Getway features a 911 Turbo Running from some powers at very very very fast speeds.....a real awesome vid 2.
There are actually a couple out and they are pretty awesome. There is another one with a supra and Escort Cosworth looking for cops and then leaving them lol...it is pretty cool.
was it really that same model mercedes? that Merc. seemed automatic and I could have sworn I heard some rev matching in the original Video. meh....
What I've read the past few days about this is that the original filming was done using a Mercedes 6.9, but to give the higher impression of speed, the sounds from a Ferrari 275 GTB were piped in.
I've been told they did the same thing with the movie Bullit and using sounds from a GT40 (I guess there's no way you can replicate that gear change noise on a street gear box or something, I may be mistaken though).
Ya I read that stuff too, oh well he can still drive
I saw those getaway in stockholm vids, crazy stuff.

On an August morning in 1978, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch mounted a gyro-stabilized camera to the bumper of a Ferrari 275 GTB and had ... all » a friend, a professional Formula 1 racer, drive at breakneck speed through the heart of Paris. The film was limited for technical reasons to 10 minutes; the course was from Porte Dauphine, through the Louvre, to the Basilica of Sacre Coeur.
No streets were closed, for Lelouch was unable to obtain a permit.
The driver completed the course in about 9 minutes, reaching nearly 140 MPH in some stretches. The footage reveals him running real red lights, nearly hitting real pedestrians, and driving the wrong way up real one-way streets.
Upon showing the film in public for the first time, Lelouch was arrested. He has never revealed the identity of the driver, and the film went underground until a DVD release a few years ago

That's what the Google write up is about...I've seen a picture of the camera on his 6.9. On his own website he confirms the 275GTB sounds were piped in.
it doesnt matter is this is a repost, cause holy fawk this is cool. was the sound really piped in? if so they did a good job some things such as the movements of the car when the driver mis-shifts still lead me to believe its somewhat authentic.. ah well. very good film.
