The opening shot of The Player was a solid five minute tracking shot through a movie studio.

Alfred Hitchcock's 'Rope' was shot to be one continuous sequence like a play. There were a couple cuts throughout it but they had to be there since the film had to be changed in the camera a few times.

C'était un rendez-vous

is a short film made in 1976 by Claude Lelouch, showing an eight-minute drive through Paris at 5:30 AM.

Basically one long shot from the bumper of a guy driving a ferrari as fast as he can through the centre of Paris.

likewise...yeah, apparently, it was driven by a pro driver friend of his. He applied for a license to shoot it, but got declined, so he wound up doing it without one, and was arrested immediately upon showing it for the first time.

Incorrect. There are cuts in this film. Subtle, but they are there.

Rent is fairly well known for its long shots.
