I think it's pretty funny how some people offered $0.01 for the car. That car definitely looks shitty and not worth $80K.

If that was in front of my house, I'd pay to have it towed away.

I had a car phone like that back in 1989, with Bell Atlantic Mobile as the carrier (aka Verizon Wireless' predecessor). I thought I was 'da bomb' with my car phone.......in a Ford Escort.

So many things wrong w/ this car...

First, who ever spent 150K on that pile of crap should be shot...

It's an automatic and the nitrous isn't hooked up (poseurs)... :shakehead

I don't care what movie it was in, or what child actor owned it, a turd is still a turd...

Fast and Furious movies are incredibly accurate and realistic.

Doesn't Frankie Munez roll around in a Z8?

oy.

I remember seeing an interview with the kid that played jesse, and he kept saying how fast the car is in real life. I guess now we know why all the cars in the movie had the same turbo spooling and blow off valve sounds.

The more I look at those pics, the more I realize that the current Jetta is SOOOOO much nicer. $10 says an R32 powered current gen Jetta could probably walk that TFATF monstronsity. (If only VW produced an R32 Jetta. )
