Challenge accepted, Greg--

Car movie with some very good CGI work (and not all of it is easy to pick
out):  "Gone in Sixty Seconds."  Get the DVD for a nicely done description of
the CGI and some details on making in-car shots at speed, etc.  Nicolas Cage
went to both performance and stunt driving schools in order to do most (all?)
of the driving himself.
