‘C’etait un Rendezvous’ made in 1976 by Claude Lelouch has always been a special movie to me, featuring what I (and everybody else) thought to be a Ferrari 275 racing through the streets of Paris. It is truly awesome. But I just, and by just I mean 7 minutes ago, learn’ed that he actually used a quite different car for the shoot, a Mercedes-Benz 450 SEL 6.9. Yepp, a huge and heavy MB, no small, nimble and agile Italian thoroughbred… Even though the MB still is a really special car, it sort of takes some of the magic away from the movie, but I can’t stop loving it either. Make sure you see the entire clip and decide for yourself!
