Of course Bullitt for the cars and the vintage SF scenery but this one also has all you can hope for in a car chase scene -

Yeah, Ronin is hard to beat. Might just be the all around best car movie ever made.

I grew up near SFO, so I dig Bullitt too, although the Mopar should've triumphed over the Mustang.

Hands down the absolute best. WAY better then ANY modern day mostly computer generated chase scene. That Charger and Mustang were actually DRIVEN on the streets of San Fran. No computer crap there.

Bullitt is #1 but the 7 ups chase is #2

Nobody mentioned "Duel"? The whole movie is a chase scene. And an A-body gets blowed up.....

No "computer generated chase scene" in Ronin:

"Although action sequences are often shot by a second unit director, Frankenheimer did all these himself, and sometimes rode along. While he was aware of the many innovations in digital special effects since then, he elected to film all these sequences live, to obtain the maximum level of authenticity. To further this, many of the high-speed shots have the actual actors in the cars. Skipp Sudduth did nearly all of his own driving, while other cars were right hand drive models with stunt drivers driving - crashes were handled by a stuntman." -American Cinematographer Magazine

Damn, I've never seen "The Seven Ups" before. Nice one, Pops!

An honorable mention goes to "The Hidden"- the driver of the Ferrari is host to an alien that makes him rob banks, steal fast cars, and listen to heavy metal.

"To live and die in LA" and "The French Connectio" are definitely up there.

 

[pabster]

You're right- this one has it's moments... although I wish they'd been driving cooler cars...

Also worth putting into the mix...

The Black 68 Charger & Green 68 Mustang in Bullitt is #1 that's for sure, Gone in 60 Seconds {cheesy remake, but I liked it}, Dirty Mary Crazy Larry, The French Connection, those are my top 4 car chase scenes.... A couple of my choices are for obvious reasons they involve Chargers/Mopars...

 

[Ron 73]

My choice would be crazy Larry dirty Mary as number one, 2nd The Vanishing, Challenger and one great tear bringing 68 Charger when it was wreaked.

I love the Mad Max chase but of course this youngster has to mention Death Proof. I can't seem to find the DP chase on youtube though.
