Smile Movie Star!

I was doing some work on lot today that specializes in overall nice cars whether they be restored classics(like a black 69 Roadrunner 440 6Pack)or some the more modern vehicles(notably a black 09 ZR1 Vette or the some of the of the other fast cars i wish i could afford! :-)).Anyways,every once in a while they get something that is really unique or special.I'm not a huge fan of tuners but today I got to see what I was told was one of the cars used in the movie 2 Fast 2 Furious.The Pink S2000 driven by the character Suki.I know it's not a huge deal but it's not everday you get to see a movie star!!

Cool!

I know the movie company usually has more than one of each car, but to have one of the real deals is kinda nice.

Is the one you saw all show and no go, or does it have the performance mods on it too?

i wish i could find the 55 chevy from 2 lane blacktop / american grafiti. my dad has an article that was published after grafiti, the '55 was sold by the producers, & the owner who had the car was getting ready to sell it.

even more i wish i could find the 57 chevy used in TALES FROM THE CRIPT: KING OF THE ROAD. that one seems to have fallen off the face of the earth.

a clip with the car:

Volo Auto Museum has a lot of hollywood cars and most of them are George Barris creations. I live about 10 minutes from Volo and my fiance and I have a membership.
