Ever seen the legend of speed 2? it's a pretty good as a movie, and as a car thing. its not all panzy like what we go here in the US, too fast and too stupid. The action was cool, the story was kinda typical, but was all enjoyable.
What other movies are out there like this? I know there is one with jackie chan and the GTO. What else!!

I was hoping that it would be on a torrent site, but all the sites are offline.

it's about a drug dealer/thief who drives a silvia with the movie set in australia...the car is a large part of the movie, but the script and the plot are shitty...i picked it up at Hollywood video for $2...

the original Italian Job was damn good some crazy ass driving scenes
I saw Legend of Speed 2. It rather sucked in terms of realism. And the plot follows the usual martial arts movie story line. Guy loses, goes off to learn new techniques and get better, comes back and beats the bad guy... It also played a lot on the Evo vs WRX rivalry as the good guy has an Evo and the bad guy drives a WRX and his whole group has Subarus.
Too bad, the movie had some potential.

Legend of speed is kind of blehhh. BTW, that Japanese movie with Tsuchiya in it, you know, the one with the Black R33 skyline. Don't buy it. Sucks major balls.

I like the original Gone in 60 Seconds. Not the one with Nicholas Cage.

Anyone seen RPM? I don't really like the storyline (but my family did...iono), but there were nice cars.

Best scene is where he learns to drift in a dirt field with this new r32... then beats Tsuchiya on the track. :rofl:
The original gone in 60 seconds was sweet, just because the car chase was more than two thirds the movie.

Has anyone seen the movie highway-speedway, or freeway-speedway (whatever it's called). It's a mid 80's Japanese racer movie. It's kinda cool to see what their scene was like back then. The main guy, by the end of the movie is drivin a R31 skyline, and the "arch rival" drives a 280Z.

Bullitt is fantastic. So is LeMans. If you want to see some old school muscle with a really weird 70s drug induced plot check out Two Lane Blacktop. Two guys drive around in a 55 chevy (tubbed, aluminum interior, flip up fiberglass front end, big block power) picking up races in every town they come to.

The Wraith was a cool movie with a crazy ass car with some sort of alien engine..
description: "A marauding gang of car-racing delinquents terrorize the residents of a small town, until a mysterious, otherworldly stranger arrives to challenge the ruthless roadsters"
I recommend it!
Christine was a crazy car movie too..

I own that movie. Charlie Sheen at his best.
The awe inspiring Touge with Corvettes and Daytona's. I like the "alien" car with dodge written all over it.
Good times.
