Favorite Car scene in a movie...

The final scene of the last episode of Miami Vice:

Sonny to Rico: "Can I offer you a ride to the airport...in my stolen car."

And off he went in the Testarossa, that he was going to keep, even after having left the force.

 

Gone in 60 seconds was not done in CGI, I know that most of the driven scenes were tho.

 

Nice!

 

Im trying to forget it........

 

1. The French Connection. Outta control stunts including the famous unintended person-with-shopping-cart-walking-into-60mph-stunt scene.

2. The Blues Brothers. 120 mph on Lower Wacker Drive.

 

Well maybe not but there was no way that GT500 was running after that huge jump

My point is a real life chase scene is much more impressive to me then something that happens with five stunt cars and assorted cut-a-ways.

but hey - whatever floats your boat...

 

oh baby she is looking mighty fine in that scene

my fav all time scene is bullitt though

no silly music, no 'punk dudes' - just real men going nuts in cars

 

Fair enough after the jump that would not have been running, however the chase through downtown and in the drainage ditch wasn't bad.

 

The movie was totally forgettable, but I really liked the chase!

 

no CGI crap should be on this list, only REAL cars!

 

The French Connection

 

To live and die in LA freeway chase scene, black 308 in the movie as well

Dirty mary crazy larry

No mans land, 911 scenes

 

Beverly hills cop 2- Ferrari 328gts

 

Forgot about Dirty Mary Crazy Larry.

 

The opening scene to the movie Speed Zone where it starts off showing the nice rearend of the Countach while running from police.

The second is again Cannonball part at the begining with the black Countach running away from police. But my favorite part is when he dusted the cop car from a roll.


Thats the main reason why I bought both movies of course i love the Countach. Sorry its not a Ferrari but there's plentfull Ferraris in movies and finding a Lamborghini in flims is really rare let alone driving at there best.

 

Does anyone remember the Ferrari belonging to Clifton Webb in 'Boy on a Dolphin' from 1957? No car chases, but a completely unexpected appearance by a beautiful Ferrari 250GT Boano.

 

The Ferrari scene (T Cab I think) in "Scent of a Woman" with Al Pacino was fun, as he was driving blind.

 

Thanks for the precision, Dave. I was going by fond memory!

 

The Swiss Conspiracy (1977) available from Netflix. David Jannsen drives what I believe is the 1969 Paris Auto Salon PF show car, it has the targa
rollhoop. Though the Paris car obviously had the plexiglass front end the car
Jannsen drives has pop-up headlamps, note the headlamp door fit is very poor. I read somewhere that the Paris car had been retrofitted with pop-ups early on in it's life...

Also note that is some shots the LH vent latch is attached, and on others it has fallen off! Senta Berger looks rather tasty....

There is an interesting website that is devoted to cars in movies:

I am looking for the above movie, it is a story about an English team racing in the Mille Miglia. Please PM me if anyone has a lead on a copy.

Grazie!

 

The scene begins at 2:45.

Enjoy!

The Goldeneye scene was just awesome...amazing cars, hot girl, and 007. Not to mention, it looks great when she spins out of control.

 

Ferris Bueller's Day Off when the two garage attendents drive over the rise and the 250 California Spyder goes airborn! I cried when they destroyed that classic!
