8. The Italian Job
The original Michael Caine film from 1969 featured a car chase heist; in the remake, it is all about the Mini-Cooper. Loading gold into these little speedsters, the gang rides through the city and sewer tunnels to throw off their pursuers, all set to the mellow song "Get a Bloomin' Move On." Definitely one breezy car chase.
