This one will be a bit of a stretch. The film has multiple cars from the era the film portrays. Simply awesome collection. Hint: title is a city name.

Here's another obscure one, at least obscure for guys that don't watch Rom-coms.
Hint: no one was shot during filming. He only had a short part in this film. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1760036363.jpg |

Diane Lane is not hard to look at in this film. |
Softball this one. But can't resist. Great car and it was unexpected to me that the character owns/drives it. Shows just how great a Mercedes SL looks in its proper Euro spec trim with correct bumpers that US regulations didn't ruin.

It's also a lie. The implication is that it is a vintage Ferrari, but the reality is, it was filmed using a Mercedes 450SEL. But it's still thrilling, and fun.
From Wikipedia; "Shot in a single take, it is an example of cinéma vérité. The length of the film was limited by the short capacity of the 1000 foot 35mm film reel, and filmed from a (supposedly) gyro-stabilised camera mounted on the bumper of a Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9. A photo has surfaced that seems to reveal an Eclair cam-flex 35mm camera with a wide angle lens, and a typical "speed rail" hard mount—no gyros—on a Mercedes. This model, which could reach a top speed of 235 km/h (146 mph), was only available with a three-speed automatic transmission. Lelouch drove his own car himself and claimed that the top speed achieved was around 200 km/h in the 1.3 km avenue Foch.[1] Lelouch also claimed during a "making of" documentary that the soundtrack was dubbed with the sound of Lelouch's Ferrari 275GTB, which has the corresponding number of gears and a V12 sound that is quite distinct from that of any V8, including the 6.9 litre V8 of the alleged Mercedes camera car." |
