Every Car In 'Fast & Furious' Series Explained By The Guy Who Built Them | WIRED

[Aggelostououranou]

Can we please get a 3 hour video with this guy getting into detail about all these cars? He literally says about 2 sentences about each car.

[LCTRstatic]

After the third movie it was never about cars anymore

[Casco]

this guy has one of the best jobs in the world

[doc_skrr]

So you don't waste your time, every description:
Name of the vehicle, "it really fit the character, " "it was a really cool car, "had a lot done to it." *Rinse and repeat*

[loadedpotato]

he's not going to tell us how he fit a 20 speed manual transmission inside these cars

[spinningbacksidekick]

When he actually talked about the cars, for those ten seconds or less, I'm free.

[dr.spectre]

I think Tokyo drift is such an underrated movie.

[WheresMyLasagna]

"the gtr, yeah Brian drove a gtr. It was good"
*Goes to next car*

But what about the fact that Hector is gonna be running three Honda Civics with Spoon engines.

[chasemorris]

How did he not mention the twin turbo 350z in Tokyo drift.... but mentioned twinkies ugly VW hulk van... wow

[sanny]

[dylanortiz]

What about Brian's sweet ass mini van?

[kylechalmers]

He doesn't even talk about the cars, he just says "and this car. And that car." I want specs

[iritr]

Legend says this guy test drove all those cars, granny shifting and not double-clutching like you should.

[BariNgozi]

So when is he gonna build the rocket ship for Fast & Furious 15?

[zackklapman]

Seems like they told him "sum up the car in 20 seconds." I'm sure he could talk about them for hours, but they corralled him for WIRED. They should do a longer, uncut version, for us car nerds.

[UItraVice]

I think Tokyo Drift was my favorite movie.
Although the main character is kinda dull, the story had its own vibe and style. The music, the car themes and even the race courses.
It reminded me of Midnight Club or Need For Speed Carbon.
I love it all to be honest.
