Jay Leno made a fun little film for Wired's Autopia blog in which he emulated Claude Lelouch's cinematically famous race through Paris in "Rendezvous" — only Jay's 13-mile loop takes Mulholland Drive, Laurel Canyon, Sunset and Coldwater. He works in some nice Mulholland lore, including Steve McQueen and other actors drag racing through the hills. Did I mention he's driving a loaned Mercedes Gullwing?

Found at Curbed LA. Video and story link after the jump.
