The Fast and Furious is one of the most-loved film series in the world. It was eighteen years ago since the first installment of the movie franchise aired on the silver screen and since then, its fanbase just keeps on growing.
People grew some love for the drama of the story-line, the actors behind their favorite characters, and of course, the cars used in the action-filled scenes.
With a total of eight films so far, it is a little bit hard to tell which vehicle shined the most. Perhaps, there are many to enumerate, but we’ll try to name some of the most impacting ones yet.
Twinkie’s Green Hulk 2005 Volkswagen Touran
After the fundamental trilogy, the filmmakers produced a standalone movie; The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift in 2006. And who can forget about Twinkie’s green Hulk 2005 Volkswagen Touran? It may not be the fastest and most furious car, but it’s definitely one of the most relevant ones.
Jesse’s 1995 Volkswagen Jetta A3
Meanwhile one of the pioneer race cars includes Jesse’s 1995 Volkswagen Jetta A3 from the first installation.
Many fans raised their eyebrows when he lost his dad’s car over Johnny Tran’s Honda S2000 in a race. If only he had listened to Brian’s counseling, he would not have to bid farewell from his white Jetta.
Letty’s 1971 Jensen Interceptor
One of the most exotic pieces in the movie series is Letty’s favorite ride. The 1971 Jensen Interceptor stared in Fast and Furious 6 in 2013. Built sometime between the years 1966 and 1976 by Jensen Motors, this vintage luxury grand tourer might surprise you on how fast it can run.
Letty’s 1965 Chevrolet Corvette C2 Sting Ray
The film series highlights not only the sporty-looking race cars but also takes pride in the beautiful and exquisite old-school ones.
In 2017, Letty got behind the wheels of the 1965 Chevrolet Corvette C2 Sting Ray. But this gem isn’t just about the pretty exterior. It can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in less than five seconds.
Takashi’s 2003 Nissan 350Z
Given the movie title, Tokyo Drift, Takashi’s 2003 Nissan 350Z surely qualifies with all the requirements needed.
With its 24-valve 3.5-liter twin-turbo DOHC V6, it produces up to 460 horsepower for that perfect drift.
Brian’s 1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R-R-34
The 1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R-R-34 made quite an impression to the viewers too. If your heart didn’t skip a beat during Brian’s bridge stunt in the 2 Fast 2 Furious, then you better audition as a stunt man for the upcoming new installments in the years 2020 and 2021.
The film series made a lot of people’s hearts happy. The fans enjoyed every second of each scene, while the filmmakers, crews, and casts earned a lot of money out of it. Apparently, the film boosted the market of the different automakers featured in the movies as well.
