Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit which is the latest in the NFS series also have come out with a trailer. There is however the spectacular live action realization of the chase from the E3 reveal trailer that has been used in this trailer.
The original trailer depicted a chase where a Koenigsegg CCX, Pagani Zonda Cinque and McLaren MP4-12C are pursued by two Ford Shelby GT500s, a Bugatti Veyron, a Lamborghini Murciélago and a Bell 206 helicopter.
