I never understood what Wheely meant when he said "It took a crowd to do it, but at least we lost the Lancia" until now. Herbie was going to steer away from the race to follow the Lancia again, but got blocked by a small crowd watching the race. Of course, had he decided to drive through the crowd, he'd be fine, but Jim and Wheely would have been convicted of multiple counts of murder (what would they have told the French authorities, "That car's got a mind of its own")
That's the main reason this is my favorite of all 'The Love Bug' sequels. The perils and romance were great as well, and this film did a great job at balancing both, but the racing in this film is just top-notch in comparison. The only other film that comes anywhere close in this regard is the original film in my opinion. Let's be honest here though, who doesn't love seeing Herbie in his natural habitat? ;)
Ironically enough, the 917 is actually a kit car based on an air-cooled VW chassis, the Laser 917. I’m sure that the 917/917K’s low production number and the risk that comes with stunt driving and constant reshoots like damaging a very expensive track-only Porsche was what probably influenced their decision to use a kit car imitation of a genuine 917.
Zero, if it was the real deal. But we are talking about a movie with a sentient Beetle. ;) I know of exactly one(1) real & street legal 917 driving on German roads today and it seems the thing is a nightmare to maintain.
No one ever talks about how much Gilbert in that Pantera got away with. First, he took off to leave Bruno bullying Herbie by himself. Then he got his comeuppance later right outside the border with Monaco.
I absolutely LOVE the music for this movie. Especially, the race sequences! I wish I could find a good recreation of it or have someone recreate an entire song from the start of the race to the moment the tires screech together.
Hi, I am watching these hilarious movies again but when the classification begins, nobody has noticed that instead of Paris they start from the Laguna Seca circuit? The corkscrew is clearly visible
Didn't know that Sprint Qualifying introduced by Herbie and not F1. Formula 1 introduced Sprint Qualifying in 2021 and I literally didn't know that this thing existed years ago.
Scusami Gianluca De Mare puoi farmi morire ora nel sonno? Sono arrabbiato, è mai possibile Gianluca De Mare che alle 6 del mattino uno si deve svegliare col sonno e che non ha voglia di fare niente? Perché? Perché tutti dobbiamo soffrire?

No doubt
Yes
@@_chan.burn.21_ Completely agree.
A De Tomaso Pantera and a Porsche 917 vs a beetle what are the chances?

Wheely: You hear that, Herbie? Now, you forget that powder puff and get your mind on racing!
Douglas: you better believe it
Herbie: ...Fine. 😒
Now this is the real cars 2, without the "spy" thing
I mean…it did have the espionage jewel heist with a love interest thing going for it.
@@josefrobbins8781but at least it had more races than spy
Love to see the good ol' Laguna Seca.

That was also the spot where Princess Grace died.

❤❤❤❤ love this ❤❤❤❤
Car number 66’s drive was cheering on Herbie
Herbie: (gets pushed off the track by Bruno's Porsche) Hey! No fair!
(Wheely yelling at Bruno) YOU BETTER CLOSE YOUR MOUTH TURKEY, CAUSE YOUR GONNA GET OUR TIRE MARKS RIGHT ACROSS YOUR TEETH!
0:40 what is that 1965 Apollo GT of Thorndyke Special replace Red.?
Lancia 😍 Amazing car, I love it.. I'm in love like Herbie
Jim having Wheely is literally almost the same as Thorndyke having Havershaw.
Buongiorno e buona domenica mattina alla famiglia De Sio spero che con questo coronavirus stiate tutti bene in famiglia

Jim Douglas Hey Herbie What are you doing?
Edwin Perene Jim Douglas Oh no.

Però cazzo Gianluca De Mare zia Adriana è riuscita a fare addirittura la mantenuta sulle spalle dei suoceri
Gianluca De Mare non mi puoi mantenere
