Does anybody know when this movie is supposed to come out? I need to go ahead and prep.

Also, do you think we should start an application process to become a member after the movie goes out?

The last thing we need is 10,000 want to be drifters asking the same 5 questions every two days.

I wish I had the money to buy another one. Maybe I'll get myself a coupe before the movie comes out so I can choose to sell whichever one is in the movie and keep the other one.

Are you serious? I mean, I believe it, I'm just wondering. Thank you, ALOT, for not letting them use your car. It is probably the best looking hatch out there, in my opinion. There is no reason that it should be used in what will most likely be a craptacular movie. How would they pulled off using your car anyway? Isn't the movie set in Japan(RHD and sr20)? Either way, hopefully they don't just make a copy of your car and then everyone and their hampster will be selling "180sx silvia JDM drift fast and the furious 3 body kits."

Probably double the price for the s13'sand triple the price of 14's.

I can see people paying ridiculious amounts here soon.

I mean people get stupid over this ****.

THE ONLY advantage that this might possibly have is that if everyone, and I mean close to a million or so people really got onto a drifting kick, Nissan might do us right, and bring in the good stuff.

I doubt it though, like I said, car prices will probably double or triple, and engines are probably going to become pretty scarce pretty quick.

Hopefully there will be some S-chassis cars in the movie and out prices will skyrocket, but I know that Mitsubishi has a contract with them, so you never know, we could see new Eclipses drifting, lol.

Honestly, if the movie comes out and I can suddenly sell my Kouki for $15,000, I'd do it. I could get an S2000 for that.

am i retarded for not caring what f&f does?

most of the fan base by now is either going to be of the age group that wont be driving soon enough to buy a car anytime soon, too poor to afford a "good" 240 anyways, or too dumb to realize the aspects that separate 240s from other imports that they could buy cheaper.

at least thats what i tell myself to keep from getting wrapped up in this crap.

For starters there wont be any jumping into this one, The guy who made the first one (which honestly wasnt that bad) is making this one. While it does take place in Japan, I dont think they are actually filming there as they had the car casting call stateside. I think if anything they will have a lot of Hachi's, RX's and Supras in this one. If you all remember the crew in the first one had a Jetta, an R33, the RX, and a Maxima. While it would be nice to see some 240s in a movie, I really don't want the thefts and vandalism that come with that role. As far as inflatinig the prices for 240s...I dont know, there are too many of them on the market and once the movie comes out there will be even more because all the ricers will be wanting them and us anti-ricers will be geting rid of them. the interesting thing will be to see how it effects the drifitng community here states, granted it probably wont be as devastating as if the Initial D movie is released stateside.

There was an S14 in the first movie.

Vin Diesel's girlfriend drove it, I think. Then his sister drove the DC2.
