[luedriver]

makes me wish BMW would make a similar re-make of the BMW 507 with a lightweight 3.0lt v8 would be half the wieght of this MB...

[luedriver]

@luedriver but who am I kidding theyd be stupid enough to put on it 2 turbos and make it weigh more than the last Z8...

[ednut69]

would be better if it had a 6 speed manual.

not to be elitist or anything, but i kept thinking 'where's the heel-toeing?'

[shellycat]

[ednut69]

If you can afford an SLS AMG you're too rich to shift your own gears...

[nrg1901]

[Hans308GT4]

I've never seen Sunset blvd that empty!!! What time of day was this taken???

I was in Pasadena and drove up into the mountain on a road from what i remember called the 95 Correct me if i'm wrong.

[TSR5000]

@Sj1bby They've been driving this "track" flatout since it was first paved. This is where Dick Guldstrand developed his first corvette suspensions and the street racing that went on here in the 70's is part of the local lore. It fell out of activity in the 80's due to increased enforcement, but also due to the poor condition of the road surface and much increased commuter traffic. There is no way you could drive it at pace today, even this video had to be shot and edited from three days footage.

[ASSEMblerEX]

Lame. If he was being true he wouldn't be driving so damn slow. What a bore.

[d2michael]

well a car that looks/sounds like that going 60-70 mph probably would be an instant cop magnet

[abadi527]

I'm the guy Docsab is referring too. It was in '97 or '98 I was driving on Mulholland approaching deadman's curve when Jay came flying around the corner halfway on my side of the road in a nice old Jaguar and caused me to swerve into the dirt in the minivan I was driving at the time. Jay showed up at Bob's Bitg Boy that next Friday night and apologized about the incident after I told him what he was driving, where we were and the exact time it happened. He knew then, it was me:) He's still nice.

[docsab]

He ran my friend James off the road once on Mulholland. My friend talked to him at Bob's about the mishap. No blows... but... Jay is a bit nutty behind the wheel at times.... and he gets away with it... because we all love him.

[The69mach1man]

Is that the factory mufflers???? Wow....lots of backpressure from them???

[agxerf]

Which is the film that he talks at 0:40 ?

[23eHeure]

@agxerf "C'etait un rendezvous" by Claude Lelouche.

[sp3c14l1st]

Great movie!!!

[DerOllie]

WauW!! Amazing footage...

[iXchani91]

Really like the idea of this, also recognize a lot of stuff from Midnight Club: LA! Some roads look really shitty though, probably wouldn't be that much fun to drive on on coil-overs.

[Mogomezu]

Wow, I could just listen to the engine for hours. I am, dare I say, aroused. What a great drive and what a phenomenal Beem.

[02roush]

I luckily stumbled upon Jay while shooting this. I was cruising my Factory Five Cobra and Jay waved me in to check out my car!!!! I got to talk to him for a few minutes, very cool. Checkout my videos.

[hyderbomb]

damn from 5:57 and on, on the road there are so many tracks of people crashing its sad......great video tho Jay Leno is great car collector

[reallylightstuff]

@hyderbomb I think those are shadows of the telephone lines.
