The Fast and Furious<\/em> franchise has gifted the world some stunning movie cars<\/a>, and several have rolled across the auction block. The latest to find a new owner is the 1992 Mazda RX-7 FD from 2006\u2019s Tokyo Drift<\/em><\/a>, the third installment, which just sold for a whopping \u00a3911,000 (or $1.2 million) at a Bonhams auction.<\/p>\n It\u2019s believed to be one of two surviving examples used during filming, driven by Sung Kang\u2019s character Han<\/a>. The car features a body kit from VeilSide Fortune, the Japanese aftermarket specialist, and it was primarily used for static or close-up shots. The Mazda retains signs of being a movie car, like the camera mount marks and \u201c#71 HANS\u201d labels throughout the coupe.<\/p>\n It measures more than 7.9 inches than a stock FD and only retains the car\u2019s original roof and tailgate. It wears pearlescent orange paint and 19-inch Andrew Premier Series Racing Evolution 5 wheels with Pirelli P Zero Nero tires, which measure 12.0 inches wide at the rear.<\/p>\n The car underwent a comprehensive overhaul before being sold, with RE-Amemiya rebuilding the RX-7\u2019s twin-rotor turbocharged engine. The car has 66,785 miles in total, but has only traveled 5,000 since the maintenance work. However, it has been sitting.<\/p>\n The Mazda\u2019s $1.2 million price tag outshines the 1994 Toyota Supra driven by Paul Walker, which sold for $550,000<\/a> in 2021. However, Walker\u2019s 2000 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R by Kaizo Industries<\/a> sold for $1.35 million in 2023.<\/p>\n The Fast and The Furious Cars Were Actually Pretty Slow<\/a> Source: Bonhams<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Fast and Furious franchise has gifted the world some stunning movie cars, and several have rolled across ...<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2798,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2796","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-event-coverage"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2796","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2796"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2796\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2802,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2796\/revisions\/2802"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2798"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2796"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2796"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bruntonwolf.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2796"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
