Claude Lelouch later admitted to shooting it himself on the front of his Mercedes and dubbing the Ferrari sound in. He was never arrested but issued a ticket which the mayor of France later riped up. The urban legend was he Hired and F1 driver to run his Ferrari through the streets was arrested when the tape was aired but never admitted who the F1 driver was. Sweet video and used to be really underground. I was first introduced to this in European expression art but also saw in French class lol the teachers justification lol "You got a great look at the city."
Here is the video we also watched If you speak French great lol if not just watch the first 30 seconds http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHn5Q...eature=related

I leave you with this lol the guy is a god nice FXX
