I liked the car chase in "Ronin", which had a 406 D8 V6 in it.

Also, not quite a car chase, but I liked the scene in GoldenEye when Bond runs amok in St. Petersburg driving a T-55 tank.

EDIT: also, pretty much all of the original "Blues Brothers" film, which held the record for "number of cars destroyed during the making of a film" for many years

ronin would be one of my favourite the car scenes just seem a bit more tense. Blues brothers is all right, but is plagued with being a musical, i was severly dissapointed when i watched it for the first time because i absolutley loathe all musicals so when i wached it i kept fast forwarding to the chases, they were good the rest i couldnt watch.

Bourne Identity - amazing what Matt Damon (or should I say his stunt double) was managing to do with a Mini in a busy European town centre while still reading the map.

'Gone in 60 seconds' is probably my favourite. 'The Transporter' films have some great chase scenes too, especially the first one were the 5 series is up against the 607 :D

a moment for correction making is possible, its a 7 series. Also very good stuff, especially as its all happening very fast, did that man actually do the driving or get a stunt double?

Also worth noting that it is probably one of an extremely small amount (if any) of E38 7 Series with a manual gearbox too. Seen a couple of E32s at auctions, Ebay etc, but never seen an E38 manual apart from his one.
