Born in 2001, the "Fast and Furious" series has now been produced to the 9th in a row, although the story is old-fashioned, but the ghostly plot, imagination, and thrilling flying car stunts can always bring unexpected surprises, so in the past 20 years, the "Fast and Furious" series has accumulated countless fans around the world.

As the 20th anniversary masterpiece of the "Fast and Furious" series, "Fast and Furious 9" not only brings a variety of fancy drifts and showy drifts, but also has a big scene such as a brain-opening flying car over the cliff and a flying car going up the sky.
It is reported that in order to make this film, the crew scrapped more than 200 cars. In the more than two-hour film, for more than half of the time, the protagonists are either in drag racing, or on the road of drag racing, and there are many luxury cars and modified cars in the film, and there are even some classic models that have once been popular but have now faded from the public's vision. As a "professional" car fan friend, you know several models that appear in the film.
In the Fast & Furious series, Dominic Treto (Donald Boss), played by Van Diesel, is proficient in racing, car repair and various crimes, but he is also a thief and has won the respect of black and white. As a team leader, the image of Donald's tough guy is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and in the film, the car he chooses is also the Dodge Rogue 500, which is also known as the "tough guy".
Born in 1966, the DodgeCharger (War Horse), built with a medium-size b platform, flat body, the bulging muscle line on the bonnet, full of power; and the semi-loaded chassis + leaf spring rear axle, it is really shaky to open, but this does not affect people's pursuit of it, the powerful hemi engine, excellent acceleration results are recognized as the "godfather" of the muscle car.
Donald's Dodge Charger 500, the second generation of the Charger, was born in 1968 and symbolizes the most glorious era of the car series. The front face of the car is designed with hidden headlights, and there is almost no curve in the appearance.
The Dodge Charger 500 is powered by a 7.0l (426) hemi engine, which is a racing engine that has only produced 11,000 units, with a maximum power of 431 hp and a peak torque of 664 Nm. The film's ginger 500 is modified with an oversized supercharger, which can explode a staggering 900 horsepower wheel data.
The super power, coupled with the "dangling" body, and the fact that the models of that era did not have a configuration like the body stabilization system made it difficult for ordinary people to drive the car. In the play, Donald also mainly uses it to run a 1/4 mile acceleration race.
In addition to the super-flammable drag racing scene, the mysterious resurrection of "Han" can also be regarded as a major attraction of "Fast and Furious 9". Han's superb drifting skills are memorable, but in the third "Tokyo Drift", "Han" unfortunately died in a car accident in a competition, and after the lack of Han's drift show, it was quite regrettable to fans.
However, in the 9th part, Han was mysteriously resurrected by the screenwriter, as for how to live, it does not matter, for the general audience, the wonderful is finished. This time, the car chosen by Han return is no longer the undead bird Mazda RX-7 equipped with a rotor engine, but the Toyota Supra that was recently listed in China.
Born in 1979, Toyota Supra has a well-known name "Bull Devil King". In the 1990s, the fourth-generation Supra, equipped with a 2JZ-gte engine, was known as one of Japan's four kings of sports cars, along with the Nissan GT-R, Honda NSX and Mazda RX-7.
The Supra currently on sale is a fifth-generation model that uses the same CLAR platform as the BMW Z4, and is equipped with the same BMW B58 engine and ZF 8at transmission as the Z4, and even the interior is the same. This generation of Toyota supra may be a bit disappointing, but it is gratifying that after 17 years of suspension, it has at least been resurrected, just like "Han" is resurrected in a new film, and its appearance is a big surprise.
Roman Pierce, played by Teres Gibson, although he also has the muscles of Van Diesel, in the play, he does not show himself as a tough guy, but as a strong backing for the team, and contracts most of the laughs in the play.
In the play, it is impressive that Roman Pierce drives a jeep gladiator gladiator rampage through the broken bridge, and although the plot has some "dog blood", it looks really shocking, and at the moment when it is about to fall off the cliff, it makes people sweat.
The jeep gladiator is still relatively unfamiliar to many Chinese, this is a pickup truck model based on the Wrangler, equipped with a 3.6l v6 engine, the maximum power is 285 horsepower, and the peak torque is 353 Nm.
The jeep gladiator is 5537/1875/1905mm in length, width and height, and the size is slightly smaller than the Ford Raptor, but its tough appearance, strong off-road performance and good load carrying capacity still attract many North American buyers.
Jacob Treto, played by American professional wrestler John Senna, is portrayed as a tough guy in the play, like Van Diesel, and plays the role of Van Diesel's "brother", but as a villain.
The rebellion of the younger brother who knows his brother well, which is unmatched by all the villains in the previous series, in the face of an unprecedented crisis, how will Donald Boss, who has always valued family affection, respond, which is also the biggest suspense of this film.
Speaking of cars, as the villain, Jacob Treto, whose car is a Ford mustang (Mustang), of course, this is not an ordinary mustang, but a mustang with a "snake logo", which is the mustang shelby gt350 that even supercar does not dare to mess with.
The Mustang Shelby GT350 is powered by a 5.2L V8 naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 536 horsepower, which is one of Ford's strongest naturally aspirated engines ever built, matching a 6MT transmission and accelerating from 100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds.
The death of Paul Walker is regrettable, and Brian, who played him in the play, has gradually withdrawn from people's vision, but in "Fast and Furious 9", Brian's wife Mia has returned, which has also aroused the memories of many fans.
In the play, Mia's car is Chevrolet nova ss, I believe that for most Chinese people, Chevrolet nova and nova ss are a relatively unfamiliar name.
The Chevrolet nova "Nova" was born in 1962, and at first it was just a regular sedan and station wagon.
By 1966-1967, the boxy, powerful nova ss were born. It is a two-door version of the muscle car, powered by a 5.3l v8 engine, available in both high and low power versions, with a maximum power of 350 hp and 275 hp respectively.
The nova ss in the film should be a product of 68-72 years old, and it is also the most classic version of nova. Its capable design, slip-back styling, is known as the timeless American muscle car classic.
In addition, on the nova ss of this period, the designer used some very creative designs, such as the tachometer placed on the front bonnet, although the practicality is not large, but it looks very windy.
As the twentieth anniversary masterpiece of the "Fast and Furious" series, I believe that many friends have been looking forward to "Fast and Furious 9" for a long time like Buy and Buy Jun. But if you just shout "wow" silly to all kinds of cool big scenes when watching the movie, it may be rolled by the audience next to you, so before watching the movie, you may wish to do your homework to understand the cars in the play, when they appear on camera, you can familiarly call out their names, which may cast the envious eyes of the girls next to them.
