At the Bayside Expo center in Boston.

Good time! Lots of cars. Most of the cars were vintage American muscle cars, like Barracudas, Mustangs, Camaros, Monte Carlos, Chargers...but the import scene definately left a mark too.

There was the "Fast and the Furious" Mitsubishi Eclipse GS-T there (I'm on the left, my younger brother is on the right), a couple of nice RX-7s, a few Integras, a really nice Civic Si, no Celicas though! Although Toyota was represented by a flashy Supra that was quoted to pull high 10s!!!

The German import scene was hot too, with a ton of Mercedes-Benzes, a CLK430 with a Brabus kit on it, a brand new M3 with some nasty Breyton rims, a stock Lamborgini Countach, a Ferrari F355 Spider, and a Ferrari Testarossa.

Really awesome stuff. If anybody had a chance to go down there, it was really worth it. I'm out!

Mike

PS: I'll be posting some pictures real soon!

if you watch the F&F with the directors commentary on he says that they actually did blow up that eclipse. so the one in that pic would have to be a remade one probably for publicity purposes if it was made by the movie company. or it could have been made by some guy who wanted the same car. never know.

They made several Eclipses for that movie. This was one of the models that was in the movie. They had a different set or rims on it, and I guess it picked up a couple of more sponsers too. Looked good.
