    Even if this has 2.5 stars at this moment, the basics of this movie are simple... if you are into cars and love cars, this is a good documentary ... if you aren't into cars nor love them, you won't enjoy this documentary.

    This movie was great, I have an old sports car that I hang on to for the reasons all the guys in this movie do. It becomes a part of who you are and Banna brings that out in this film.

    I would love to wright a Review for this. But the 1st one I received was broken, and I waited a long time (about a month and a hafe 2 months) and the 2nd disk I received was broken. And I dont mean wouldnt play, 1st one was cracked, the 2nd one was broken in hafe. And yes it wouldnt play, most likely the same disk. I guess somebody forgot check to see if it was OK.
