I'm 99.999999% sure it isnt really him, but on the off chance it is.....Your a ****ing douche

"Underground car scene"? Give me a break - growth in any industry involves breaking out of a certain mold. Those who trully love cars stay and the posers eventually go away.

As far as the movies go, the director/producer are the ones who are ultimately responsible for the the movies - good or bad.

Yes and no. Lieberman was the one who picked and built the cars for the F&F's, not the producers. Also, the cars they featured were largely dependent on manufacturer sponsorships (the reason why mitsubishi cars had such a large role in the 2nd and 3rd movies). It's definitely just a business, and props for Craig for making the contacts and profiting from the scene (even though many, including myself, would have preferred our scene left out of the corporate america spotlight).

Good luck Craig (if this is really you)

they need to let the F&F's die. The third one almost made up for the horrible second one, but still, let it go. They all are humorous more than anything else to the car people.

lol I can admit it. It's not like I am going to go put underglows on my Z. But when that movie came out I was still in highschool. We all know we never watched those movies for the acting. We watched it for the cars. And yea this scene brought a lot of idiots that do stupid **** like street racing, and decals. But it also fueled the aftermarket parts we have now for our cars. Plus I want that skyline in 2F2F.
