We knew it was coming. But so far as per the trailer, nothing showing its going to be a ricer fest. The Gas gimmick is kinda amusing. The GN or (converted Regal) looks sweet.

I'll go see it, on principal.

Thoughts? Or just let the bashing begin!

MMMMM Jordana Brewster

Looks like a typical TFATF movie. Trucks spinning around and hooking up to a moving gas convoy and stealing 2 tanks of fuel? Yeah right.

Although I'm still a domestic v8 guy at heart, I have to say the new STI does look hot! (There's supposed to be one in the movie)

Yeah I don't think it was a real GN, I know you can't exactly go by the sound of it on the big screen but it didn't sound too me like a turbo v6. I'm sure there's gonna be ricers in it, there has too be, that seems to be what 90% of America is in to nowadays!!! I'm not sure if I'll go see it, I never seen Tokyo Drift, it looked kinda cool, but with all the exessive ricers in that movie made me not want to see it.

I can't blame you. The funny thing about it, is when all the queers with imports go to see these movies they all come out after the viewing,,start up their ricers and leave like a bunch of maniacs.
