To be fair, apart from tokyo drift, they are a really good watch. You just need to see past the cheesy and very unrealistic bits

Also interesting to see that 'street racers' or 'cruisers' or whatever are still using the same car too. Integras, 200sx, civics, s2000 etc. Just shows not a whole lot has changed in 11 years. Not too many Jettas about though lol

I think they use a lot of hondas because they can shoot a scene without changing gear. IE when mia took mr arizona out for a spin you didnt see her take her hands off the wheel

Always remember being on probation at the time of this film and saying in my pre sentence report " I live my life a quarter mile at a time" lol didn't go down well when it popped up in court what I had said.

The reason for her bizarre twisting and turning of the wheel is actually that the actress never drove a car before F&F.
Also, Paul Walker was really in to street racing prior to making this and actually acted as an advisor on the first two films. A few of his cars, including the Skyline from the beginning of 2F2F are his own.

Not to dispute that or anything but it's a bit odd that this fact in't mentioned in the 'choosing the cars' footage on the special edition DVD. Not sure if that was the actual title but it was that guy that starts Jessy's race in the Jetta at racewars - he was the man responsible for choosing the cars, mods and design.
I would imagine it might have something to do with them not wanting to admit Paul Walker is actually into streetracing but I'd have thought the fact the Skyline is his car would have been included
edit, it's not his own car, just similair. Paragraph 2 of this - http://www.modified.com/features/0412_sccp_paul_walker_2001_nissan_skyline_gtr_vspec_ii/viewall.html

Fuck off, it was something I found odd and wanted to find out out of curiosity. Me pointing out the guy got a fact wrong is serious in the literal sense but not in the way you're implying. Feel free to throw in a couple of non sensical cliquey comments if it'll make you feel better though
