Something different in terms of YouTube awesomness this week...
First up is Rendezvous. Here is a 1976 short film of a car doing a high-speed run through the streets of Paris. He is driving very fast, and there are a few close calls with other cars, pedestrians & birds. The film car is a 6.9 Litre Mercedes-Benz 450SEL, but an odd thing about it is the audio is dubbed, with a Ferrari 275 being used for audio.
The dubbing does take away a bit of the gloss for me, but alot of respect is needed for this classic car porn.
Rendezvous has inspired many films, and the second video tonight is a fine example. Getaway in Stockholm is a very high speed romp through the streets of Stockholm in a Porsche 911 which begins with the driver being pulled over by a Volvo police car.
I hope you enjoy these videos as much as I have, and I wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR!
