Top Vehicles In the Fast & Furious Franchise Ranked
by Lewis Robinson
There are many reasons fans love the Fast and Furious movie franchise. Some people love the action. Some tune in for their favorite stars. However, almost everyone loves the series' iconic cars. These are the top nine.
1. Suki's Honda S2000 From 2 Fast 2 Furious
All of these high-tech cars feature lots of gadgets and gears, such as general purpose relays, but Suki's Honda S2000 is one of the most stunning looking. The pink interior and exterior even match Suki's costume in the movie. This car isn't just awesome because of its good looks. It also performed impressive feats, such as jumping a drawbridge and continuing to drive, even though the entire front end got ripped off.
2. Mk4 Toyota Supra From The Fast and the Furious
This is one of the original classics. It's the 10-second car that forged the bond between Dom and Brian in the conclusion of the original film. Without this car, none of the rest of the things fans love about the series would have ever happened. This car got a new look and appeared as Slap Jack's ride in the sequel.
3. Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R From 2 Fast 2 Furious
This car may have lost out to Suki's S2000 in these rankings, but it beat it in the film. It is also one of the most recognizable cars in the film series. This car is gone, thanks to an EMP harpoon, but not forgotten as the star of the "Turbo-Charged Prelude" that links the first and second films in the franchise and helps flesh out Brian O'Connor's character.
4. Dodge "Ice Charger" From The Fate of the Furious
Vin Diesel's iconic character, Dom Toretto, has driven several versions of the Dodge Charger throughout the series. The "Ice Charger" is one of the more memorable versions. It features a mid-engine V8, can be driven on ice and packs a giant EMP.
5. Veilside Mazda RX-7 Fortune From The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift
Tokyo Drift is not the most popular film in the series, but it did produce one of the best cars with this slick-looking Mazda. While this car is far from a standard-issue FD Mazda RX-7, you can order one from the Japanese company, Veilside. It is sold as the "Fortune kit."
6. Koenigsegg CCXR From Fast Five
This is one of the more exotic entries in the franchise. Criminal kingpin Roman Pearce claims it is the only one of its kind in the Western hemisphere, only to be proved wrong when Tej Parker pulls a nearly-identical car out of the garage.
7. Ford Escort RS1600 From Fast & Furious 6
The Ford Escort isn't exactly known as a high-end street racer, but this one made a brief, but memorable appearance. It wasn't featured in any race scenes, but it did get one of the most iconic jumping scenes when Brian O'Connor used it to take out a tank on a Spanish roadway.
8. Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport From Fast Five
This roadster steals the show in the opening sequence of Fast Five as one of several classic cars stolen by the family in a train robbery. While its debut in the series was memorable, it was also brief, as the film version ended up soaring off a cliff and into a lake after a police chase. While the replica used in that scene met its fate on screen, the real car was later sold at auction for a rumored $100,000.
9. Ford F150 SVT Lightning From The Fast and the Furious
This entry from the original film is the only truck to make this list. Unlike most of the other vehicles in this list, this V8-powered truck had few modifications from its real-world equivalent.
Conclusion
There is no doubt that the iconic cars from the Fast & Furious series are just as important as the series' stars. These souped-up speedsters are responsible for some of the most exciting sequences in this iconic action franchise.
