I've always liked cars, but the F&F series solidified me wanting to modify my own. I was still in high school when the 1st F&F came out and didn't have a car. But I read a lot of 'tuner magazines' like Import Tuner and the like. I thought those were the coolest cars ever back then. Nowadays, I cringe at the sight of gaudy paint jobs and any sort of body kit. I, like most car guys not born in to it or introduced at a really young age, had a ricer phase. I've since grown out of it, and I prefer my cars subdued and understated. I now value handling and feel over sheer straight line acceleration and 1/4 mile times. I'll take a slow 911SC or a Carrera 3.2 over a 370Z any day of the week.
I'm sure many of you guys have matured in your tastes on how cars should be. But I can't help but think that the F&F series influenced a whole generation of would be car enthusiasts.
