If you're thinking of posting a Fast and Furious thread

[Romeyo07]

Please dont...no one cares how funny it is/was, just let it die.

k thanks.

[uproot]

its not even out yet

[Romeyo07]

I mean all of the "making fun of 3 fast 3 furious" and variations thereof.

[B16a2 Civic]

it does get kind of old, i agree

[B16a2 Civic]

the trend these days is to hate anything that promotes the import scene

[ShooterMcGavin]

nice post :D

[Wurm]

the trend these days is to hate anything that promotes the import scene

yet 95% of the people on this board will probally be at the theater on opening day

[2.0civic]

not me...i gotta work. those bitches who go see it will say "oh i only did it to go see the ricers" or "i just wanted to see how bad it was" when deep down, they still have neons and have a "10 second" civic

[B16a2 Civic]

yup, you are right

[Wurm]

Im going I enjoyed the last 2 movies.

[2.0civic]

they actually were dececnt. i didnt love them by any means but at the time, they were some of the better movies out.

[B16a2 Civic]

i enjoyed them too, i mean not teh best movies out, but there havent been any other import type movies out to compare them too

[Romeyo07]

its going to be entertaining none the less...its these "oh no, there goes the scene" posts that get on my nerves.

[B16a2 Civic]

if anything, its just going to grow bigger, which is good for us, which means teh value of our car goes up

[2.0civic]

yup.

[DieselNuts]

I thought the first 2 movies were entertaining, but thats about it. You are right about the import scene getting bigger after the movie releases though. About the value of our cars going up, do you think it will only be for the RWD cause this movie is based on drifting?

[Ludester]

if anything, its just going to grow bigger, which is good for us, which means teh value of our car goes up

yeah... and increase the chances of these young kids going out on the streets trying to drift and end up killing themselves....

[B16a2 Civic]

i would think so, look how the value of Eclipses and Supras jumped after the 1st one, and the popularity of Evo's after the second, im thinkin 350z, ae86 and Rx7 will jump in popularity and prices.
But then again, cars that dont have a main role in the movie should jump just a lil, just having a hooked up import will probably gain a lil value, well, more then it is now, just cause of teh act that you know kids will go out and try and get that car, instead of working it up, they rather have afinished product

[Hulud]

no, just the things that destroy the import scene

[The Golden Child]

* fast and furious theme song *

[B16a2 Civic]

no, just the things that destroy the import scene


how will it be destroyed?

[Hulud]

how will it be destroyed?
destroy wasnt teh right word, but i mean the scene really went to shit after the first too, all these kids thinking they are fast and ricing out thier cars, and their cocky attitudes

You'll start seeing $2000 cars go for $4-5000.

cars were ricey before the first one, to me worst, atleast after teh movie, people starting buying more rims and interior work

[B16a2 Civic]

before fnf, people bought altezzas and window squiter lights and stopped there, astleast after the movie they starting buying more stuff and starting taking that shit off once they seen it wasnt cool to teh " scene"

[Hulud]

i dont think they were worse before, but also you cant deny the amount of street racing accidents went up after those movies

[DieselNuts]

maybe my car value will go up.....prolly not though since luxory has nothing to do with drifting...oh well...

[Ran]

maybe my car value will go up.....prolly not though since luxory has nothing to do with drifting...oh well...G35's are hot tho. However, since your car is already pretty d@mn expensive, I don't expect to see it's value go up much if at all. The majority of cars that will have their value go up will be in the lower priced and used spectrums. 240SX's, AE86's, RX-7's, and the such will probably get a nice boost.

oh yeah, i'll admit that, the idiots came out teh wood works, thats when i got full coverage insurance, but its a doube edged sword, take the good with the bad.
but to me, the cars in fnf werent that bad to me, i liked the Supra, the rx-7, skyline in both movies

[Hulud]

some of the cars in the 1st movie were ok but the movie brought out all the ricers out of the wood work

[B16a2 Civic]

it did, which made it easy to seperate the real tuners from teh fake

[Hulud]

but what im saying is that those kids still come out and ruin the good meets, and plus the cops crack down on modded cars imo

[Ran]

plus the cops crack down on modded cars imoI expect the harass level to go up about 45% after this movie is released.

[B16a2 Civic]

they can " harass" me all they want, but i have nothing to hide, if you stay on teh legal side of the scene, id ont see what the problem is, its good teh cops crack down, they are making it safer

[thinkfast®]

they harass me soon as I pull out the garage man.. they aint ready for the west coast..

:duece:

[GsrTurbo320]

[BTLFED]

As long as no innocent people get hurt, I say good. I am a firm believer in Natural Selection. If someone is that stupid, they need to get out of the gene pool anyway.

[ATK_Designs]

movie = entertainment = relaxing.

That's why I'll go see it, just as any other movies. I haven't see any movies in a year :(

So my new movies to see are: X3, 3F3F, MI3, Da Vinci Code, the Breakup.

Will prolly do so, starting this weekend :D

[The Ren]

I'll go see it for entertainment value.. Because thats what it is.. a movie for entertainment... and chris.. I couldnt agree with you more

I was watching MTV like a year or 2 ago and they had that show True Life doing a special on street racing. There were a shit ton of people out at some place chillin and were having a few races (f&f style). A bunch of cops ended up bustin it up and they caught about 15 peeps or so. It showed one cop walking around this dudes car and he gave him a ticket for everything that wasnt stock...Tint, Exhaust, Intake, Suspension, Headlights, Taillights....all in all, I think he ended up getting about 12 or 13 tickets.

I know if your not actin a fool, you prolly wont have anything to worry about, but just like the racial deal, people do profile.

[B16a2 Civic]

i mean im not worried when cop pulls me over, i have proof of insurance, car is registered, its not stolen, and if i do speed and get caught, i'll pay it, but i do see what you mean, i actually have a friend who is a cop, and he said the judge will throw almost anything out if its aftermarket unless your exhaust is too lound, have nitrous hooked up and have illegal tint, also having a sticker on your front windshield that is in the drivers vision can eb ticketed too

[DieselNuts]

picky picky picky

[Nitro]

not me...i gotta work. those bitches who go see it will say "oh i only did it to go see the ricers" or "i just wanted to see how bad it was" when deep down, they still have neons and have a "10 second" civic


funny!!!! but true :D

[HyPer50]

Eh, I'll admit that I liked, and still like the first F&F.. And I dont even drive an import (or care to really lol).. The movie was fine as long as you leave it as that, a movie... It's just when dumbasses tried to start emulating the movie that it became a problem. It's gonna be fun seeing all the parking lot drifters out on Barrett once #3 comes out. Guess I'll have to start taking some nails out to Barrett and tossing them in front of would be drifters... Damn near got sideswiped by one on Saturday (sadly it was somebody I know)... can't wait to see what it's like once the movie comes out. I'll never understand the drift fascination..

[Ran]

I'll never understand the drift fascination..Drive at an event and you'll know what the hype is about. :)
