The logistics of filming the car chase in Rome, Italy were difficult to marshal, according to stunt coordinator Gary Powell, who said: "In Rome, we saw a load of roads we liked, and sometimes the road is specific to a stunt, because it had a feature which would be really nice to jump. A lot of the time when we asked for permission, we would get a yes, but some of the time we'd get a no, so we would have to try and find other roads. It was a constant process to find the right location to fit the stunts. There was a lot of toing and froing in Rome." In the end, the production was able to shut down key portions of the city, including a section alongside the Tiber, looking towards St. Peter's Square and the Coliseum. Though the audience only ever sees two cars on-screen, the second unit used a total of eight Aston Martins, and seven Jaguars to shoot the chase. Vehicle supervisor Chris Corbould stated that the Rome car chase allowed no room for error: "The stunt drivers were driving around Rome at one hundred miles (one hundred sixty kilometers) per hour, so absolutely everything had to be perfect as far as their performance was concerned. We didn't want the drivers to get injured, and also we didn't want them damaging buildings that are thousands of years old. The stakes were pretty high. We spent a lot of time testing the cars, making sure they could cope with the punishing regiment that the guys put them through."
