Crazy Camera Cars
By David
aka Highspeedhijinks
We all have our favorite car movies and their corresponding chase scenes, but we rarely get to see the vehicles they use to get all those amazing shots. Most "camera cars" have to be able to keep up with high-performance muscle cars or super-exotics, all the while carrying several crew members and hundreds of pounds of camera equipment. My favorite by far in this list of 12 unique camera cars has got to be the Predator! Something about it just screams YouTube mayhem.

Surprised they don’t have the camera car from Batman Begins, they used an ML 63 AMG to make sure they could do the Tumbler scenes at as realistic a speed as possible.

The Porsche 908 used as a camera car in Le Mans, with Steve McQueen. It ran to 2nd place in the 12 Hours of Sebring & was entered by Solar Productions to compete in the race, equipped with movie cameras to film actual racing footage from the track. This camera car travelled 282 laps (3,798 km) & finished the race in 9th position, but wasn’t classified cuz it didn’t cover the required minimum distance due to stops to change film reels. It finished 2nd in the P3.0 class.

Very cool how much stuff the can bolt on to a car for all those great close up angle shots. Another interesting non-movie camera car is the Google Street View Prius.
