Question of the Week

Question of the Week: which movie car do you dream of owning the most?

A Fast and Furious legend came and went for sale all too quickly last week, and that got us thinking…

Published: 16 Jun 2025

Lead movie cars are cool when they’re done right, and Han’s Veilside ‘Fortune’ Mazda RX-7 from Tokyo Drift is one of the finest examples of this. 

That it hogged most of the attention in a movie packed with characterful metal - from Sean’s RB26-swapped '67 Stang to Takashi’s menacing 350Z - is telling of just how right its builders got it.

So you can imagine our frustration that one of the three original cars used in filming appeared for sale last week… before the listing ended on a whim. Chances are, someone saw the £345k price as a worthwhile investment.

Shame, that. We were just about to hit 'post' on a bound-to-be-successful crowdfunding pitch... sniff.

Just look at it. That body kit completely transforms the RX-7’s looks with new light signatures and a spate of bumper attachments. Chromed and dished five-spoke alloys sit at each corner, and the gorgeous silhouette is finished up in a ‘House of Kolor Orange’ and black livery.

It was left completely stock, too, so the sequential twin-turbo, twin-rotor ‘13B’ engine still put out 276bhp, got to 62mph in 5.3s and topped out at 155mph. No devilishly over-complicated internals here; just brutal Nineties simplicity that probably could be driven with a pair of Uwabakis on.

Sure, the bucket seats are slightly worn, but you will find an aftermarket sound system, a DVD screen on the passenger’s side, and lots of carbon fibre along the dashboard and centre console. That R34-humbling NOS bottle is still perched between the seats, albeit probably empty after all these years. Still, very desirable.

Anyway, that got us thinking: if you could pick one, and only one, which movie car do you dream of owning more than any other? Any movie, any era. Let us know below, and we’ll round up our favourite answers at the end of the week. Go.
