Re: Car porn C'etait un Rendezvous The whole thing (9 mins) is actually posted online here. Here's some of the story behind it.Quote: On an August morning in 1978, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch mounted a gyro-stabilized camera to the bumper of a Ferrari 275 GTB and had a friend, a professional Formula 1 racer*, drive at breakneck speed through the heart of Paris. The film was limited for technical reasons to 10 minutes; the course was from Porte Dauphine, through the Louvre, to the Basilica of Sacre Coeur.
No streets were closed, for Lelouch was unable to obtain a permit.
The driver completed the course in about 9 minutes, reaching nearly 140 MPH in some stretches. The footage reveals him running real red lights, nearly hitting real pedestrians, and driving the wrong way up real one-way streets.
Upon showing the film in public for the first time, Lelouch was arrested. He has never revealed the identity of the driver, and the film went underground until a DVD release a few years ago. *A few corrections discovered later on: Lelouch was driving his own Mercedes and the Ferrari 275 GTB sound was dubbed later.

Re: Car porn Wow...someone actually mentioned Le Mans (thanks Lalo). I really like that movie. "A lot of people go through life doing things badly. Racing’s important to men who do it well. When you’re racing, it... it’s life. Anything that happens before or after... is just waiting." Here is another racing movie that I like:  BMW had some shorts a few years ago. Those were pretty entertaining.

Re: Car porn "call it a yard and you've got an automobile race motherfucker!"
TLB is the best car movie ever for sure. There are plenty of good other car movies but none of them really feature the car like in two lane.
Oh and Warren Oates/GTO is hysterical and makes up for the lifeless performances by James Taylor and Dennis Wilson (which I think
actually kind of works anyway).

Same here - I was going to suggest the same movie. I thought that the movie was pretty underrated. Transporter (with Jason Stratham) had some good car chases, if I recall correctly (although the movie itself sucked). But then again, maybe I'm just thinking of a BMW promo that was released just prior to the movie that featured some (if not all or more) of the car chases. I think I still have that DVD somewhere. Although Mad Max 3 was terrible (although I must admit I like that Tina Turner song in the flick), it gave me one of my favorite names: MASTER BLASTER!! Remember, "Master Blaster rules Bartertown."

Re: Car porn If I remember right they filmed those scenes with Formula 1 drivers doing all the chase sequences.
Also Jackie Chan's Thunderbolt is a pretty good car flick too, if you like Mitsubishi and drifting.

Re: Car porn They did use a Formula One driver for some of the stunt driving (Jean-Pierre Jarier), but the actor who played Larry (Skipp Sudduth) insisted on doing all of his own driving. Since Sudduth is a stunt driver and amateur auto racer, John Frankenheimer let him, telling him "I don't wanna see any brake lights."

Re: Car porn Jackie Chan movies make me cringe. Seeing an FTO and an Evo being squeezed into tight alleys and having the walls remove the paint from the body...aargh (mainly cause I've always wanted an Evo). BMW shorts with Clive Owen as The Hire. Here's one of the funnier ones: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nK87YLmagt4

Re: Car porn I liked the BMW short that included James Brown and Gary Oldman as Lucifer.
