  (#17) 2006 Astin Martin

  While it’s generally true that any Aston Martin of recent years is worth mentioning, that's especially the case with the DB9 from Fast & Furious. In suede black, with gloss black trim and wheels, this DB9 looks like the car James Bond would drive if he suddenly decided to switch sides and join Dr. No. An almost identical Aston Martin became Jason Statham’s villain car in Furious 7.

  (#14) 1973 Chevrolet Camaro

  The 1969 Yenko Camara from 2 Fast 2 Furious is known as the Camaro of Camaros. The Yenko never played, especially while using Chevrolet’s secret COPO program to sneak L-72 427 equipped out the back door and into his dealership. At 5.4 seconds to 60 mph and 13.5 in the quarter, the Yenko really earned the “supercar” moniker Don Yenko gave it (the first recorded use of the term, incidentally). 

  In the real world, this “supercar” probably would have had its lunch eaten in a drag race with O’Connor’s nitrous EVO VII. Even a bone stock EVO VII runs mid 13s. A straight race with a 427 Yenko would have been an easy walk. But who cares, really? This Yenko still looks infinitely cooler in the rear-view mirror than any EVO’s taillights ever will.

  (#24) 2014 Eagle Speedster/Jaguar E-Type

  Its appearance was brief, but still counts. For those who haven’t heard, the Speedster comes from British manufacturer Eagle, but it started out as a legitimate Series 1 Jaguar E-Type in Fast & Furious 6. But don’t take the Speedster as some kind of hot rod hackery.

  Eagle meticulously goes through the entire car, updating or replacing every piece of it, modernizing the mechanics and making a few subtle aesthetic improvements. This somehow pulls off the neat trick of making the car seem even more pure than it originally was. It’s a love letter to a car, and worth every bit of its six-figure price tag.

  (#12) 2000 Nissan Silvia S15

  The Nissan Silvia was known as the “Mustang of Japan” and its most notable appearance was as “Mona Lisa,” Han’s magnum opus and the second car Lucas Black destroys in the first half hour of The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. However, the Silvia has appeared throughout the franchise.

  In the very first movie, Michelle Rodriguez’s Letty made her first appearance pulling into Toretto’s Market and stepping out of a red S14 Silvia. Okay, technically, it was a crappy American-spec 1997 240SX made up to look like a Silvia, but we can suspend disbelief on this one. It’s an SR20 away from being legit. A few 240SX’s disguised as Silvias showed up throughout Fast & Furious and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.

  (#13) 2003 Mitsubishi "Drift" EVO

  Generally, I’m doing my best to avoid repeating models on this list, but the red EVO Lucas Black “drove” in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift has to be mentioned. It was a purpose-built, rear-drive drift machine, and its few scenes contained some of the best un-cut and un-CGI-enhanced drifting of the entire movie.

  Also, the EVO was helmed by Japan’s real-life drift king, Keiichi Tsuchiya. You can’t see him in the car, but you can see him as the fisherman in the blue jacket who smirks as Lucas Black’s character spins out attempting to drift the EVO. That footage, by the way, was originally an outtake of Keiichi himself in one of his rare drift fails.

  (#2) 1970 Dodge Charger

  It might not be the fastest car in the series, but is there a more iconic car than Vin Diesel’s original Dodge Charger from the first Fast and the Furious movie? The “star car” used for close-ups had a functionally blown Hemi while the other three that were wrecked for stunts used 440 big blocks.

  Part of what made Dom’s black Charger special is that it stood out amid a sea of brightly colored buzz-boxes. Without a doubt, it's one of the most iconic cars in the history of the franchise and one of the most beloved cars in the history of film.
