The 10 cars behind the scene of the Fast and Furious 6 (Part-1)

Line of cars in Fast and Furious 6 is not to be missed to be listened to. They are "players" that support and plays an important role in establishing the film's plot. In the previous five films, which always presents some success with the coolest cars of all kinds of models.

On each series of the Fast and Furious movies always bring diverse standard cars and car modification from the U.S. and Japanese manufacturers. All eyes are guaranteed to make the audience satisfied.

And for the sixth series of the Fast and Furious is still keeping the tradition of presenting cool cars. Here are the 10 cars that take part in the latest sequel of Fast and Furious.


10. 2012 Dodge Charger SRT8
Dodge has long supported the Fast & Furious films by supplying vehicles, and it shipped 11 new 2012 Charger SRT8s to Dennis McCarthy's picture car department for this film. In this latest case it's the most powerful Charger of them all, the SRT8 with a 470-horsepower, 6.4-liter Hemi V8 under its hood.

The Sparco front seats aren't as accommodating as the SRT8's original thrones and there are a relatively well-hidden roll cage and four extra buttons on the steering wheel hub, but otherwise the interior of this FF6 Charger is a pure Chrysler product.

9. 2012 Lucra LC470
The 2012 Lucra LC470 is obviously a potent machine. The structure under that carbon-fiber body is a straightforward tube-frame chassis supported on aluminum suspension links swiped from under a C4 Corvette and coil-over shocks. The LC470 weighs just a touch more than 2,000 pounds and actually has a slight rearward weight balance.

The engine sits practically in the middle of the 96-inch wheelbase, well behind the front wheels. And when the 505 hp of the LS7 V8 only has a ton to shove around, the result is explosive acceleration. Lucra claims zero to 60 mph takes only 2.5 seconds, with a stupendous 9.4-second trip through the quarter-mile.

8. 2011 Dodge Challenger
It starts up like any other 2011 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392: with a noticeable popping thump as the big 6.4-liter V8 spins to life. So each Challenger was fitted with a wide-body kit from Classic Design Concepts. That includes new, wider composite plastic replacement front fenders and composite rear fender extensions.

Altogether, the extensions add a massive 6 inches of width to the Challenger and allow the fitment of tires with up to 315 millimeters of tread width. Because this wide-body thing does burnouts that produce clouds of smoke so big that they interrupt air traffic in surrounding states.

7. 2010 Nissan GT-R
One of the quickest cars on earth with a Switzer P800 turbo kit is at the heart of this fortification. That kit includes new ball-bearing turbochargers, high-pressure wastegate actuators, a revised intake, Niagra-spec fuel injectors and two massive intercoolers that could knock a steel furnace's output down to that of a kitchen match. Switzer claims its package is enough to slam output of the GT-R's VR38DETT 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6 up from 485 horsepower stock (2010 model) to a full 800 hp.

Of course there are more tweaks baked into this power plant including a Cobb Accessport AP005 flashing the ECU, HKS plumbing and a sump full of Motul 300V oil. The R's shop fabricated the exhaust system itself and built the cooling system to keep all the fluids' temperatures reasonable. Let's assume the engine is at about 850 hp and leave it at that.

6. 2010 BMW M5
That's the generation of M5 built between 2005 and 2010: the one with the high-revving, 500-horsepower, 5.0-liter V10 and ridiculously complex seven-speed automatic transmission. You know, the one that emitted a wail when it launched that sounded like an air raid siren echoing across a Bavarian beer hall. It's the baddest-ass four-door of the last decade.

And of course the BMWs portraying the M5s in Fast & Furious 6 aren't actually M5s at all. Come on, it's not like there are close-up shots of the engines or timeouts in the chase to show off the transmission. (Jump to Part-2.) *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | EDMUND.COM | KAPANLAGI.COM]
