the driver/director says in the making of he used people from his team to block some parts of Paris and prevent him from oncoming traffic, the Merc was used because it's smooth and he wasn't alone in the car, there were 2 more people going along
no problem, if u like driving like this, look for a lap of the Nordschleife in the RUF Porsche 911, it's as good as Pikes Peak, maybe even better cuz it lasts longer and it's on tarmac, there's a site called Racing Underground where you can find the complete video, it's worth it, trust me!
OMG, when they got to the round about, that was terrifying........ Would love to try that in my car!!!!!!!!!!!! Where the h3ll are the police, was this planned with the city?????????????
A British show called the Fifth gear recreated this (Driven by vicki butler henderson). This was shot in regular speed. The video was played faster and the sound track was added to it. Come on FLD get you facts right.
the video doesnt sound right...it does kind of sound like it was overlaid. i like the getaway in stockholm videos better. the one with the cosworth and the supra is just sick. just cuz it was first of its kind doesnt mean it was the best.
Lelouch's Ferrari 275GTB which was used for the sound. car driven was a MB. saw this flick in film school. Reminds me of Ghost Rider in europe the dark mysterious motorcycle speed demon.
Funny side note to this movie: Claude Lelouch, the director of the movie and the driver of the Mercedes (and not Ferrari) had planned his course ahead and put a helper at his only blind spot in the movie (5:23 min) This man would warn him if there would be traffic while crossing the intersection after the tunnel through a Walkie-talkie. After the shooting the man declared that the radio device was not working.
i own the spirit level film c´tait un rendevous (french for: it was an appointment) for years, and everyone of my friends was totally stunned. the sound is from a ferrari 250 gto, but the cars ride was not smooth enough to serve a nice picture, so lelouch drove the track twice, the second time with a mercedes 600 sel. thats why sometimes the sound of the engine doesnt fit the picture.
Rendezvous - This is "the film that started it all!" Kevin Beard of PILOTI shoes turned me onto this film in the early '90's and he played it in his booth at all the events they attended. AWESOME STUFF!! And yes, you can own your own copy this very film on DVD!
Alright .. some say Mercedes-Benz, some say Ferrari, some even say it's a motorbike ... FLD said it's a Ferrari.. So.. I think I'm just gonna go with Ferrari...
if u ppl liked this...then you are going to love pakistan...cuz ppl here drive like this all the time, i mean any day, any time any where ...not just in the mornings....heck, you'd see ppl driving like this in rush hours with cops, pedestrians and all!
ppl living in this part of the world wouldn't be impressed by this...im not even kidding!
gotta love third world countries.....as far as craziness is concerned!
I think he hit 75mph at one point. Why dont you geys check out the gost rider STI videos. Now that is some fast driving. But thats cool this is the one that sparked them all. Thats a good reason to make the drive ;)
its a mercedes. thats not the sound of the engine or the tires. the sounds come from a ferrari. they were dubbed over the video. Its also an illusion that hes driving that fast since the camera is very low to the ground it enhances the sensation of speed, but he was still speeding just not as fast as you would think.
Thanks for posting an old favorite Derek. I had one hell of a sad and somber weekend and finding this when I logged on to catch up on some FLD really helped my Sunday evening. Thanks.
I thought it was either a hot hatch or a very heavy car because there was virtually no oversteer and quite a bit of squeal during higher speeds. The engine note threw me off the heavy car idea but then I read the wiki page... Trumped again!
Stop it with it being a car already!!! It's a damn motorcycle!! 7:05 proves it as he squeezes through a truck and the sidewalk. And also notice how the camera tilts as he makes turns. Obviously we are being misled. Audio was dubbed. Shame on FLD for the wrong info. Do your research guys!
No thats a car. if you have ever seen the first person view in motorcycle races its almost sideways on really sharp turns. but it doesn't happen on any of really sharp turns in this video. So your telling me the director diffed physics in the rest of the video?
It doesn't tilt anywhere...research my ass :) "He was arrested after his 1976 film, C'était un rendez-vous, featuring a Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9 being illegally driven at high speed through the streets of Paris, was first shown publicly.
Recent claims made by the director himself, however, suggest he drove his own Mercedes-Benz 450SEL 6.9 in the film and dubbed the sound effects of a Ferrari 275GTB."
best fucking movie ever and the directer has balls of steel/nice driving skills too, honestly that movie could've been done in a Geo and it'd still be just as good(with the same audio of course lol)
hey Derek, i think you guys should go to the Detroit auto show because its the best one and the most prestigious in the world!! so yea just saying Detroit is the way to go.
doesn't seem like he's going that fast.......just a loud engine hahaha...i could be wrong tho....but it sure does seem kinda slow for a bumper cam...iunno..what you think?
its true, if you find the behind-the-scenes video he explains how he made it, it was actually with some mercedes or something with a ferrari sound dubbed over it
OMG!!! that was fucking epic... even if the audio was dubbed the driving was fucking awesome... and did you notice around 4mins all the red lights he shot through LOL Top Gear should try and cover this story lol
And what is it with all these retarted kids in the comments thinking they all know it better than one another... Just accept the fact that's it's a big mercedes with dubbed sound. Keep your opinion for yourself, nobody gives a shit...
And thx for the upload FLD.. love your car porn! xD
i thought this was gonna be the first fast lane daily vid i like....but i was wrong. sounds like you're driving a lambo....looks like you're driving a fiat 126p [1/5]
dear fastlanedaily, that would be sweet if you went to the boston auto show (dec 2-6), the boston auto show is actually pretty sweet it has alot of nice cars. also i will be there cause i live near boston.
also i didnt knowtice anyone in the video actually look at the car and if the car was that loud then someone would have heard it coming especially the woman(i think) who walked right infront of the car
after lookin closely at it I'm man enough to say u r right. The sound kinda throws you off , that definitely sounds like a v 12. probably a non fuel injected
Motorcycle. 7.05 he sqeezes between a truck and sidewalk. Can't fit a car there! Umm, and the plot? Beat as much red light as you can because you'll get whooped by your bitch if you're late - lol
Ive seen this vid a few times, and i still love every single rev of that engine. Though there has been a lot of comments about the supposed fact that the engine noise is dubbed over the top. Not sure if it is true, but I have a sneaky feeling it is. As ToyotaGT1Racer points out, it revs like mad but doesn't really seem to go any faster. Still though the film is a treat to watch and the blipping of the throttle as the driver downshifts sound immense.
The first movie short I've seen with a similar style was "The Run" back in 2002 or 2003 featuring the Nissan 350Z around the streets of Prague. "The Run" was awesome, and so is this. LOVE that engine sound. That has to be either a Ferrari or a Lamborghini. Great driving and lovely technique by the driver. The ending, however, I... no comment. And by the way... Paris, France is one of my favorite cities in the world. So it makes this video double-awesome. Thanks for the note on the car's engine.
Did you guys see how empty the arc de triumph was? He must have done this at 5 in the morning new years day when everyone was passed out drunk. Those crazy crazy french
I want to be in the 70's and drive through Paris like that using a Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4. Not only can't the police catch me but It would leave the people on the streets with their jaws dropped in surprise =P
I feel the chills just watching this. Imagine doing this using a Jaguar XKR or a Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 and at night.
But wouldn't it be a bit hard to drive it through Paris? I know it's a good car but It's not the sort you'd take when being chased by bad guys especially in the streets.
I prefer not too much power with superb handling and great engine sound. Either the LP560-4 or 458 Italia would be enough.
yeah no wonder the sound and the car didnt match! anyways ledouche or whateva killed a few birds on his way to Blondie... have a great weekend all you FLD junkies!!!
NOT ONE COP, I just drive for 5 freaking minutes in CA and i see at least 3 cops... and all hungry for the minimum tickets that they need to pay their freaking high salaries... THAT's it lets all go to paris!!! or the poor side of Africa where police don't have cars...
In 1976, LA police didn't give a shit either. How times have changed. Los Angeles is horrible. I had to go a dentist's appointment in Beverly Hills last week. It took me 45 minutes to find a parking spot on Wilshire Blvd., and even then, the meter ran like $7. Lot parking was $3 more.....
Bring Derek D back!!
I can't wait for Fast Lane Daily to be back to normal.

I want to be in the 70's and drive through Paris like that using a Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4. Not only can't the police catch me but It would leave the people on the streets with their jaws dropped in surprise =P
I feel the chills just watching this. Imagine doing this using a Jaguar XKR or a Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 and at night.

But wouldn't it be a bit hard to drive it through Paris? I know it's a good car but It's not the sort you'd take when being chased by bad guys especially in the streets.
I prefer not too much power with superb handling and great engine sound. Either the LP560-4 or 458 Italia would be enough.

NOT ONE COP, I just drive for 5 freaking minutes in CA and i see at least 3 cops... and all hungry for the minimum tickets that they need to pay their freaking high salaries... THAT's it lets all go to paris!!! or the poor side of Africa where police don't have cars...

In 1976, LA police didn't give a shit either. How times have changed. Los Angeles is horrible. I had to go a dentist's appointment in Beverly Hills last week. It took me 45 minutes to find a parking spot on Wilshire Blvd., and even then, the meter ran like $7. Lot parking was $3 more.....
