Actually, not solely did I take into consideration that, however I additionally requested our fantastic readers what automobiles they thought should be featured in a chase scene in a film or tv present.

My instance was the 2004 Chrysler ME 4-Twelve idea, a mid-engine supercar with a quad-turbo AMG V12 and a prime pace of 248 mph. It will’ve been perfected for an early-aughts sci-fi flick, however I feel even now the ME 4-Twelve would look proper at house in a contemporary film, particularly one with a futuristic setting. Whereas a few of you additionally picked supercars or different fashions suited to forward-thinking movies, there have been all kinds of nice solutions from minivans to Malaise-era boats. I’ve rounded up my favourite submissions, which you at the moment are studying.

Bear in mind the scene in Days Of Thunder the place the 2 NASCAR drivers are racing to dinner in rental automobiles? A Taurus and a Lumina, IIRC. And they’re THRASHED on the finish.

I would like to see an analogous scene utilizing first gen Chrysler minivans. Perhaps the situation is a few 80s soccer mothers are racing to get to the college pickup line, and they’re doing the total “rubbing is racing” by means of a suburban neighborhood to a close-by elementary college. They get there, and each of them are simply bashed and steaming.

I at all times had a imaginative and prescient of an epic automotive chase between the Evo and WRX, that begins within the metropolis bullet model, however then takes the chase into the woods on a path, then again to tarmac. We’ll say the Evo X vs the present gen WRX in a Rivals, cat/mouse sort of chase, with the massive dangerous after all being the Evo, I will let the Subaru win in the long run, however my lord it might be epic!

I am considering a brand new James Bond movie the place a nasty man (not essentially the kingpin), flees from Bond (possibly with stolen items or essential data?) in a…prepared?… A WRC rally automotive…after which Bond shoves one other driver out of their racecar to chase! Actually–so far as insane viewing pleasure with automobiles, what’s higher than WRC rally automobiles? The sounds, the tight roads full of boulders and bushes and cliff edges, JUMPS! that are not phony, in-car views of the drivers insanely sawing on the steering wheel, shifting, yanking on the hand brake? C’mon, Hollywood! That is what we ALL need! It’s, belief me!

A giant, fats supply truck like Amazon or UPS. The upright driving place, sliding doorways, cargo maintain stuffed with ???, giant profile and designed-in sturdiness of the chassis may…ship…a reasonably distinctive bang-em-up chase scene. The scene may finish with some comedian reduction: the victorious Amazon truck involves a screeching halt, then gently reverses away whereas making that synthetic duck noise.

How about 70’s period land yachts? Nothing higher than watching a ’76 Sedan DeVille try a nook at something over 30mph and never lose its tail… Perhaps I ought to watch extra outdated TV exhibits like The Rockford Recordsdata.

I second! Certainly one of my favourite films is “It is a Mad Mad Mad Mad World” primarily as a result of it is a bunch of outdated boats and vans tooling round the entire time haha. Among the finest demolition derbies I have been to, had a complete bunch of M-body Dodges. They have been hilarious! AND, unstoppable. The only survivors have been the M our bodies and one plastic Saturn.

The automotive will get concerned in tons of automotive hijinks. Driving by means of buildings like Deadly Weapon 4, taking out cops Blues Brothers model, and leveling a whole metropolis block with irresponsible driving, directed by Michael Bay. I will even spoil the ending: this occurs simply on the best way to the BUY HERE PAY HERE lot the dude picked it up from.
