Check Out the Prices of 11 Favorite Fast and Furious Cars

6. 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona

To the F&F connoisseurs, it’s no secret that Dom Toretto had muscle car blood running in his family. And if his 1970 Charger R/T wasn’t extreme enough, perhaps you should go for a 1969 Dodge Daytona. The original Dodge Daytona was a NASCAR homologation special based on a Dodge Charger 500, but with a wild body kit. That wedge-shaped nose and huge rear wing were to reduce drag and improve downforce, thus enabling higher speeds on the superspeedways.

As a car specifically for stock car racing, the Daytona had huge success on the racetrack. In fact, it changed NASCAR forever in that short period of so-called Aero Racers. Today, the original Dodge Charger Daytona costs well into six figures, with the most expensive one fetching close to a million. In all honesty, that price is fair, since they are prized collector cars Dodge produced in limited numbers. They’re incredibly attractive, as well.

They offered the Fast & Furious movie Charger Daytona for sale for $125,000, yet it wasn’t an original Daytona, but a car they modified for the movie. Visually speaking, it had a shorter and lighter nose and a considerably lower rear wing. But, the main difference came from under the hood, because the movie car had a 430 HP, LS-3 V8 engine from GM. Some car enthusiasts might say that’s a sacrilege, but it was all in the name of movie magic.

7. 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback

The third F&F movie, Tokyo Drift, featured yet another muscle car legend, a dark green 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback. It had two white stripes gracing its body and four seven-spoke JDM Volk GT-7 rims with Toyo Proxes T1R tires. They built six of those cars just for filming purposes, all using 1968 bodies. They swapped some with a 2.6 L RB26DETT twin-turbo I6 from the Skyline GT-R. The production team spent around two months on these modifications alone.

Two of those Mustangs featured a 430-cubic inch Windsor V8 engine, bringing the horsepower up to around 500 HP. Some other mods for these cars included improved brakes, rear roll cages and racing seats. The crew removed the extra headlights to provide the intercooler with enough fresh air.

When you see one of the sexiest cars ever created in Detroit with an impressive list of mods, you might picture an astronomic price. However, they offered five of the six Mustangs for sale in Southern California with prices ranging from $14,000 to $22,000. This is far less than the cost of any classic fastback Mustang, especially in drivable condition. It is quite possible these hot movie Mustangs were the biggest F&F bargain of them all.

8. Mitsubishi Lancer EVO VII

One of the most prominent cars from 2 Fast 2 Furious was Brian O’Conner’s Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII. It had a paint scheme like the Eclipse from the first movie, except with a different hue of lime green. In real life, these cars proved themselves virtually everywhere, from rally tracks around the globe to actual illegal races. As such, it just had to be featured in the Fast and Furious franchise. For filming purposes, the production crew built several cars from regular Lancers to look like the EVO VII, while they imported just one actual EVO VII from Europe.

They modified the cars with DAMD body kits, ARC rear wings, Motegi Racing FF5 rims and Toyo tires. The engine of the EVO was a 2L DOHC 16V 4G63 inline-four with added nitrous. While the stock EVO VII had 280 HP to power it, this car probably had more, although there is no clear information regarding that. In 2013 the actual movie car emerged for sale for the “buy it now” price of $39,995. Truth be told, that’s a reasonable price for a car that’s both a movie star from the early F&F era and a high-performance machine in its own right.

9. 1969 Yenko Camaro SYC

One of the cleanest cars from the early F&F days was the LeMans Blue 1969 Yenko Camaro featured in the 2 Fast 2 Furious. Don Yenko was a famous Chevrolet tuner. His Yenko Camaros are among the most coveted American tuner classics on the market next to Shelby’s creations. The cars in the movie were 1969 Yenko Camaro recreations and detailed replicas of Yenko’s pricey works.

Originally, they offered Don Yenko’s cars as a part of the Yenko Performance Package. The basis was a 425-HP, 427 L-72V8, Z/28 suspension and additional gauges, as well as some other mods to make Chevy’s pony car go even faster.

The movie recreations had Cragar S/S rims, and they most probably used a similar 427 L-72 V8 with 425 horsepower. They destroyed the movie car during the final chase in 2 Fast 2 Furious. However, some stunt cars survived. They donated one of them to the Paul Walker Charity ROWW as a tribute to the late actor.

Today, 1969 Yenko Camaros easily go for six figures, yet detailed replicas and recreations of this cool 60’s tuner muscle car go for around $50,000. The original movie car is out of reach, but given the circumstances, that’s for the greater good.

10. Honda Civic EJ1

The three black Honda Civic EJ1s that Dom and his crew drove for a heist at the beginning of the first F&F movie are probably the most underrated cars in the entire franchise. They are a classic black color with a relatively discreet body kit. After all, who would want to go on a heist in a car with a screaming paint job, tons of speakers and neon lights blazing brightly?

Although they are just Civics, it is easy to understand how these cars became cool street machines. They sported green neon underglow lights and Vader-Style body kits, as well as ViS Racing Bomber GT body kits. They were all finished in black. Under their hoods was a B-series 1.8 VTEC engine with a T66 Turbo and a NOS kit.

So far, no one knows if any of these movie cars ever went up for sale. But, since the mods on them are not elaborate or costly, anyone can replicate this sleek look easily and affordably, too.

All you need to do is to find a good project car. They usually don’t cost more than a couple of thousand dollars. From there, you basically need a somewhat discreet body kit. To save money, you can skip the neon lights, and enjoy this car without the green underglow. In fact, they are illegal in some states for street use.

11. Hector`s Honda Accord Wagon

The most popular Fast and Furious cars already featured on this list have probably been snapped up by serious car collectors. But, if you want an inexpensive piece of the F&F legend, you could buy Hector’s Accord Wagon.

This is not one of the more famous or iconic Fast and Furious rides but at $2,999, it is the most affordable real F&F car you can find. However, there was a catch. Hector’s Accord Wagon was slammed by a heavily-tuned orange station wagon in the first Fast and Furious movie back in 2000. Hector made comeback in the seventh installation of the series, but with a different car. They showed the Honda Wagon briefly, but the character was memorable.

After the movie, the long-roof Honda went through a transformation and became a green convertible. Someone listed the car on Craigslist in Southern California in the summer of 2017. They sold it for a rather low price of $2,999.

The cars on this list are special, so they are only for the most serious Fast and Furious franchise fans. Some are affordable, while others are easy to replicate. So, if you want to drive a movie history icon, be sure to buckle up and follow the rules of the road.
