Domestic fans and muscle car lovers will have a significantly different car movie list than VIP fans or European car lovers.

For sport compact lovers and import car modders, one of the most recognized movies on our list will be the Fast and Furious franchise. This movie series has been in the news quite a bit recently, from the death of movie star Paul Walker, to the sale of the Fast and Furious Supra as well as the crushing of the Big Bird R33 Skyline.

With news of Fast and Furious 8 being released recently, along with the wild success of Furious 7we are taking a look back the the Ten Best car movies of all time. As with all of our lists, there is no definitive winner or loser of our ranked compilations so there’s bound to be some entries here you don’t agree with.

Drive (2011)

Starring Ryan Gosling as a cold blooded Hollywood stunt driver, Drive sporadically uses some gripping set pieces of car racing and stunts which make for exciting chase scenes.

Playing Carey Mulligan a ex-felon getaway driver, Gosling flexes his range and provides a great backdrop to the few car chase scenes. This is one car racing movie that works well with less action than more.
