great.. another F+F movie to further destroy the car scene.

I remember when the first movie came out and how quickly the jackasses just came out of the woodwork. See a movie then bam.. the car scene is where they want to be. .. Ruined it for those of us that grew up with and as real tried n true oil in the blood car folks.

Now because of that series of movies and the bullshit that followed, informal car gatherings are heavily frowned upon where as back in the day the police never even blinked an eye at us. Now days a parking lot or food establishment with a bunch of cars and people outside and the Police are all teeth and froth thinking they have "racers" on their hands.

Just look at all the street racing laws that found their way onto the books after those movies. Before that it was descrete, or kept to the track on wed/sat nights. Nope, not any more.

I own all 5 movies because its just another part of my "car" movie collection... but what that franchise did to the car enthusiast world is unforgivable.
