Our friends over at Automobiles De Luxe posted an interesting article on the 70’s cult classic C’était un Rendezvous, the short film made by Claude Lelouch in 1976 - you can check it out here

If you feel the need to refresh your memory, then follow the link and watch Rendezvous again, this time while being able to simultaneously watch the drivers progress through Paris thanks to Google Maps.

Real or imagined, Rendezvous is more about the noise than the drive. The Ferrari soundtrack makes it oh so obvious why the average car enthusiast is a little threatened by something like the Prius…its the thought of never hearing a real engine again, and I’ll be the first to admit to it.
