Oh no our beloved GTI is going to be The Fast and the Furious 3 ... guess we'll be seeing some riced out GTIs around in the future :biggrin: These are pics captured from the set or something.

Ugh... If I do end up getting this car and then F&F3 comes out.... I'll be pointed out by people saying, "there goes one of dem fast and furious cars, wow-wee!" I can feel the shame right now :iono:

I'd be ashamed if I had the mini truck/car behind it! :)

No one will be saying "woo-wee" for that!

Looks like it has custom (more flared) fenders??

I can only hope for two things. 1- It won't be a prominent car, that way if the movie was like the last one we won't have to hear about it. My friends with evo's are still trying to live it down. 2- The car will kick ass in the movie. Look what it did for the RX or the Supra in the first one. Maybe now our beloved cars will get the respect they deserve.

IMHO F&TF is the most rediculous bad influence by a poorly edited and overly glorified movie in the history of mankind.
Not only are kids supposed to think street racing is cool, but also that ricing out a VW is sweet. Great. Thanks Hollywood.

Couldn't have said it better myself. It is indeed sad news.:frown:

I don't care so much about the Golf being in F&F 3 because I know that the real Golf and GTI lovers will have cars that looks SO much better than that movie-Golf

Actually, that GTI isn't all that "riced".
That rear vent, aft of the rear tire, is kinda silly. If it actually had brake cooling ducts then maybe it's useful. However, that's probably the only thing that looks bad.
The rest of it isn't too bad. I'd have to see the wing with the car on the ground to see how it looks. The ground kit looks pretty good and the drop looks nice too. Decent straight paint, no whacked color schemes or stickers.
Not too bad.

Looks like they're making a Japanease set. The VW is the only non-Japanease car there. The color is more prominant as well. I'll pay the $10 to see a GTI beat all those Japanease cars :wink:

I looks photo shopped sitting on the transporter,appears that much brighter than the other cars.

Horizon

That's probably because the car is red.... whereas the others are in drab colors.

wow, it does look like a Renault Clio!!

Hey, i like it regardless!

Hmm, sad...I hope its not a prominent car if it goes down the same road as the jetta did...we all remember that from the first one...the jetta ended up losing to that S2000

But that's because the guy had 100K under the hood. :laugh: :barf:

A Jetta would lose to an S2000.

It's just a movie, albeit a poorly done movie, still it's just a movie.
And, it had some really cool cars in it, nothing wrong with that.

The EVO doesn't suffer because of the movie. Evo owners have to explain because of that dumb a$$ rear wing just like the STI. I personally LOVE the EVO and the STI and if I owned one I would care less what people who don't know cars think. That goes for the GTI even if it's yet another weak movie with cool cars. :cool:

I agree with you on all points... I should have put quotes around my post.

The first movie was entertaining... the second was heinous (I'm a sucker for bad movies).

The best scene in the second was where they were doing that drag race in the middle of the night to win that muscle car.. sweet scene!

Where Brian does the "chicken" trick with the driver of the blue car and the guy loses

Yawp! although cheesy, i think that was the least cheeseball moment of the whole movie! Oh and also, did you guys notice the Eclipse in that movie had the sound of a Flat Boxer Engine, probably sound clips taken from a WRX!

No, I didn't noticed that because I don't even know how a real Eclipse engine sounds

I have a picture of another gold Golf with that same kit at home, I'll load it up when I get to my computer, I'm going to go against the grain and say it dosnt look half bad, nothing I would do, but I like it.

Very true. I also read that the movie will take place in Japan and will be based around drifting. Not sure how the GTI will play a part in any of this:iono:

I have to say that the Golf in F&F3 ain't no GTI but a R32. On some pics of it you see it with his hood open and then you have a look on a V6 engine

Bouston
02-18-2006, 04:51 AM
I'm confused :help: . Will this R32 ever come to the US? Or is just exclusive to certain countrys(UK & Germany)?

GTI2007
02-18-2006, 04:59 AM
I don't know. I hope for you americans that it comes to you in 2007. We in Belgium have the mk 5 R32 already in our showrooms

Bouston
02-18-2006, 05:01 AM
Know where I can find specs on the MKV R32?

try http://www.volkswagen.co.uk/new_cars/new_golf_hatch/r32 or else http://www.volkswagen.de/vwcms_publish/vwcms/master_public/virtualmaster/de3/modelle/golf/golf0/zahlen___fakten/technische_daten.html The last site is in German and look there for the 184 KW (250 PS) V6 4Motion in the "Benzin" row

it looks ordinary to me. rice is 20 stickers and chrome wheels with a aluminum wing. That car looks slightly modified.

oh my bad r32 still in my opinion i dont like it at all and i am talking about the red one on the first page:thumbdown: the gold one has a rediculous hoodscoop

edit: ALL I GOTTA SAY IS THE VW'S IN THIS MOVIE BETTER OWN EVERYTHING REASONABLE
