Actually, you’re wrong…

They used a total of 6 normal 1967 Ford Mustang Fastbacks, 5 were V8 powered which were the stunt vehicles that were beat on and crashed etc. and the 6th was an actual RB26 swapped Fastback that was Rhys Millen’s, which got all the credit. It made 340whp, and ran 13.5 @ 110mph.

I know, but I read an article on all the cars used in the Fast and Furious movies and that was just a stat given about that particular car. Just like that black '69 Charger in the first movie, the one used in the scene had a fake blower hanging out of the hood, and that orange Supra used was actually pretty legit with a big single, 76gts.

The worst of both worlds?

American muscle is the best thing about American muscle, and handling and lightweight are the best things about Japanese cars… right?

V8 + FC \> 2jz + Camaro

buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut, it’s still a cool swap props for taking a different path.

The interior sucks and the car isn’t low enough. You guys are like "ewwwwww a jap motor in a camaro… gay… " Who gives a fuck? It’s not like the thing was a limited production numbers matching car that got swapped… You can scoop up a clean 1st gen roller for like 5-7 grand! I think the car is cool, the swap was done nicely, paint looks good…
