There are so many, that it's hard to pick my single favorite.  Some contenders:

- Bullitt (McQueen...)
- Blues Brothers "through the mall" (mentioned before, but it's really a fun one)
- Ronin - A modern classic
- Bourne Ultimatum (?) -- There are a few Bourne chases, but my fave is the scene in Moscow where JB is in an old (Lada?) cab and chased by the Russian in a G-wagen
- The Road Warrior (entire movie is one big chase scene  [laugh])
- I just rented The Dark Knight - The semi/armored car scene is great.
- There are some good James Bond car scenes.  Bond chases may not have as much pure action as others, but the cars and characters are very memorable.  (The Lotus car/sub, the Aston DB5, the BMW 740 that's controlled by a cell phone  [thumbsup])

i know its a little off topic- but the foot chase in the beginning of Casino Royale was pretty badass!

Not really a car chase but the scene from the first Tomb Raider movie with Angelina Jolie on the monster dark.  It was the first time I had ever seen a monster and it made me fall in love with them. 




















































Besides Jolie is hot as hell (IMO) so that helped too.

It's like I keep saying:  Those who would sacrifice a free range session for a giant beer, deserve neither free range time nor a giant beer.

I just quoted yours to note that the Anarchy Burger sig line is awesome.  [thumbsup]

I'm also in voting for Bullitt, Italian Job, Ronin, and, even though it's not a CAR chase, the Steve McQueen run on the bike in The Great Escape is awesome too.

Outside of the CGI, the Black 999 in the Matrix movie...

Yes, and of course Bullit and Ronin were amazing... :)
