Just turned on the TV and what do I see as it comes on. A black 68'charger jump on the gas followed by a 67' green mustang GT390. Was there ever a better car scean then Bullitt?

    Yep, the quintessential car chase movie. Should have seen it on the big screen first. Car jumps made everyone bounce in their seats. Very good film in general as well.

    I think that Herbie, the love bug chase scene had a bit more intensity.

    Yeah, a great movie. Really the gold standard as far as car chase scenes if you ask me. I believe McQueen did his own driving in that movie.

    Better car scene, or better car chase? Grand Prix is a better movie for car nuts but if it is a "chase" movie is up to debate.

    Yes it was the best with the "French Connection" chase scene a very close second!

    Not much compares in modern movies, but I did enjoy the driving in Ronin. Gotta love seeing an Audi being driven as it should be :)
