I figure if that kinda magic work again for the Z I might be able to make enough selling my Z to put down a really nice down payment on a GTR or 450z(wishful thinking).
I doubt the movie will affect the value of the Z.

The 350Z:

1. There is at least 200,000 of active Z's running around.
2. You can still buy a new 350Z.

The Supra:

1. There are roughly 10,000 of used Supra's running around.
2. The Supra's last model year sold was 1998 (for the US).

FF3 will probably help the Z's value be retained for a few more years till the next FF4 movie kicks out.

Uh, was that lil' bow-wow or whatever his name is that I saw there? Yikes.

They shouldn't have replaced the main protagonist, he was decent. The first two movies were at least watchable, this one looks god-awful though, but maybe it'll surprise me.

Although they SHOULD have titled it "The Fast and the Furious: Redneck in Tokyo".

As for how it affects the Z, I think people are worrying a bit too much. As others have said, it's really only affected out of production cars, and really the sequel which wasn't as popular didn't do much.

The Evo and a riced out Spyder were the main protagonist cars in the 2nd movie and they got a LOT of screen time and we didn't really see it affect either of them much.

after this movie you will see a ton of accidents because kids will try drifting no matter what kind of car they drive. It's definatley going to be a different style of movie than the previous ones, i'm not saying its going to be good by any means. lets just hope that they rice out the Z so much that most people won't know what it is and won't confuse it with our Z's

OOOoooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Noooooooooooooooooo !!!!!! are you serious, this can't be real, This movie looks soooooo gay OMG! First off what's the story line in this one? what are they stealing sushi trucks now! And why in every F&F do they always use a rapper to star in it ? Why? I dont understand? Well there it goes now drifting is going to be gay because everyone will try it and think they know everything about it because they saw this terrible movie. Just soo disapointed

ok, time to get flamed. gotta admit, i'm gonna go see it.

wow. i suppose that's what being a punk rocker and admitting that you want to go to a celine dion concert must feel like.

ok, let me try this approach:
"Hi. my name's Chuck, and i'm a car movie addict. Days of Thunder. Gone in 60 seconds. both F&F's. Dukes of Hazzard. It's a disease. I need help."

I dont think Z owners really have to worry about the movie.

Remember 2fast2furious with the pink god ugly s2000? ... people are still buying S2000 left and right, in fact my roommate recently sold his RX-8 for a 05 Honda S2000.

its just a movie.. nothing to get all twisted up about.

even though most if not all people here bash the movie, I think most if not all people here are going to watch it.
