I've seen it before also. I believe it was an F1 driver in the seat, early one Paris morning.

But I may have been told wrong.

Yeah, that's been around forever, and has been posted and debated here multiple times before. You used to be able to buy the DVD out of R&T or C&D.

Actually the consensus is that is was a Ferrari 275 GTB.

Nope- it's a Mercedes. The audio was also dubbed in later (i think by the end he's in 12th gear or something). Also, he was never travelling as fast as he said he was. I don't remember where to find it, but you can follow the route on Google Earth (where it becomes obvious that there was no way he was driving 120 mph).
