I think the fast and furious movies helped out the import scene. It made a lot of people want to get into it. Yes it created some idiots and ricers, but overall alot more people got into the scene. If it didnt, you would see that many more domestics out there.Another thing that is good is that it may have brought production cost down on certian items anyone that nows business expenses the more people that buy the cheaper the items will be ... good for us broke bitches

I think it brought out more idiots than it did "true" entusiasts. And I'm sure the movie will suck and there is NO way I'll pay any amount of $ to watch it. Just my $.02.

Didnt mind the first to movies, just another reason to take quotes from and use em in real life, like Napolean Dynamite.
I thought the movies were OK, enough that I bought the first one back in the day.
Neither Walker or Diesel are in this flick so thats a good sign for the haters.

I love the quotes, Especially quoting them in front of Tufte.

It only put a sour taste in the mouths of people were that were already into it and the newcomers didnt do everything by the book....

I feel that was more in the eyes of the people into imports that it gave more positive publicity, among the majority of the united states, I feel, people don't like the imports that do stuff or look like the cars are from the movie, hold a neighborhood meeting and bring it up, ask the officers in town, ask the people on this website, imports have a lot of bad publicity compared to Domestics. I hang out there to hang out with other car people. Back to the movie, this movie series is an import series, if a mustang stars in it, I will boycotte it. I will not spend money on it. If it's an import based movie, I'll rent it. If they made Bullitt 2 it would not be the same if they used a civic and a tiburon for the chase. Or similarly, a ferrari and a lamborgini. The point is it's not the movie series's demographic.

The bad publicity comes from all these kids who feel they need to race every living thing on a public road. I hate the fact that I can't even go to the local grocery store without somebody reving up on me.

Very seldom do I ever see that from a domestic, muscle car.

Well it doesnt matter what an idiot is driving, he is going to be an idiot. To stereotype everything to the fast and furious is ludacris. If we all drove domestics, there still would be stupid shit that goes on. Then we could compare it to some stupid domestic movie.
