Car chase scenes

This should be the template for all car chase scenes. No dumb music or tense interior shots, just shots of the car & the road.

Way too short a video in my estimation.

So who was filming me on my way to work today?

-The Stig

That thing sounds like God's boner.

Would have been about 100 times better with about 100 fewer edits.

I blame that stupid cop show with the handheld cameras, the quick cuts, that redheaded idiot from CSI Miami and me vomiting after about 5 minutes of watching it.

Use this sound track.

The Jag just sounds a little flat to me. Maybe it needs to be uncorked some.

Sounds almost like it has a hole in the exhaust somewhere.

I didn't remember The Italian Job containing any canoes... maybe it was the nearly 2-hour long MINI commercial/remake?

What a badass car! Thank the heavens that they had a RAV-4 Camera Car. I think the exhaust note is too fart can for a premium machine though.

I think the whole thing is VERY boy-racerish. More than the Toyobarus even if you slap the body kits on them, or anything that ever came with a Type-R badge. Too much for my taste and I would have been happy with an FR-S 2 concept.

Good luck selling that to the middle-aged guys who can afford it, not many have THAT much of a midlife crisis

I would drive the hell out of that car if I could get a rear wing delete.

FTFY....there was music throughout, but it was kept down in the mix because it should augment - not replace - the sound of the car.

That Jag commercial is literally the Quantum on Solace opening without guns

Whatever i had the chance to drive the older (as in 2010 I think) xkr_s and it was incredible. It felt luxurious while it was ripping your face off :)

I can only imagine this one is better

Maybe this will show up.....

Is it just me or does the Jag look like a Buick?

I was thinking French Connection or Bullitt

That car sounds like a 60s six cylinder pickup with a Thrush muffler. That's not a praise.

I was "meh". I think Top Gear segments are just as good if not better.

Might I submit the following.

I actually still have the full DVD for that BMW promotion. I just can't think of any reason to chuck it.

In reply to GTwannaB:

My g/f was a BMWCCA member back then so she has it somewhere as well.

Meh, the sound of that car has nothing on this Pete. Imagine 5:08-5:13 in your rear view mirror coming home from work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Za-1E89j6cU
