C'etait un Rendezvous

I know, he's not driving a Healey but this has to be one the best cult driving movies of all time. I tried to retrace the drive when in Paris in the early 90's, I think I got it about half right. The whole time, I could believe the speed he carried and all the red lights that were ran. The V-12 Ferrari sound pretty sweet.

Bet that woke Paris up!
They probably banned him for life after that.
If you like the sound of garage queens take a look at this one

As the article states, the Ferrari sound in Rendezvous was dubbed. The driven car was actually a Mercedes 450 SEL, which doesn't take away from the incredible driving. There's always been some question as to who the driver was, whether it was Lelouch or an F1 driver. And if you'd like another bubble burst, the rumor is that some of the exhaust sounds of the Mustang in Bullitt were actually dubbed from a Ford GT40.
