modified cars, anyone?


In 2001, came out a movie which has become my favourite movie of all time.. since i'm a car lover, so the movie has got to do with cars! yup, it's the "The Fast and The Furious"

This is the synopsis for the movie :-

The Fast and the Furious takes you inside the thrilling world of street racing. Vin Diesel stars as Dominic Toretto, a gang leader who is accused of hijacking trucks and stealing over a million dollars worth of electronic equiptment. The FBI sends LAPD officer Brian O'Conner(Walker) undercover into Los Angeles' street racing circuit to take down Toretto and his team. As O'Conner becomes part of Toretto's life and gets involved with his sister, Mia (Brewster) he tries to prove that Toretto is innocent.

Then in 2003, came a sequel of the first movie which is "2 Fast 2 Furious" BUT it's totally un-related.
So below is the synopsis for it :-

Paul Walker returns in this action filled sequel to 2001's The Fast and the Furious. Brian O'Conner (Walker) has left LA due to his illegal actions from the first movie and now soars the streets of Miami making money here and there by street racing. Watched by Customs Agent Monica Fuentes(Mendes), Brian is caught by the police and is given a deal by Agent Markham and Bilkins to go undercover and try to bring down drug lord Carter Verone (Hauser)in exchange for his criminal record to be erased. Brian agrees but only if he is given permission to choose his partner. Brian heads home to Barsto, Arizona where he recruits an old friend Roman Pearce (Tyrese)to help him. Pearce agrees but only for the same deal Brian was offered. With the help of Monica, Brian and Rome work together to take down Verone.

And after 3 years of waiting, TA DAH! the recent "The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift".. this time the movie is even better.. just ignore the whole storyline or the characters development thingy, just focus on the cars.. such beauties.. *drooling* the action are superb! now i wanna learn how to drift.. anyone, can borrow me his car to crash? haha..

Okay, here's the storyline :-

Sean Boswell, who has always been an outsider. A loner at school, his only connection to the indifferent world around him is through illegal street racing -- which has made him particularly unpopular with the local authorities. To avoid jail time, Sean is sent out of the country to live with his dad in the navy, in a cramped apartment in a low-rent section of Tokyo. In the land that gave birth to the majority of modified racers on the road, the simple street race has been replaced by the ultimate pedal-to-the-metal, gravity-defying automotive challenge ... drift racing, a deadly combination of brutal speed on heart stopping courses of hairpin turns and switchbacks. For his first unsuccessful foray in drift racing, Sean unknowingly takes on D.K., the "Drift King," with ties to the Yakuza, the Japanese crime machine. The only way he can pay off the debt of his loss is to venture into the deadly realm of the Tokyo underworld, where the stakes are life and death.

Drag or drift? if i were to choose, of course drift.. these 3 movies are just awesome.. the cars and the babes.. *sizzling HOT* if you think these 3 movies are totally not related, then you're wrong.. at least the 1st and the current movie are somehow related.. in a way.. *wink*

So, for the new Tokyo Drift trailer, click here!
