    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but If your expecting to see maverick action in the movie you'll be sadly disappointed....


    There is a total of 00:05 maverick in the whole movie.

    3 seconds of the primered one and 2 of the light blue one.

    Half the movie seemed like one big Dodge Charger commercial, Mopar guys will be happy :rolleyes:

    There was also a huge lack of imports, which the franchise was started on.

    If you like action movies, you'll probably like it. But I don't think it can be called an actual car movie.

    damn:( although the charger is my favourite car sharing the top spot with our mavericks and comets.

    haha yeah I noticed the taillights!

    The only car I really liked was the GTR...... I need me one of those (y)

    Also I thought Han had died in Tokyo Drift, but here he was Driving the Maverick...
    But at the end of the movie it gets explained.

    Aw dang! I just got back from seeing the movie but I didn't stay past the credits. Maybe next time. Definitely not enough car action in this one IMO but, a good saturday night movie nonetheless. As for the maverick, I agree they should have had more of it.

    I'm not gonna lie I was pumped to see Han driving a maverick. I only know a few people that actually know what a maverick is just because I had one.

    I looked like a moron cause I was so excited.

    I figured someone had to see it. And post on here about it.
