Im going to watch it Friday!!!! No matter how cheesy it could be I wouldn\'t care so long as it has a supercharged r/t charger. My most favourite car, only way I could afford one is if I sell 2 kidneys!

Saw this earlier. I did enjoy it but i felt like the storyline had shied away from its street racing roots and was more of a oceans 11 style film.
 The cars were nothing to shout about either, i caught a glimpse of a supra, scoob and that new lexus plus a few muscle cars, apart from that it was pretty conservative.
No rx7s im afraid did see an 8 for about a second tho.
On the plus side you have all the characters from the previous films which was cool. 7/10
 
As i drove out i did a mini burnout to the amusement of a large crowd:3gears-rh:3gears-rh:3gears-rh:3gears-rh:3gears-rh:3gears-rh:3gears-rh good times!!!!

Me and our lass just saw this tonight (well last night and this morning - lol) and we were by far the oldest 2 in there.
 
Cinema was pretty empty. Film was good - some nice stunt driving - and I guess like you there were some youngsters playing drag race down the A30 afterwards - could easily have burned both the van and saxo - if they would have been courteous enough to wait the obligatory 5-10 minutes warmup - :bandit
 
Still - won\'t spoil the plot - but there will definitely be another film based on the ending. ;)

I want to see this, need to find a cinema in Cyprus that is in english. Although i would have thought it would be anyway perhaps with Greek subtitles...

Don\'t want to spoil the plot or anything but who thought the part where vin diesel saves the universe from destruction with his dodge charger was the best part of the film??!!!

There wasn\'t a huge abundance of cads inthis film but as with all the previous ones there is only one that matters. DODGE CHARGER R/T 500 CI HEMI SUPERCHARGED!!!

I think the only reason they had old skool was because the film is another prequel therefore the film makers couldn`t build imports with the latest bodykits trends etc. As an action film i liked it, as a fast furious film s**t.

I do beleive the lexus ISF came out after Tokyo drift was released so the time line is irrelevant. And the 2 koniseggs arethe new one that is coming out soon I think? I may be wrong.

Did anyone notice the old skyline that walker was driving around covered in dust like it was an old crappy car? I thought that was a good touch as most people, even skyline fans wouldn\'t have known what that car was.

Good point about the lexus, that car is less than a year old! I couldn`t of told you that beat up banger was a skyline tho, well spotted.

I first thought it was a crappy car but on the second shot I saw the back and saw the trade mark skyline rear lights. Extremely rare car by the way
