so does anyone else think this movie is going to murder the drift scene, just like the first one how all the dumbass's got some "super sweet" civics, now everyone is going to buy whatever "cool" car they see driftin in the movie...and then we are going to have a bunch of idiots trying to drift on public streets
idk guys this is just how i feel about the movie..i mean im sure some of the drifting will be cool on account it was done by actual D1 drifters, but its just ganna blow everything up and destroy the drifting scene i think?

i say the movies a bad idea:nono: but i guess we'll see what happens

The "drift scene" has already been murdered, everyone is already trying to buy "super sweet" drift cars, and there are already idiots drifting on public roads.

The movie isn't going to change anything.

That has to be the most unhetero thing I've heard all week.

I hope the upgrade is for a family...:)

Hahah... Oh I know all about roof rack riding. Although I never did it, I was the one driving, a buddy of mine rode the roof rack on our old Pathfinder, to mess with him I went up a curb and jumped off it, he caught air and crushed his twig and berries on the roof rack.

The howl of pain was priceless. :rofl:

I actually haven't seen the price go up at all, at this point I want it to but realistically, no. I used to think the supra price skyrocketed but it was already a lot of money out of the box.

its skyrocketed here. i sold my rusted out half running blue 240 with no heat for $1900.
the guy is going to fix it up some and try to sell it for 4k or more after "the movie" comes out.

a couple 240s for sale around here...

1990 w/SR swap, stock motor, kyb struts, ebay BOV----------$7,000

1995 red, 99k miles, gunmetal FN01s, IHE--------------------$6,250

1992 white, 160k miles, average shape, automatic-------------$2500

1995, 5speed, 187k miles, black, cheap rims------------------$5,400

black 1998, SR swap, red advan SA3As, origin bodykit(unpainted) 12" sub, amp, some upgrades(looks like apex'i exhaust, IC piping, ect)--$7700

the last one isnt a horrible price, but the car looks nasty. not clean or well done at all. (notice the woodgrain dash...huh?)

The aftermarket industry loves the F&F franchise. The sad thing is that most of the drifting in that movie is done with CG. I can just see it now. All the kids saying "If you aint out of control, you aint in control".....(me pukes)

not the silver Z drifting up the parking ramp. thats actually rhys millen in an actual silver Z. but the drifting that wasnt CG was done using staged traffic in southern california.

I heard that, and also that a lot of the stunts are real. Only some FX for safety concerns.

Are you talking about Rhys or Bow wow? now i'm confused. I didn't see the movie yet, just defending it blindly and by what i read.

I went and saw it last night, not a bad movie. The best part of the whole movie though was the main character practicing in a red Evo in a dockyard and you see two guys fishing, after he crashes a few times you get a close up of the fisherman and one of them is none other than Keiichi Tsuchiya the drift king himself. Sad thing was though that I was the only person in the theater who knew who he was, oh well I got a kick out of it.
