Opinions on this one?

As we all know....there will be a 3rd "fast and furious" movie or whatever. However, there is some controversy floating around, concerning one of the cars that will be in the movie. The only domestic vehicle will be a fastback Mustang.

The kicker is what is under the hood.....a Nissan Skyline inline 6 turbo motor

I aquired these pictures from this thread:

Probably the only mustang I would drive......;)

+1 on that^^^^

I forsee this thread leading to another ban for Pete, lol.

I don't really understand the point, but I give it points for originatlity.

[HandoEX]

I could not hate any car more than that! Give me a fucking break!

I'm going to call bullshit on this one. If you watch this video (some kid found out where they were shooting some scenes and decided to make his own video). You can clearly HEAR that there is definately NOT a skyline engine under that hood.

I'm sorry, but I can't watch the video as of now, I will just say I would be surprised, this has been up on several messageboards, some people "in the know" even outlined the "plot" of the movie, where it's something about drifting or some such thing, this person blows the v8 engine in this Mustang, and to finish competing in whatever you compete for when sliding your car around, swaps in this Nissan engine or whatever. I myself have no firsthand knowledge whether this is 100% verified or not, but if you are right, it would seem that a lot of people would be caught by surprise.

I thinks that they are really reaching for ideas on this one. Pretty lame.

[darkelvis]

uhhh, stormwalker, you can do a simple search in google (or even here on fargostreet) and the whole plot is outlined already.

ya that is pretty funny, but not as funny as a 94 supra with a rb26 in it

Kinda suprised to see a domestic in F&F3, since the setting is in Japan...

I guess I have not taken any time to do any research on fast and furious movies. Hard to find the motivation to do that.

[darkelvis]

good point.

yeah but theres a difference...thats the ultimate super tuner car...im guessing you are referring to Top Secret's white supra?

[out there]

even with my laptop speakers, i can tell that is not a turbo inline 6 engine. i'm no expert on v8s, but it definitely sounds like one.

[94NDTA]

Gay as holy hell.

I would pee on that If I saw it.

The guy who took them pics must be photoshop genius if it's fake.
The F&F guys will do anything to sell a movie and putting a skyline motor in a mustang isn't beyond them. I guess we'll see when the movie comes out.
