Hot Rod magazine has just released its list of the Top 40 Car Movies of all time, and it has opened the list up for you to vote on.
Although many of the films on the list are obvious choices (American Graffiti, Bullitt, Le Mans), some of their selections are a bit more obscure. The editors go out of their way to explain that their criteria was biased towards hot rods, but other than that, the only caveat was that the films had to be currently available on DVD and that they were originally released in theaters.

Either read the criteria :

"This is the ultimate British car movie with Minis doing amazing stunts and all the blokes talking in indecipherable accents as they plan and execute a gold robbery in Turin. Could it be better? Yeah, they could have been driving Camaros. "


LOL

Not happy with their selections, too many good ones misisng from 80-2000.
Appreciate they are baised towards HotRods, but they have included Ronin (of course) which has no hot rods but as pointed out where is Back to the Future?  Or Ferris Buellers Day Off maybe?  etct etc

Roadkill

Useless piece of info - The '55 Chevy used in "Two lane blacktop" was the SAME car used in "American Graffitti".

Can't find the article, now . . . bugger - I'll look for it . . .

Quoting: HotRod
35> Gone In Sixty Seconds (2000)
Director: Dominic Sena
Star: '67 Mustang
People: Nicolas Cage, Angelina Jolie

Why: The climactic chase is ruined--ruined--by lousy computer graphics during the big jump. But there are people who love this remake. How else to explain all the clones of Eleanor, the faked-up Shelby Mustang?


The car used in the movie was a clone itself... They built it from scratch for the film...
