Cool movie

Initial D was one hell of a movie. Amazing driving on Mt. Akina.
After that I started liking the Corolla 86 so much.
Even the soundtrack in the movie was pretty good.

You do get Vin Diesel in a special appearance in Tokyo Drift.
Loved the Mustang drifting during the final race. That was some cool sh**.
Also some of the racing scenes in heavy traffic were awesome.

Saw disneys CARS last night....really liked it...

Better than TOKYO DRIFT...........there's more drifting in it...and a better STORY!!!!

car movies:
- itallian job
- gone in 60 secs
- fast and furious series( even thogh there is a pointless story line, the cars are aw3esome)
- the Taxi series - same comment as above. also, after this i started really liking peguot. (however you spell that)

in terms of driving, you should watch this movie called C'est une randezvous. its frehcn flick by claude lelouch. brilliant and stunning driving in a1976 ferrari across paris.
story goes that Claude shot the film without permission and during its premier, the cops arrested him for rash driving.

My new fav: Tokyo Drift

i think that RONIN with Robert de niro has got some of the wildest driving especially the chick in the BMW being chased by de Niro in a CITROEN,,
then also the TRANSPORTER series with Jason Statham in a BMW and an AUDI respectively,,then ofcourse the CANNONBALL run series,,in that order,, just as an aside what cars are chosen for intense action movies,,usually a GERMAN high end car ,,they are the best
