Best: Gone in 60 seconds, Ronin and the Bourne Identity (good chases)
Worst: DRIVEN!

Generally, I agree with the choices, but I also liked:
Its a Mad Mad Mad Mad World (early '60's camp)

Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. (the lunatic in the big Mopar with a shotgun and a trunkful of rabbits was classic.)

Hard to take it seriously, but I still like Johnny Dark.

Duh how could I forget MAD MAX and ROAD WARRIOR.

I actually haven't watched too many movies with car racing in it. It's quite hard to find a good one, but I liked Bullitt's race scene, and I have memories of car racing in my mind, but can't pinpoint the movie they were in.

I know the obvious stupid ones were the fast and furious movies, both of them were just downright stupid and horrible. And did someone actually mention redline? I can't believe someone watched that, I think that's the one movie I laugh at everytime I see the boxcover at my local blockbuster.

I remember there was a movie called "Back in Business" or something like that, with a race between a Saleen Mustang and a Shelby Cobra. Cool cars, but not a really good movie. Also, Gone in 60 Seconds kind of annoys me, because the movie itself was pretty bad, but everyone boasts it as some kind of godlike movie, and it annoys me, it's VERY overrated. Some of the cars were cool, but the car chases was a bit too unrealistic for me, and the story, script and acting was pretty bad.

There was a scene in a Michael Douglas movie, I believe, like primal instinct, or fatal attraction or something like that, that involved a foxchassis Mustang GT. They crashed the Mustang, but I just liked it because they represented my Mustang in a movie.

What's the movie with the primer grey shoebox chevy that's built to the hilt, and has two guys just driving around on a mission?

Vanishing Point is a classic.
The last race (short film) was good.
The BMW films that I have seen have been pretty good.

The Mischief videos are alright the first couple times..

Other than that.. I can't think of anything else worth mentioning.

Heh, the original Mad Max was pretty cool.

I think it was called Two Lane Black Top or something like that. It's the same shoebox Chevy used in American Graffiti. I think they spent more money on pot for the cast than anything else when they made it.

well FnF was a stupid ass movie, but i liked the cars and the racing, the movie is better to watch if mute it. . .lol
gone ins 60 seconds was pretty good, but horrible acting.

Yea, that's it! I just love hearing that car run..

From what I heard about 2F2F (I haven't seen it, and don't want to), the only part that I MIGHT like is the part when the Camaro and Charger (GTO? forgot what my friend told me now), was racing the main characters, the main characters and their sprayed Jap cars were getting pwned for the most part, and they had to almost cheat to win.

Yeah, what happened was the two main people driving a Lancer Evo 7 and an Eclipse Spyder were racing two guys for pink slips. The other two guys had a Yenko Camaro and a Challenger RT with a Hemi. The only way they won was by using the nitrous and playing chicken. It was, by far, the best scene in the movie.

i thought it was just a regular base POS lancer, and not an evo..
