When the franchise was focused on cars first

would love to hear the explanation for how the PT Cruisers made it into the scramble scene🤣

i think the camaro /challenger duo was better than the MR2s... i can't imagine those macho big dudes driving an mr2 😂 plus it's a nice break of pace and perfectly reflects their characters 🎉

The Nissan story blows my mind. Very smooth Nissan, very smooth.

The Shelby Cobra being denied seems wild... Perfect for an ejecto seato!

At least the nissan 350z was used in tokyo drift. Its probably better that it was used in tokyo drift because that cars handling is extremely good at drifting.

Yup, the Chally & Camaro, perfect adversary cars. Ya can't just JDM the entire franchise.. thankfully Dom & Letty mostly ran classic muscle & especially Mopars. The SRT4 shudda been a regular in the series..ofc yes, the R34 & GTR's in general are THE Brian cars, aha..but the SRT4 was a major force and a solid streetracer pick..it still is. My pal Jenna has one..a slightly bigger 'wheel' than stock & a lil extra boost and she's at 375hp. But..the sky is the limit on those cars..her (major dbag :p) ex has a 700hp SRT4. Terrifying fast. 1st gen Neons ruled Showroom Stock Class C back in the 90's with no turbo..they're capable lil beasts.

Oh man, did anyone else see the Mk4 Supra someone destroyed at 6:00?? I’d love to see where it’s at today and the hate it brings 😂

The 350Z ended up debuting in the movie as Suki's vinyl concept drawing.

I always wondered why there was just a random Shelby Cobra included in the original toy line. Now, it makes sense. As cool as it looks, I think it was a good call scrapping it. It's too "classic" if that makes sense. It sticks out hard compared to the mostly modern selection of cars.The only role I could see it fitting without looking out of place is as a one-off background car parked outside of Verone's mansion, kinda like the "Ferrari in the driveway."

I like your original plans for the cars you wanted to use in the 2nd movie. The MR-S and Subaru WRX would've been awesome.

Saw a lot of 7th Gen Celica in the old footage. I wonder what would've happened if it made a bigger appearance other than being a background car.

Nsx would have been awesome as a main vehicle.

Would have loved to see a 350z in 2 fast 2 furious, I daily a 2003 350z and I love the car it’s awesome

Wow that Hyundai is fugly. Dude needs to be in jail for modifying that pos.

6:00 what the fuck

If I recall correctly, a car that used to be affiliated with Team Allstars was Bill Kohl's Monica Integra from FF1. Team Autobots was involved in FF1, Allstars with FF1,2, and another Team significantly shown in FF2 was Team Jade! 🤓 I loved goin to movies in early 00s, love F&F and the cars, love to nerd out. 🍿 Craig's channel is like having endless dvd extras for some of my favorite movies. Keep them comin! edit: I forgot to mention in my comment Team ArTnMotion, Craig was in that club, as well as the RJ de Vara family.

Not using those AC cobras is sad they have got to be one of the most beautiful cars ever made and the replicas I have to admit look even better than the real thing

Craig, thank you again for bringing this car history to us. I love your sense of humor too! Keep the videos coming!

I might be mistaken but I think the original kit was designed by TRD for a concept. This looks like a very wonky copy/imitation of that kit. I assume the kit was inspired by F1 cars, similarly to what Mercedes were doing in the early 2000s with the SLR and SLK.

Could you imagine what could have happen with the 250z culturally if it was Brians car instead of the R34?

8:13 The Focus with flames is a crazy addition to the movie. I always thought it was just a cheesey Focus, but its 1 of 3 FR200's built.

I’m glad the Nissan guy dropped the ball.

Something similar happened to Grand Theft Auto IV there was going to be a Russian actor that was going to play Neko but he turned it away cuz he said that video games were not for him so since he saw that this game made billions of dollars he regrets it now

4:11 A Monoposto Miata? I thought those were only concepts, did Mazda officials pull up to the event?

Amazing Video.......❤❤❤

Tom Ngo's silver Rx7 @ 4:02. I loved that car when I was younger.

For an organized daytime car meet it's mandatory to have it hosted in an area with seemingly infinite space. Every single car show I've been to that wasn't a classic car drive-in had filled lots, gone across the street in every which way. After the fourth lot would be filled, typically people just pass by with their pride n' joy however don't attend with lack of space. A typical mall lot just barely cuts it. Night meets thrown together on a whim at last moment? No worries. It's usually average Joe traffic cars and a truck taking up 8 spots. Maybe.

the original car casting sounds so much better than what we got

Someone needs to forward this to the Nissan guy, and current Nissan America execs.

Craig it's a shame that the last generation Toyota MR2 didn't make it into the film and that car was amazing I don't know if you executed the color choice and the body kit but it was a beautiful looking car and that is a shame that it didn't make it into the movie. I had a 7th generation Celica for about almost 15 years and it's a shame that that car didn't make it into the movie although I never could confirm the car in the background , Tokyo drift in the garage looks like a 7th generation Celica.
