One of the big questions on everyone's mind is whether or not The Fast and the Furious will feature any cars from the first two films. We hate to disappoint you, but the answer is "no". However, you can come pretty close to building the cars you saw from the first two films. All the parts are on hand, but for some reason, NamcoBandai didn't include the infamous Troy Lee Designs-made graphics in the game. Fast and Furious fans are sure to be bummed out by this, while people with taste won't really miss the Troy Lee Designs graphics one bit.
To show you how close one can come to recreating the original movie cars, check out this Supra. It has the same color, TRD hood, Bomex body kit and more. You know what, the car actually looks good without the obscene amount of stickers on the side.
We've also got a replica of the green Evo found in 2 Fast 2 Furious. Again, it's the same car, aero kit, etc. - it just isn't ugly.
Now that we've got that out of the way, we can focus on some of the cooler cars found in the game. The Fast and the Furious features some of today's concept cars - and they are fully tweakable. This Lexus LF-A concept is a boss car in the game, meaning that once you beat this guy, you can drive his car all you want. If you hate the looks of this LF-A, you can buy your own and make it JDM-Tight.
Muscle cars don't have a major presence in the game (it does take place in Tokyo), but the game's producers made sure to include a few pieces of classic American muscle. Here we've got a Dukes of Hazzard-ready 1969 Dodge Charger. No, you can't add a Confederate flag to the top of this car.
Probably the coolest car in The Fast and the Furious is the Spoon Sports Honda S2000. Spoon has decided to throw its hat into the drifting world, and The Fast and the Furious game is actually the first public showing of this new D1 car. The aero kit you see here was designed by Spoon specifically for its drift efforts. The real-life car has undergone some changes since this in-game model was designed, but the Spoon car that will be competing in D1 will look very close to this one.
Pictures are nice and all, but to get the full effect of these cars, you need to see them in motion. We've got a movie for each one of these cars in our Media Page, so be sure to click over there. We've also got a ton of detail shots of each of these cars, so those of you with an aversion to moving pictures will have something to enjoy as well.
