Are your favourite films car orientated or is there one specific film that you just love watching? I've lost count of how many times I've seen American Graffitti, this was very influential in me buying my ''55 Chevys :lol: . If not car related, I tend to go for any of the action type films, my favourite lately was the Dark Knight. Heath Ledger played a brillaint Joker. Just a great shame he passed away as he did.

Surprised no one has chirped in with Smokey and the Bandit, not 2 or 3! Cannonball run... a must for anyone who appreciates cars. I have watched both 70 or 80 times a piece.
What else... Blues brothers always makes a welcome return now and again. Most recently Kung fu panda had me in stitches :-)

I love my old car moves, Vanishing Point, Bullitt, Two Lan Blacktop, Covoy, Smokey & the Bandit etc.
Recently I watched Gran Torino, but found very little car action, but one truly amazing story and some superb acting by the old man Clint Eastwood. Superb.

If it hasn't got a car in it, it has to have a great story, Leon, Shawshank Redemption, Gran Torino. I have watched Leon about 1000000000 times!!!!

Bullitt, Two Lane Blacktop, American Graffitti (favourite), Ronin (good car chase). Gone in 60 Seconds is not bad (seen them both).

Bond films often have a good car chase and fancy cars to ogle. I'll watch anything from the 70s just to see the cars of that era. Gone in 60 seconds is a more recent car film that I quite enjoyed.

Forgot to mention... my missus watches the Transformers movie over and over because the Camaro is lovely, however when it changes to the new model... we think about watching the beginning part again :-)
Is it wrong, but i love the rusty old 79 rather than the new one :-)
