yesterday, i was on the freeway in Los Angeles. As i was looking out the window, i suddenly saw a truck with a bunch of ricer cars. as i passed it, i saw that they were 4 SILVIA S15'S all DARK BLUE with ORANGE vinyl across the sides stretching from the front fender to the rear quarter panel. at first, i just thought they were s15's but i figured that since fast and furious 3 was filming here in downtown la this month, and they were gonna use 15's, i was certain that they were the cars that were going to be in the movie.

More gay gang stuff like the black CRXs in the first one?

Here are some I saw around Universal Studios last month...

These were hidden in the private lot at Universal...were they from either of the 1st two? Cause they look like they might be used in 3F3F...

sweet? its rice... watever. The orange Supra and red Rx-7 where used in the 2nd movie, (yes i watched it, horrible what they do to those cars). None of those movies ever appealed to me. A bunch of ricers flying around streets trying to get themselves killed, the new one shouldn't be much better.

As for the s15's they need a lot of the same cars to film a movie so it is probably a bunch of stunt double cars rather than the gang nonsense.

Rice is ok if you back it up with some power. The reason there was 4 of them was probably because they use more then one. In the filming of dukes of hazzard, they used i think 6 chargers for general lee. And they were black civics in the 2nd one.

P.S. Did the second one have anything to do with racing cause if it did, I missed it.

In Dukes of Hazzard, they had to total the General Lee after every jump...it would just destroy the undercarriage...so for every jump in that show, there is a General Lee rusting away somewhere....

THats what I mean, they use multiple cars to represent one car.

well. i did notice that they all had tinted windows. most likely to hide the stunt drivers' faces. as for the copies of the cars, well, they do need stunt cars.. 1 hero car, 1 buck car, and 2 stunt cars. btw, i never notice that this topic was so popular amongst us.

that purple eclipse that tyrese drove in the second fast and furious was up near me at a local car shop. (exclusive automotive) last time i checked its now sitting at volo auto museum. i think they were selling it for 40 g's. they also have the supra, rx7, evo and s2000 and another note in the first one that ''gang'' of black cars with the green underglow were not crx's, they were civics. here is the link to volo http://volocars.com/showroom/showroom.php?make=MITSUBISHI&syear=1900&eyear=2006

some one thought there were CRX's, wow, thats sad.....................i didnt even catch that, i knew that they were civicshahha yeah i know pretty damn sad. it was 89sunbird or something on the first page. he says something about the gang of black crx's in the first one. i dont know how you can mix that up they are clearly civics. and he has to be talking about the civics because thats the only gang of black cars in it.
