They got most of the ones I would vote for: "Vanishing Point", "Blues Brothers", "American Graffiti", "Gumball Rally", and "Smokey and the Bandit".

I would add Spielberg's, "Duel". While the "stars" of the movie are only a red, 1971 Plymouth Valiant, and an ancient Peterbilt truck, their prominence in the film makes it a car movie.

 

[kevin2m4]

ah ive seen that one.

How the hell did cobra and Christine get that far down the list? They have some crappy ones ahead of them.

There was a movie done in about 91 called Catch Me if You Can, (no not the one with Leo). It wasn't very popular, but it had a lot of good races and some very nice cars in it. It's one of my favs.

Born to run. It's never mentioned when they list great car movies, I mean he races a 70 Fastback with a snorkel.

Dude, what about "The Wraith" with Charlie Sheen. Sure the movie sucks but it had some cool cars.

theres a movie that my friends and I can not remember the title to which is horrible but it is driving us nuts, so pleases help us. The plot is basically about a guy who the night before his wedding goes and picks up a lambo which is really a p.o.s, tape player does not work, hand gets caught in the sunroof, that type of stuff.

i kinda liked it when michael douglas ran down a lotus in a fox gt in basic instinct. the corvette in corvette summer was one of the ugliest cars ever. but i did like most of the movies on that list.

Thanks now I am trying to remember too I remember his fieance told him "no options" and he gits all of them including the 4-turbo V-12.

My pick would be Knight Rider 2000 .....pretty sure it was out in 88 or 89

 

[Darkwriter77]

Can't view the list here at work, but is Tarantino's "Deathproof" on there anywhere, by chance?

 

[85_SS_302_Coupe]

Man, so many great movies...i need to go shopping.



I actually learned to drive a stick by watching Days of Thunder....seriously. There's so many shots of the drivers working the clutch/gas/shifter that i got the gist of it from the movie and just hopped into my buddy's Chevette and went at it

 

[kevin2m4]

that just came out last week and i rented it (deathproof ) was a very cool movie, just like vanishing point and dirty harry crazy larry
