Porsche Crest What was the movie where they go around Stealing Porsches?

I saw it when I was a kid, and for some reason I started thinking about it again.

I think it is about some repo men, maybe, or just thieves, but the whole movie they are running around stealing porsches.

I remember one line in the movie where they are about to steal a Ferrari, and the one guy says "Don't waste your time with that Itallian crap, stick to the good stuff".

Charlie Sheen may or may not be in it.


Any ideas?

Nope. Only good after a case of beer. Worth seeing for a laugh...

Le Mans with Steve McQueen on DVD is so much more worth your time...

I believe Charlie Sheen said (about the Ferrari):

"Naa... Italian trash... Besides I only steal Porsches"

Then they go across the street and stesl a black 930 slantnose which actually was owned by KevinP73 of this board at that time.
That car had been stolen a few years ago in real life too!

Nice movie, one of my all time favourites

Uh, I heard so many people here and on Rennlist bring this movie up that I figured it would be a bargain at 9.99 at the local Walmart.

I like B movies, but this one is horrible. There are one or two OK scenes.

The DVD will make a good coaster for cold beverages.

Just watched this on Netflix - Really not a bad movie (if you like Porsches) Some pretty good stunt driving. The 911s play the starring roles, so who did the driving? There was some good drifting and some serious air caught!

Charlie Sheen's got good hair!

My current favorite car racing movies are the Japanese "Initial D" anime series. It's all drifting and JDM cars but I have to say very entertaining and actual character development too...

I like that movie for a couple things:

The best scene I thought was when the Camaro was chasing the 930. I thought that was cool. I have it VHS that I recorded from the TV and I just leave it on that part.

Once in a while I rewind it to the chop shop part to see if I can pick up any technical stuff or see a part. J/K!

NO MAN'S LAND.....

BUT BE CAREFUL WHAT SECTION OF THE VIDEO STORE YOU PICK IT FROM.

THERE ARE HUNDRES OF NO MAN'S LAND TITLES AND THERE ARE NO MEN IN IT.. NOT EVEN CHARLIE SHEEN.
