Fast Five Dodge Charger Hollywood Star Cars Museum Dodge Charger Fast Five - The Fast and the Furious film series Fast Five is the 2011 action film directed by Justin Lin. It is the fifth film in The Fast and the Furious film series and the fourth installment in terms of chronology preceding The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006). The film stars Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster and Dwayne Johnson. Fast Five follows Brian O’Conner (Walker), Dominic Toretto (Diesel) and Mia Toretto (Brewster) as they plan a heist to steal $100 million from corrupt businessman Hernan Reyes (Joaquim de Almeida) while being pursued for arrest by U.S. DSS agent Luke Hobbs (Johnson). During the development of Fast Five, an effort was made by Universal Studios to move away from the street racing theme prevalent in the previous films. In an attempt to gain a wider audience, the series changed into a heist/action series that utilized the cars instead of focusing on the street racing culture. This Fast & Furious Dodge Charger is the supercharged monster that killed Dom’s father and sealed Dom’s fate as it became the heavy-metal icon of the series. Truly, it’s the one car in the series with staying power. Despite being totaled twice, after being T-boned by a semitruck in The Fast and the Furious and barreling into an underground tunnel wall in Fast & Furious, it’s the one vehicle that keeps reappearing in the series. Dodge is unthinkable. Beyond this symbolism in the series, new life has been added to the workhorse. Some of the changes to the Charger include bigger wheels and tires, better suspension, and better steering. For Fast Five, McCarthy had five versions of the vintage Charger built and modified and the Hollywood Star Cars Museum is lucky enough to be in possession of one. This particular car is one of two used while filming the ending of Fast & Furious and the Fast Five opening sequence, as Brian and the cast free the captured Dom from a prison bus.

2005 Bentley Continental GT Driven by Tyrese in The Fate of the Furious Hollywood Star Cars Museum 2005 Bentley Continental GT Driven by Tyrese in The Fate of the Furious (2017) When the crew learn from Deckard Shaw that Dominic Toretto will be traveling to New York with Cipher, Little Nobody, on the advice of Mr. Nobody who tells them that to catch Dom, the gang needs to be “damn fast”, takes them to a warehouse on the docks that will be their new base of operations. Inside are the seized and repossessed cars taken from drug dealers on the East Coast. After Little Nobody rejects Roman’s appeal to drive a Lamborghini Murciélago, he settles on a Bentley Continental GT. He can then be seen in the background tinkering with the car to chase after Dom, including mounting a harpoon to the roof. After hearing on police scanners that an “army of cars are driving themselves”, the gang immediately recognize this as Dom and Cipher’s work, and chase after him in their cars, including Roman in his Bentley. The gang moves through Times Square before cornering Dom as he tried to escape. Roman chases after Dom, and he and Tej drive through a park, just barely avoiding citizens. The gang eventually trap Dom with harpoons, but through the nitrous oxide system Dom is able to escape and flips Roman’s Bentley. This is the Green Screen Special Effects & Interior shot Car. The Engine and Drivetrain have been removed to make the car lighter for the Green Screen as Roman is Seen flipping upside down.
2015 Subaru BRZ F8: The Fate of the Furious Hollywood Star Cars Museum 2015 Subaru BRZ F8: The Fate of the Furious On the heels of 2015’s Furious 7, one of the fastest movies to reach $1 billion worldwide in box-office history and the sixth-biggest global title of all time, comes the newest chapter in one of the most popular and enduring motion-picture series: The Fate of the Furious. Scott Eastwood appears as Eric Reisner (AKA Little Nobody) and is the right-hand and assistant of government agent Mr. Nobody (Kurt Russell) who helps Dom’s crew to find Cipher. In the New York City sequence you will see a lot of exotic vehicles featured, but the subtle player here is the Subaru BR-Z, driven by Little Nobody. The BRZ looks right at home in a Fast and Furious movie with its Rocket Bunny widebody kit and Toyo Tires. Many of the interior panels were removed to install a full roll cage, racing seats and harness. The production crew built four identical Subaru BR-Zs for the filming, of which three have miraculously survived. We are lucky enough to have one of these vehicles featured in our Gatlinburg car museum Now that Dom and Letty are on their honeymoon, Brian and Mia have retired from the game, and the rest of the crew has been exonerated, the globetrotting team has found a semblance of a normal life. But when a mysterious woman (Oscar winner Charlize Theron) seduces Dom into the world of crime he can’t escape, they will face trials that test them as never before. From the shores of Cuba and the streets of New York City to the icy plains off the arctic Barents Sea, our elite force will crisscross the globe to stop an anarchist from unleashing chaos on the world’s stage and bring home the man who made them a family. For The Fate of the Furious, Vin Diesel is joined by a returning all-star cast that includes Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Nathalie Emmanuel, Elsa Pataky and Kurt Russell. In addition to Theron, the series welcomes newcomers Scott Eastwood and Oscar winner Helen Mirren. The film is directed by F. Gary Gray (Straight Outta Compton) and produced by returning producers Neal H. Moritz, Michael Fottrell and Diesel.

1965 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray F8: The Fate of the Furious Hollywood Star Cars Museum 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray F8: The Fate of the Furious (2017) In the eighth edition to the Fast & Furious movie franchise, The Fate of the Furious, Brian Hobaugh’s incredible 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray was the inspiration for Letty’s C2 Corvette in the New York City chase scenes. The car is really a ’65, so why is it referred to as a ’66? “The side vents on the b-pillar were molded over in 1966. The original owner did that for a cleaner look and it looks like a 1966 model,” explained current owner Brian Hobaugh. “When they created copies for the movie, they refer to it as a ’66 to keep confusing people.” True to Hollywood standards, Brian’s Corvette plays the hero car. In fact, Brian’s car won the 2013OPTIMA Ultimate Street Car Invitational, presented by K&N Filters. Only seven cars in the world have ever held that title, so it’s no surprise that Hollywood came calling. Of the 27,720 1966 Corvettes made, only 3,366 were Rally Red. The 1966 Corvette came standard with Holley Carburetors and subtle differences between the ’66 and previous years were an elongated, vertical Corvette Script on the hood and a square mesh, plated cast grill. For the film, this car is equipped with a new 400 HP Chevrolet Crate Engine, upgraded brakes, suspension and other safety features.

The car was displayed at the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel who later formally presented it to the charity. Paul McCartney CTS1 Comedian and car collector Jay Leno hosted performances by Sir Paul and singer Tony Bennett, after which all three celebrities autographed the visor in order to enhance the vehicle’s sale value. The auction, which held a special “Rock Edition” event at West Palm Beach, Florida featured such legends as Alice Cooper, Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top), Michael Anthony (Van Halen), Sammy Hagar, and Bob Seger. At present, the Single Edition Cadillac CTS has a 3.6L VVT engine with five-speed auto-stick transmission, Stabilitrack, an audio system with 6 disc in-dash changer, power sunroof, extensive wood trim, premium paint, Xenon high intensity discharge automatic headlamps, universal home remote, theft alarm system, and more! Then, a number of special features comprising the new “CTS Sport” package were added by the factory: 18” polished aluminum 12 spoke wheels with P225/50R18 W- rated tires, performance-tuned suspension, unique grille combining the mesh used on the CTS-V with bars from the luxury version, redesigned rocker panels, rear spoiler, dual oversize stainless steel exhaust tips, etc. (This package was designed with all the luxury features Cadillac is famous for and is believed to be one of the very first CTS Sport models built.) As an animal rights activist, Sir Paul also directed that no animal products be used in the construction of the Single Edition Cadillac CTS, making this car truly one-of-a-kind.
