***, used by Dom in a chase. The one from Tokyo Drift appears in the background in another scene (the race in the garage is not shown, however).

I am crying about the physics they used in this movie :cry:
Heavy front crash.....and no injuries and broken glass all around because of the shock wave.

Actually it is said, that the Maserati has reinforced chassis. But extremely ridiculous nonenthless.

Neither of the pillars are damaged. It'll cost a fucking lot, but it's probably repairable...

I heard they used a real Plymouth. Moviemakers these days... they have no hearts *starts crying* But hey, at least they made up for it by destroying that ugly offroad charger. Wait, they used a real Charger for that scene?!?! *cries even more*

Saw this car and the Barracuda at Universal Studios Florida when it came out. After watching the movie, I was depressed to see it get destroyed. :cry:

I just found the picture car is currently for sale through Gateway Classic cars in Detroit. A picture of the data plate is included, so I decoded it:

V21: Performance Hood Treatment

----------------------------------------

So the main car is an actual Road Runner, albeit an originally low-optioned 383/automatic car, and surprisingly it's even in its factory Burnt Orange color. The original factory graphics (black V21 hood stripe, white V8W tail stripe, and yellow V6Y "Coyote duster" side stripes) seem like a strange combination, though.

Quote 1970 Plymouth Road Runner
Chassis no. RM23NOE115345
• built by Dennis McCarthy / Vehicle Effects, Universal Pictures' official builder for the Fast & Furious franchise.
• Retains factory Chrysler V8 engine and drivetrain
• Used on-screen as Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel)'s "hero" Roadrunner
• Finished in production-applied orange paint with black interior and trim
• Previously registered in the US to Universal City Studios LLC
• Acquired by Movie Cars Central from a private collector

Originally produced as a 383-powered 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner in the Los Angeles factory, this car was subsequently acquired by Dennis McCarthy's Vehicle Effects team and modified for the filming of Fast & Furious 7 (2015). Serving as one of Vin Diesel's principal hero cars, it was driven by Dominic Toretto and appears in key sequences such as a car chase against Jason Statham's character (Deckard Shaw).
Unlike most stunt units, this example retains its original Chrysler V8 engine and drivetrain, making it a rare hero vehicle. Finished in its distinctive orange paint with black interior and trim, the car remains in its authentic screen-used configuration.
Following production, it entered private ownership before being acquired by Movie Cars Central, where it has been preserved as a significant cinematic artefact.
Offered with its US title, 846A custom import document, and supporting documentation on vehicles used in the film, this Roadrunner represents a compelling project requiring mechanical recommissioning.
