^^ That is true. The stunt cars all had SBF V8's. Two I6 cars were built and the stunt one couldn't do the scenes.

My favorites were the Mr Potato Head Bridgestone one and the CAsh 4 Gold one with Mc Hammer and Ed McMahon.

I wonder if the car in the movie is swapped, or it's just not accurate. Which I can't believe would happen in an F&F movie!
They found the engine for the mustang from tokyo drift and stuck it in
That's true, they probably overnighted those parts from Japan.
IIRC the 'stang in FFTD had a ford V8 droped back into it for the action sceens because the Nissan(?) I6 didn't have enough power. That was an entertaining tid bit from a copy of Car Craft
The funny part that they left out was that the one with the Nissan motor ran the fastest quarter mile.
But the Ford powered ones had the torque necessary to toss that thing around.

< $2000 commercial contest, what a concept!

The Godaddy ads didn't need to be continued on the website, but they (accuratly) predicted we would go there to see them for the same reason they made them. Because as men, we are stupid. I did think the 3 stooges ending of the shower one was pretty funny.
I did notice how muscular her arms were, but to be honest, I thought it did a lot for her. I am not a fan of twigs. You do have to cut her some slack considering she deals with 3+ Gs in the corner when she's at the office.
