Firebird Esprit
Familiar to viewers of the show was Jim Rockford's gold Pontiac Firebird Esprit automobile, which Rockford always took through its paces. One oft-recurring element of the show was the famous "Jim Rockford turn-around" (also known as a J-turn or "Rockford", and commonly employed as an evasive driving technique taught to Secret Service agents driving for the President of the United States).[7][8] When trying to evade someone tailing him or when otherwise cornered, Rockford would shift into reverse, speed up backwards in a straight line and sharply turn his wheels. This maneuver would spin his car around 180 degrees and he would then quickly shift back into forward gear, speeding off to escape while maintaining a straight course the whole time. James Garner claimed in a Season One DVD interview that he performed this stunt himself for the duration of the series. The car's license number, 853OKG is currently assigned to a look-alike Firebird driven in and around the city of Riverside, California.

On May 13, 2010, the Rockford Files remake was canceled by NBC, although it is possible that there may still be a redevelopment of the concept.[16]
In April 2012, it was announced that Vince Vaughn will be producing & starring in a theatrical version of Rockford Files.[17]
At the start of every episode of The Rockford Files a message was left on Jim Rockford's answering machine before the beginning of the title sequence. The phone would ring two or three times before Rockford's answering machine began with the following greeting:
“ This is Jim Rockford. At the tone, leave your name and message. I'll get back to you. [Beep] ”
The message would then begin. When it had ended, the show's theme music would start. The composers Mike Post and Pete Carpenter released "The Rockford Files" as a single in 1975. It went to #10 on the Billboard Hot 100, remaining on the chart for 44 weeks and won a Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Arrangement.[1][2][3]
