Lol... I thought the cars selected in those movies were actually performance cars, not just show cars. That is rediculous..no way that car could handle a shot, **** a base RA is probibly faster than that.

You know what always really bothers me about these movies? It is that dumbasses always give the first movie credit for the American sport compact scene. I mean every time you see a show on Spike TV or read something about a car show in the paper they always say "cars inspired by the fast and furious movement" or something gay like that. The scene has been around waaaayyyyy longer than that movie and way longer on the west coast then here on the east. I dont know. That just really ticks me off. It makes it seem that everyone who drives a scc is just jumping on some trendy bandwagon inspired by some lame *** movie.

well people arent as stupid as we are giving them credit for. nobody has all out bought the jetta, although they have made offers. too bad we cant see the offers. im gonna offer him 3K, get the car, peel off the wheels and body kit, and the TOP GUN 150 HP NOS system, sell it all to the ricer that speeds through my neighborhood with an SVT focus riced. he will think its killer they are from F and F.

+1. What's the point in putting in an RB in a 50+ year old muscle car chassis? Just so that you can be unique? I like old school mustangs but I'd rather see them running 427s or 302s.
