And I was using "Ricer" to define the drivers of the Japanese imports. Our ages ranged from 58 (me) down to around 19. MY point is that there are jerk gearheads from every genre of automobile enthusiast. Movies may pique the interest in a certain type of car or scene for a while but it will only influence a small percentage of jerks who already exist to do stupid stuff and damage the reputation of the group as a whole.

I am not concerned about the BRZ being in F&F and getting a bad rep. I am more concerned about the car getting stuck on the high insurance rate list due to the lack of driving experience of many people who purchase this car. That is especially the case when it seems the majority of young people that buy this car have never driven a RWD car before.

I will go see F&F and enjoy it for what is is: Cars and over the top stylized special effects meant to entertain.

True... but go on YouTube and type in "Cars and Coffee Shelby Cobra crash."

Yup, that's the one. And every Irvine Cars & Coffee now has an Irvine PD car posted up right across the exit.

Yeah, that one was bad. I remember that one. It was funny how the guy watching was like, "I knew it."

Not that I'd say no if one was givin to me.. Luckly it was only a kit and glass not a real deal cobra.. I've been in a kit cobra and it had a supercharged big engine I don't remember.. But even in third it would spin the tires.. And he just about spun the tires every single time he kept off the clutch it was a 4 puck and like a on off switch..

But that's expected with light cars with larger displacement motors with gobs of torque down low and older tires that don't quite have 2013 levels of grip.

Where did the F&F quotes go?

Re-watch that scene and witness the Nissan go back-and-forth between race seats and standard POS cloth seats.

GO FETCH MY CAR.
