Chris has posted the ultimate list of the top 20 car chase scenes (but is still open to ammending his list)

http://chrisoncars.com/?p=2343 to see his top 20

You can email him your opinions or list of your favorites at raymondcj@aol.com or chris@chrisoncars.com

I haven't seen all of the movies that have these chases, but I have seen most and the variety of movies with a car chase is quite broad... from Sci Fi like the Matrix Reloaded, to old cop movies that were normal investigation style detectives like The French Connection... I can't remember any part of the story line of the French Connection, just Gene and that car chase scene, but Chris has the scoop on what was really going on with the chase scene, and I've never learned this stuff before, it's all news to me!

Bad Boys (Will Smith) had the best collection of muscle cars in a single scene, 70 Superbee, Firebird, Yenko Duece, 67? Chevelle, 76? Trans Am, and that was just until the gun fight.... the chase reconvened with the bad guys dropping cars off a transporter one at a time. Best scene is at the top of Chris' list

Watch the "Masters Touch" to see a 62 Savoy mistreated like no other

action sequences from Speedfest, a spin out causing yellow flags, the only crash of the day, and powering through a corner smoothly

in the above, you can see it hasn't come to a halt yet, and the wheel clip is sill in the air, next to the front of the rear tire

Most Expensive Car Crashes Ever

The Number One most expensive car crash ever may have just happened, and this Ferrari might be #2 most now... http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/01/most-expensive-crash-on-record-may-have.html
The most expensive car crash ever. At a historic race event, the owner of this rare beast rammed into the back of another car after traffic slowed down.

Touted as the Ferrari that most successfully embodies the traits of the marque, the 1962-64 Ferrari 250 GTO became the most valuable car in the world, surpassing the previous record of 11 million set by the Coburn 1961 Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spyder. In 2008 an anonymous English buyer bought a 250 GTO at auction for a record $28,500,000.

The crash represents a car worth more than the combined value of all 14 Enzos involved in accidents. It is simply unbelievable that an owner would even dare take this car on the road.

The 2nd most expensive

The record price for a 1961 250 GT California Spyder at auction was set on May 18, 2008 when a black one was sold for $10,894,900. So what is one doing buried in the sand? The unlucky owner had it stored near the beach when a Hurricane hit.

Number 3

This 1959 Ferrari 250 GT "Tour de France" crashed into a wall at the Shell Ferrari-Maserati Historic Challenge back in 2003.
