Tom,
There is a new recording of the Blues Brothers on Laser disc in AC 3, pretty
awesome!

I would rate this one for good sound and photography. Especially nice if
you happen to own a Dolby Surround sound system.

All-time worst car movie: 'Manta, Manta!' from Germany, early '80s. Only
interesting if you're badly into Opel Mantas and brain-dead. 'Grease'-like
plot.

I also loved 'The Italian Job' and 'Le Mans'. Got both of them on video, in
fact.
I'd vote for 'The Blues Brothers', too. Another of my favourites...

PS Mandatory Audi content: I wish I could go out and work on my 90q for a
bit- it really needs a lot doing to it- but the weather's just incredibly
bad.
