nba1341 · May 16th, 2008, 02:57 AM

itali stang basically coverd it word for word but you gotta admit if you do it right those things can be quick with way to much money and way to much work involved for me

Before FF, there were import tuners. and a small percentage of ricers that thought stickers and a wing a racecar made. FF made import tuning trendy, and the ratio of tuners (that knew what they were doing) to ricers swung dramatically towards the idiot side of that equation, and has never quite recovered.

yeah i have to admit after watching F&F i thought those were the sickest cars ever. But then i rode in my First Cobra 5 years ago or so and i stepped into reality haha.

The Domestics should really make a rebuttal movie.

There was rumors about making a remake of the bullitt movie. I think it would be a sweet idea but it's not going to be implemented because no one could fill Steve McQueen's shoes in that movie. But I say we should make a similar movie with a car chase like that

.

Onemanzu · May 16th, 2008, 08:17 PM

they promoted ricers... the idea behind supping up a civic was always there, fast and the furious encouraged huge wings and what not

atlacatl213 · May 16th, 2008, 08:26 PM

Hey having a big ass wing is cool... its just good enough to to have a picnic behind the car

and I guess you could use the soda can exhaust as a potato launcher so its not all bad... right?? right??

ItaliStang · May 16th, 2008, 08:29 PM

I've heard the new F&F has more of domestics...

I would love to see a movie with the new muscle cars coming out... the new mustang, camaro, challenger... but that's a longshot...

Onemanzu · May 16th, 2008, 08:32 PM

fast and the furious 4 is suppose to have a lot of current cars... i don't see why/how cause it takes place relatively the same time period as the second one... i think or maybe its a prequel to the first ... eff it who knows

the problem with that is tfatf movies lean towards the import crowd...

we all know damn well in the first one the big block would have toasted the import..

^ that would be an awesome idea. Movie producers should take their head out their asses and make a movie that is actually for car folk and not pop culture gimmicks and shit.
