did anybody go to watch the premier at muvico in davie FL?? They had a nice little car show, but some of the cars where definetly not little...there were I believe two G's, both of which were FI, and complete show quality cars, also there was not one, not two, but THREE legalized s-15's, and what I THINK is the only legalized r-34 gt-r in south FL. I also saw an orange lambo there...I got pics, I'll post if anybody wants to see them...Unworthy mentions are all the riced out civics, crx's, rsx's, integras, accords, cavaliers, neons,(except srt4's ) and every other pos that showed up to spoil the night

didn't like F&F3
i wasted money goin' to see F&F3! the best thing about the movie were the cars. The Japanese girls looked ok....skinny as h3ll, but if that's what 'cha like. The story was absolute crap!! Wait for video. oh, and putting a 6 cyl in a muscle car complete with exhaust was wrong! (my opinion)

They had a show near ucf for the movie too, one side was civics and focus...es and the other side was all 240 FI Silvia Conversions...lol There are 3 JDM Skylines in central florida i know about so i know there are more than 1 in south florida. Recently saw a new black r32 skyline at waterford in ucf

?
Actually, Japanese people have always been interested in converting their cars into the "luxury" counterpart American brands, just like we (that live in America) have always been interested in converting our car to JDM. Their interest would be to convert their cars to our OEM mostly because of the rarity factor.
For example:
My friend's older brother (here in the States) rebadged his Lexus SC300 to Toyota Soarer (the Japanese counterpart).
However, if he was raised in Japan, he would already have the name Toyota Soarer, so he would have want to convert it to Lexus SC300.

the movie was by no means good, but it was definatley entertaining. They over did it with the 350z's there were so many of them. And the G35 was barely that glimpse of the orange one, but i still spotted it and got excited and made sure my gf saw it too lmao. But yea japanese girls are so hot.

One of my friends owns an Acura GSR and said every sicne F&F 1 and 2 his car has been broken into plently of times and people always try following him to see where he goes and whatnot... He told me after F&F 3 that the same will start happening to the 350z as well as the g35... i think thats ridiculous. What do you guys think?

just wondering

The answer - they think the letters (english) are 'pretty' and stylish...so lots of buildings, signs, etc have their names in "English" for looks only. Same with cars...they just like the looks of the English language visually compared to their own.
Strange huh?
