Fast 5: Paul Walker's car is.... 370Z

I like the movies. They are entertaining in their own way. And I think the best part comes a year after the movie when you see all the copy cats

I like the movies. They are entertaining in their own way. And I think the best part comes a year after the movie when you see all the copy cats running around. I can't tell you how many Eclipse were running around with a neon green paint job, blitz body kit, and stickered up.

i don't get why this would be a bad thing. it brings more publicity to the car. i agree with the above statements about the other cars that paul walker drove in the series as well as possibly improving aftermarket support.

and anyone worried about this causing 'poor people' to buy our cars is really a pretentious ass

and F&F is entertaining enough to watch. its stupid and corny and fake, but thats part of its charm.

At least they didn't totally rice out the car, although those vented fenders are super played out, tacky and pure rice. But it's a movie. I realize they can't exactly roll a stock car out there.

i can't stand hearing the term 'rice' anymore. like i know what it means etc but its such an annoying word to hear to describe a vehicle. i mean, i say it too, but i guess hearing it a lot just gets annoying.

i'm excited to see what kind of fake numbers our car will put down in the movie with twin t88 turbochargers that magically spool up at idle.

So is the evo. The top evo hits 40k to so don't have elitist illusions about price keeping you out the rice stigma. The gt-r is 90k of extra long grain rice but its still a hot car.. I love the z design but I'm not gonna trick my brain into thinking its not a ricey car. I just don't care what domestic car lovers think about my import choices.

Fast and furious story lines suck, but the cars are the stars and the award will go to the hott riced out Z. FTW
