C'était un rendez-vous


I don't know exactly what fraction of cool of the makers of this film that I would be satisfied with, but rest assured, it would be a very small fraction.

  2. Quite right, thanks for posting, I couldn't find a succinct statement of the original description of the video (unknown driver driving a Ferrari through the streets of Paris in the early morning) nor the subsequent controversy (that the driver was Lalouche, the car a Mercedes).

    I don't know the difference between 140 mph and 220 mph well enough (or whatever). Maybe it's the difference between 0 and 80, but somehow I doubt it.

    Still, a cool stunt, and a cool video.
