Vin Diesel Busts Up a S2000 on Fast and the Furious 4
The Fast and the Furious 4 (2009) Movie — By Nix on April 3, 2008
Either Vin Diesel is a very aggressive driver, or he’s a very bad one. Either way, if you were one of those guys with a cool car who submitted your ride to the “Fast and Furious 4″ production in hopes it’ll be featured in the flick, you may end up getting more than you bargained for. Case in point: Ben from Bespoke Ventures lent his S2000 to the production, and got it back — barely. According to Ben, during one of the film’s scenes, Vin Diesel (who was driving) managed to damage the fender, hood, bumper, and headlight of the S2000.
You can watch how my car got damaged but you’ll need to wait until 2009 when The Fast and the Furious 4 comes out to see it. It was a cool scene in the film, but I guess Vin got a little more into character than we all expected. A damaged fender, hood, bumper and headlight wasn’t supposed to be part of the deal! Oh well, at least 10 million or so people will enjoy watching the craziness that ensued to create this mini-tragedy for my car. Now I need to have Mana-P re-do the graphics for the front half of the car as I replace all of the parts and repaint. This is going to be expensive…
No word whether Universal is going to pay for the damages. You’d think they would have to, right? Then again, I hope Ben didn’t sign the wrong papers before handing over the car keys…
Here’s how the car looked before it got Diesel-ed:

good spy footage
Pic of the wrecked car. http://www.tritin-multimedia.com/tritin-films-archive/ff4.jpg
If you watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaPOH3iuDA4, at about 50 seconds in there is a picture of what looks to be the charger that got smashed at the end of FF1, how are they going to manage that if he’s been hiding out in mexico ?? would be good if they went down the route of a rebuild scene similar to the supra tho, And whats happening with Letty ?? surely we should have seen her by now ? i hope she’s not dead and the funeral or graveyard scene was for Jesse because i think the whole ‘working for a drug dealer’ thing has been done, hope its good, realy lookin forward to it now after seeing the spy footage.
sorry, should have been :

Brian Tyler: The Fast and the Furious 4
According to the Gorfaine-Schwartz Agency’s latest roster update, Brian Tyler will follow up his intense score for The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift with new music for the fourth film in the series, which is also directed by Justin Lin. The film is yet untitled but is scheduled to hit the silver screen on June 5 next year, with Vin Diesel returning as the main star, accompanied by Paul Walker and Michelle Rodriguez. Brian Tyler is also attached to The Killing Room, a thriller about four people who take part in a psychological research study which turns out to be a terrifying classified experiment. Peter Stormare, Chloë Sevigny and Timothy Hutton star in the film which is directed by Jonathan Liebesman, for whom Tyler previously worked on Darkness Falls. As previously reported and confirmed by 20th Century Fox, Brian Tyler is also going to score big budget action spectacle Dragonball.
If universal doesn’t pay up one would hope that Vin would man up and pay for the damages himself.
This is going to be atleast 2hrs long movie. They still in LA. Im ready to see Dominican Republic. Its kind of like miami, but with a more exotic feel and the GIRLZ! OMG! I want to some latino in tight latex pants, mini skirts, nothing like tokyo girls. Latinos are known for their curves.
