I'm fond of the "The Hire" series of short films starring Clive Owen and the 2001 line of BMWs.  Sure, they were just longform ads, but they highlighted great action directors with excellent driving sequences.  My favorite?  Ang Lee's entry that looked more like a ballet than a traditional chase sequence, complete with a tease to his (then upcoming) Hulk.  Unfortunately, BMW has since taken the movies off of the internet, but you can find a few of them on YouTube and Google Video.

C'était un rendez-vous by Claude Lelouch

It's all of eight minutes long. One shot, live to film.  A high speed
run thru pre-dawn Paris captured by an early gyro-stabilized camera
mounted low on the front bumper.

Interesting, but some spoilers:

You can see it on the net, but I highly recommend holding off to view it
  from  DVD.  Good stuff.
