I personally think that the chases in Ronin are among the best in film. The chase in The French Connection was also rather good, but in a more realistic sense. The chase in Bullitt was also quite memorable. I think those would be my top three.
The Bourne Supremacy had a fantastic car chase scene, and even though it's a bit odd, I like the car chase scene in the Matrix Reloaded. Another good one was the Italian Job, I agree.
Oh wow, I completely forgot about the Bourne Supremacy. That was a really good car chase. The Italian Job (remake, never saw the original) was pretty good although the racing through the subways was a little over the top.
Italian Job is a good one, I haven't seen Bullitt but I've heard it's really good. Can't recall many good chase scenes actually, Gone in 60 Seconds was okay.

I didn't like the main one in Gone in 60 Seconds. The movie itself was okay, other than some of the "technology" they used to steal cars wouldn't really work quite the way they showed it, but it was still a neat movie if you're a car nut.

It's an old car chase movie. It's about some guy who wants to drive across like 3 states or somthing in one day for no apparent reason and ends up getting into a police chase. It wasn't very good, but it was one of those movies that is so stuiped it comical.

Oh, I see. Well, you know, those random police chases for no reason... they happen. (In L.A., maybe.)
