In the past 20 or so years there have been some incredible car and driving movies as film companies recognize the profit potentials. Some of these films have sprung off entire franchises but all of them have greatly contributed to creating more gearheads amongst us. The Fast and The Furious (2001) The movie that unleased…
The Nissan Skyline GTR is what legends are made out of, especially the R34 V-spec II.
