I think To Live and Die in L.A. had a good chase, i agree with one and two but they left a lot out if ya ask me.

What do you think of the list?  What would you add/delete?

The original "Gone in 60 Seconds" was perhaps one of the best car chase movies I've ever seen. That poor mustang took one hell of a beating. The 2nd version "pales" to the original. I remember seeing the original in the early 70's....

Any past Clint Eastwood movie is better than today's computer generated K-R-A-P (Radio Station To The Planet).

Steve McQueen rocks too.

THIS is the biggest car chase movie ever made. One of the funniest as well with ALL the great comedians of the time.

If you young guys haven't ever seen it, rent it. Its a good movie.

I liked Ronin, French Connection, and Lemans.
Bullit was modified too much in the editing room, a single section used twice from two different angles, sections shot out of sequence. Dang cool though.

In Carlisle, PA They have a big MOPAR weekend in the summer.  There is always, at some point during the weekend, a big screen set up with Vanishing Point playing.   :aok

I still like the Bumblebee/Barricade chase from Transformers. I mean come on, how can you NOT like a car chase that's followed up by the CARS beating the crap out of each other?
