That's it, I am buying a lottery ticket today. If I win, I promise you this will be my first purchase.

Let me start out by saying the original movie was honestly one of my favorite movies at the time it came out. At the time I did not have a driver's license (because I wasn't 16 yet) and I wanted to drive really fast. Then this cool movie comes out about underground street racing.

Then the sequels started coming. '2 Fast 2 Furious' did not just have an awful title. It was an awful movie as well. I jumped back on board with 'Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift' because the movie went back to focusing on the street racing aspect. Which honestly is all I care about in a movie about cars.

Here is where I gave up on the franchise, 'Fast and Furious', the fourth movie in the franchise. God it's going to be difficult talking about these movies in the future. Yeah the first movie is called 'The Fast and the Furious', while the fourth one is called 'Fast and Furious'. Yeah, that's not confusing as hell for everyone. Here is why I hated this movie and SPOILER ALERT. The main selling point for this movie was the original cast was coming back. Hell yeah, I am going to see this, sign me up. Yeah the original cast for the first fifteen minutes of the movie. Michelle Rodriguez dies right at the beginning. After that, I have not seen any of the new movies.

Even after that, still a fan of the original. In fact I loved this movie so much I did whatever I could to find one of the cars from the movie. In high school I actually drove a Toyota Supra. I actually went back on MySpace for you guys to find this picture. Yeah remember MySpace? Holy crap mine still is up. Sorry for how small it is, it was taken on a crappy camera back in the day. That is my 1990 Toyota Supra, which was the model before the one they used in the movie. I didn't care I loved that car.

Well anyone of us could now own the car from the original movie. The beautiful 1993 orange Toyota Supra. May 12th this car is going to go to auction at Mecum Auctions in Indianapolis. Better have some deep pockets, many are estimating the car to go for around $200,000. As most car movies go several different cars were used in the making of the movie. This was the one used in the iconic final scene where Paul Walker and Vin Diesel street race to the train tracks.

Don't expect this Supra to be a ten second car. Under the hood lies a naturally aspirated, 220-hp 2JZ-GE 3-liter inline 6 engine meshed to a 5-speed manual transmission. The car does feature a pair of Holley Performance nitrous-oxide bottles, though, but they aren’t connected. By the way I was serious about that stuff at the top, if I win the lottery between now and May 12th this car will be mine.
