No, V12 Ferrari. Genuine film, some possibility he had spotters at the red lights, low down view accelerates perception of speed but its still pretty skilled, if not lunatic, driving.

Good to see again - ah, there's nothing like a blast around town on a summer morning before breakfast!

I bet the person in the White mini(?) (at 7mins) who crossed his path at the junction went straight home to change! And the driver was rumoured to be a then current F1 driver but they've never let on!

ps - Paul, don't post this outside the civility of the Noble forum - there are some spotty types over there who muller anyone bringing to their attention something that they've already seen!

Defo a fake. It was shot from a Merc diesel! You are not changing down from 6th to 5th entering roundabouts!

Here we go again - this one has already run and run for years

Quote from Google...

"...the possibility that the car was not actually a Ferrari but Lelouch's own Mercedes (the audio from the Ferrari would have been overdubbed) and that Lelouch himself was the driver, but was only given a ticket, not arrested. Also there's the tantalizing tidbit that the only lookout was a confederate posted at the Louvre with a walkie-talkie -- which afterward turned out to be broken. One poster in the Something Awful thread claims Lelouch admitted to being the driver (years later) and although he was given a ticket, the mayor of Paris tore it up. Another poster claims it was actually shot on a motorcycle. What are the real facts? The urban legends surrounding the film are nearly as interesting as the film itself."
