So... it appears that it wasn't a Ferrari 275 GTB, that it wasn't driven by an F1 driver, the soundtrack wasn't real, and it's estimated that he never exceeded 85mph.

The car was infact a Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9, worse... an automatic and wasn't driven by era defining F1 driver, but Claude Lelouch himself. :rolleyes: :p

Still impressive for his disregard of red lights though. ;)

Father Christmas, Tooth Fairy, C'était un rendez-vous. Is nothing sacred?! ;)

Kind of depressing, but still really fun to watch. Pretend it's a Ferrari. ;)
