What is your favorite auto movie or video?
#17
Sometimes a movie can influence your love of automobiles, driving and sports cars. So what movie or video is your favorite? I love the Bond films of course, but my all time favorite is a French film called C’etait un Rendezvous by Claude Lelouch where in the early morning he drives a Ferrari 275 GTB across Paris all out.
It is a short film, only around 9 minutes long but definitely worth a look. Go to YouTube and watch the highest quality version you can find, and make sure you turn the volume way up! The sound is intoxicating! I have a copy on DVD so I don’t have a link to share.
Now tell me me your favorite so I can watch it and maybe find a new favorite!
Bored on a Sunday night.

No love for the Blue Brothers?
For a 3min video, this one was and still is one of my all time favorites even tho it's grainy by todays standards. Inspired me when I was making my own racing videos (SCCA rally and NASA CMC).
I was big into NASCAR a few years after that came out. Hated the continuity errors. Close up of dirty bashed up cars swerving, next shot was wide, clean cars 'real' racing. I thought Talladega Nights was 10x better in that aspect. Though they all have the "want to go faster? Just SHIFT!" nonsense.

How about the Charlie Sheen movie "The Wraith" VelocityAPs DB9 SuperSport exhaust has a low end tone almost just like the Wraith sound.
Another Charlie Sheen Movie about 911's being stolen was "No Mans Land"

For me it has to be, of course, Cannonball Run, as it's autobiographical since I drove in the original Cannonball race on which the film was based. Burt Reynolds played my character! By the way, the real race was way more exciting than the movie.

Best car movie, ever...
All those are decent, but without a doubt, the best car movie ever filmed is: Gone In 60 Seconds
Not the lame Nick Cage knockoff, the real, original movie. Written, directed and starred in by the infamous H.B. Halicki.
The cast of significant cars involved has never been matched, not even close.
