You have to escape from the law. What's the car? Whats on the stereo?

A Porsche, and the Stanley Brothers' Early 78s CD on Revenant.

This is the car, and there's wacky clarinet music playing.

I'm dissapointed, that porsche is watercooled.

At first I thought you wrote "that porsche is a watercooler."

As demonstrated in the show where Grandpa Simpson has a top aphrodisiac formula, playing bluegrass-style chase music just makes people chase you.

...with the original Quincy Jones soundtrack.

(I can't decide if a remake is a good idea... but the cast is sort of interesting:

Mark Wahlberg
Edward Norton
Charlize Theron
Donald Sutherland
Mos Def
Seth Green)

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Monday, 14 April 2003 20:04 (twenty-two years ago)

If they break another miura then the remake will be a very bad idea.

All you americans and your mustangs will be introuble if we have to getaway round corners.

There are no corners in America. Only highways, straight gorgeous highways.

Specifically, "Going to Town"

― j.lu (j.lu), Monday, 14 April 2003 20:22 (twenty-two years ago)

I would drive this:

And play this:

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00004YC1W.01._PE7_SCMZZZZZZZ_.jpg

Both of which would be good for a good cross country trip, no matter what the reason for said cross country trip might be. Of course, I'd rather it be out of choice than out of necessity, but that wouldn't be in sync with this thread's scenario.

― Dee the Lurker (Dee the Lurker), Monday, 14 April 2003 20:26 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh, do I like kitsch...

They didn't. The Miura they destroyed was a phony (watch closely when they dump it off the cliff and you'll notice no engine). They DID trash the XKEs and the DB4, but they restored them afterwards.

Now it's my turn, baby. Getting away from shotgun-toting biker thugs:
