American Graffiti is #1, Dirty Mary and Crazy Larry #2, Vanishing Point #3
I remember seeing Last American Hero in the theater, I think it was renamed the Hard Driver when it played on tv.

HotRod was great, but wasn't that a 64 Dodge? The Duel with Dennis Weaver, Hard Racer(based loosely on Jr. Johnson), and I loved that funny car movie with Gordie Bonin's car in it...oh what was that called? It was cheesy, and made in Alberta, I believe...Fast Company?
 
Here's some I like that I don't think have been mentioned:

How about Johnny Dark, it's bit corny but it has a lot of 50s era sports car and racers in the back ground in the USA, this is hard to find and I don't think it has ever been released as a video.

Rendevous - a short that is an illegal and fast run thru Paris very early on a sunday morning.

Grand Prix.. James Garner with actual vintage mid-sixties race footage with some Americans in it like Phil Hill and Richie Ginther.

Not my favorite movies, but Love and a .45 had an awesome blue 71 Roadrunner in it. Also, Naturla Born Killers had a Challenger.
 
The original Blues Brothers... shitbox Dodge and a great soundtrack!

All of the above plus "The Gumball Rally". The sound of the Cobra and Ferrari Daytona are just awesome in the high speed NYC shots early in the movie. I also love the two guys laying under the Jaguar - "A handsome design"....."I wish it ran". That movie also had a great toast: "To internal combustion, and wind in the face".

gumball rally is my choice too for the exact same reason. those guys waking up New York city gives me chicken skin.
mad max and road warrior my second choice
 
Hot Rod was a killer flick!!! I think they even mention Rolla Missouri in it when he goes to the junk yard lookin for a Willy's.
 
another good old one with nice mopars is 'its a mad mad mad mad world'
if its on, i'm wacthin it.

American Graffiti

More American Graffiti (part 2)

Funnycar Summer

Hollywood Knights

Smokey and the Bandit!!!

Gone in 60 Seconds the real one not that new P.O.S. (even tho HB Halaki hated mopars)

The Junkman (gone in 60 seconds part 2)

Corvette Summer

Hot Rod

Natural Born Killers (70 challenger convert) I've see that one probably more times than a human should...274 times...yeah I acually counted....

Hell, I'll watch anything with a cool car so I will just say all of them!
 
Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry, Thunder Road, Bullitt, and ( Vanishing Point #1 )
 
Steve McQueen in "LeMans". No plot to get in the way of pure auto racing brain candy!
 
Streets Of Fire, not only cars but for me one of the greatest movies ever
