Exclamation My Rx8 Will Be In The Fast And The Furious!!!!

HAHA you guys arent going to believe this. and its shocking to me as well. i just got a call from a guy i know very well whos in the industry, who asked me specifically to be in the fast and furious and if i wanted to be in it cause they needed RX8's. i was like "HECK YEA!" so he said alright done. we'll go in wednesday for the paper work and the shoot will be on thursday and friday. plus i will be getting paid for the time i will be being there. from what i heard its $250.00 per day so for two days i will be getting paid. i don't know anything about where my car will be placed or which scene or anything like that. but when i do i will be getting back and updating you guys on it! ahhah so make sure to look for my car! hahahaha. RX8's represent!

-Sam

That's awesome!!! But does that mean they're going to put stickers all over your car and put a giant wing on the back?

That's cool.

Not to rain on your parade, but it seems a very late in production to be doing this. The trailers are already out; the movie is set for this summer. Seems like it's a very very last minute rush edit to get certain cars in the movie. Maybe Mazda paid some advertising money and demanded that the 8 be featured more. There's already a crazy looking yellow metallic RX-7 with a black roof that seems to have some key race scenes.

Are they having you drive it, or a stunt driver that can make it drift and balance it on one wheel while living a quarter mile at a time?
