well, just go watch the movie. VERY good. too bad the only lexus were a stock black GS and a white GS with the rod millen body kit. very nice cars including a yellow skyline.
all the immature kids who came out after watching the movie were revving their engines on the way out.

We couldn't even get close to the theater last night! Total traffic jam trying to get in to see The Fast and the Furious. We tried going to another theater to see it, but there were no more shows and there were about 10-15 cops and several ambulances and fire trucks b/c I think someone got stabbed at a restaurant right outside the theater.

Insanity!!!!

I think I'll wait a little while to go see it and give all the rice boys a chance to see first. I don't wanna deal with all the idiot drivers and people fighting.

How was the soundtrack in the movie? For some movies, the music can make or break it.

I just got home from watching, the soundtrack definitely helped set the mood throughout the movie. Might be a good one to keep in the cd changer!

Several nice cars in the movie including: 2 RX7 (Red, White), Yellow Skyline, Supra, Ferrari, tons of Civics, Integra and Eclipse. Correct me if I'm wrong BUT I didn't see any MR2 or 300zx. Good movie overall, but I don't like using NOS as a pure power.

yeah... it's just one of those movies that was interesting to WATCH (literally). but, even my girlfriend, who thinks fixing up cars is a waste of money, thought it was fun to watch although there isn't much STORY in it.

Default Saw the F&F too.....

.... Yep, It was a good movie But then, on my way home, there was this up-to-no-good-punk-kids in his black Dodge Neon w/ racing stripe (YUCK!) revved his engine at my M3 at the stop light .... And as soon as the lights turned green, I showed him that: You are the weakest link! GOOD BYE!

spekain of rice-whips - i was with my friend in his '95 vette w/enough mods, not too many...anyway, this yellow jetta - disgusting 3' wing(probably weighing/slowing it down) and a ricey exhaust + tints pulls up at the lights and starts revving....lmao - me and my friend smoked him...why embarrass yourself.

anyway - this movie makes me wanna street race. kinda like the 'gone in 60 seconds' effect - made me wanna highjack cars(especially the shelby gt500) ...more of my 2¢

ps - when is is300.net coming back??? i miss it and i will host the site myself if i have to
