Salute would be more accurate than remake.

The Beetle and Cab continually showing up was a nice touch though.

The Mustang had a closed diff this time! Other than that, they were going pretty easy, no 300 foot flights and the bad guy got caught way to quick. Meh.

I was wondering why they used an old "new" Charger instead of the redesign with the killer taillights. And then the finale happened.

Any car chase is better than no car chase.

The early Beetle was a nice touch.

I watched it, then watched the original chase. Not even close. Hollyweird hasn't had a good chase scene in a long time.

A classic tell-tale of the old CHiPs series. The old jolapy was always the car to get completely wrecked.

BMW films were pretty good

Favorite chase by far was the French connection.

In reply to 93EXCivic:

Perhaps, it looks a little "unfinished" in base trim, but the SRT8 looks berkleying tough

And the Charger pursuit aint too shabby either

Ronin. Loved the chase in that one.

The first Bourn movie with the Mini wasn't bad, either- especially when it went careening down the stairs.
