be taking place in pseudo-Corvalis/ Eugene. Definitively not Portland, but the Willamette Valley mid sized cities.
Since that is where the Gazette is from.
As for the film? No clue. I am certain based on what is available I could pinpoint it with some googlefu, but this is almost certainly some horror film I have never seen.
And yeah, 2007 is post blue plates, so you had it right with those being Oregon plates.
Case 39, the film where Ian McShane let me down, yet again.

Props. The Palm trees were the giveaway.

Cool frame. I like how 40 minutes in we get a little bit of exposition. Obviously Insane couple who tried to kill someone are people we should be aware of. DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNN.
It is indeed Case 39! I picked it to take up where @Soren_Hoglund’s Midnight Meat Train left off: Bradley Cooper’s career before The Hangover. I like Case 39 because it had been obvious since Terry Gilliam’s Tideland that Jodelle Ferland was an incredibly gifted child actor for her ability to let loose. Case 39 is sadly too dumb to give her much to work with (see Orphan with Isabelle Fuhrman for a far better “evil child” script and performance, not to mention a really sharp job from director Jaume Collet-Serra). But I love this scene between Ferland and Cooper:
There. You’ve seen the best part of Case 39. Now you don’t need to watch it. You’re welcome.
That got a laugh out loud from me! Here he is in the 60:60, being interviewed from the visitor’s room of insanity prison. Rene Zellweger is getting wise to the fact that something’s not right with her newly adopted evil kid, Lilith!
Here’s Cynthia Stevenson, giving Renee Zellweger further evidence that there’s something not right with her newly adopted evil kid, Lilith!
And, finally, here’s Renee Zellweger’s Volvo with the Oregon license plate – fake, since the movie was shot in Vancouver – driving into a river in a last ditch effort to kill her newly adopted evil kid, Lilith, about whom there’s something not right.
Over to Ian McShane completionist @Navaronegun!

Cool last frame as well. This sounds vaguely familiar. I may have seen it.
It’s like being a Dolphins fan (translation for the sports impaired - you’ve had amazing highs once or twice, but otherwise are amazed at the consistent idiocy of choices made, dooming success despite undeniable talent).
New frames in 2 to 3 hours as I try to be considerate of those on the Left Coast and give them a shot.

Ian McShane’s career peaked with Lovejoy, and I will take no correspondence on the matter.
In Case 39, an evil Doberman Pinscher sneaks into Ian McShane’s car and kills him. It’s a slightly less ignoble death than Bradley Cooper’s. Bradley Cooper get killed by CG bees.

Is it the recent Chet Baker biopic with the always underrated Ethan Hawke?
Tibbsy, you’ve been playing a long time and know you gotta name a film.

Damn. I was actually feeling pretty good about that guoss.
