One of my favourite films is the gumball rally and love most of the cars especially the AC cobra, the yellow camaro and the ferrari daytona.

It also has one of my favourite movie quotes ever ;

Franco: And now my friend, the first-a rule of Italian driving.

[Franco rips off his rear-view mirror and throws it out of the car]

Franco: What's-a behind me is not important
