"Bullitt", with Steve McQueen, best car chase ever filmed. Le Mans, nothing on earth sounds like a porsche V-12 at full song, flying down the Mulsanne straight. Except maybe, a V-12 ferrari. Not a car guy movie, but "On Any Sunday", was good too, for the dirt bike crowd. For you dirt track guys, check out "get back to dirt", great movie about dirt track racers at the devil's bowl down in Texas.
Brian, in the original, Kowalski, outran a helicopter in that challenger, and the white car burning at the end of the movie, was a Camaro, in the original.
