Eric Bana, star of Munich, burns off stress the old-fashioned way: with fast cars, reports Men’s Health. Bana and columnist Mike Zimmerman went for some spirited mountain driving. “Driving a car like this,” Bana says, smirking,”is like having the sexiest woman in the world in front of you willing to do anything.” The car in question is a cherry-red 2005 Ford GT, a 550-horsepower beauty that lists for $150,000 and “holds the road as if the tires seep glue.” The pair got a chance to drive the car from Ford, “ripping up a steep stretch of two-lane linguine in the mountains just off the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu.” Bana says he has a lot of anxiety and pressure while acting, and driving “flushes that stress out.” Bana often drives the same muscle car he’s had since he was 15 — a 1974 Australian-model Ford Falcon.”I fell in love with it, because it was just like the car they used in Mad Max,” he says.
