Default No Audi :(

So it looks like the new fast n furious won't have any audi's the only euro car looks like is a 5 series bimmer. It's too bad cuz I'm sure the 1.8T or the new 2.0T with serious mods can take on the best of the Ricers!

I'm just fine with that. Audi doesn't belong in a movie like that. The less exposure that Audi has to the ricers, the better. We don't want them getting ideas about ricing up 1.8T's or 2.0T's!

I have to second that. Also, it was sad to see the W12 in the Transporter.


Now, Ronan. That was a good use of an S8. Too bad they crashed it.

I'm with the team. No Audi, in cheap ricer movies. I'd hate to see an Audi with a bright green paint job.

I enjoy the F&F movies, but I'm glad they don't have any Audis!

I think the ricer era is ending...not near as many on the road lately. When Fast and Furious just came out, there were a ton on the road, now i see a lot of cars with only the brackets remaining from the aluminum spoilers. LOL

As for Audi in movies, I Robot seems to have been sponsored by Audi or something, there were so many in there! Great movie so I enjoyed the Audi content

You see more and more Audis in movies. Personally, I am not a big fan of that. Audi doesn’t need the advertisement. While, most other auto makers are struggling with miserable sales figures, Audi had recorded the highest sales in March, ever.

Audis belong on the race track and in the hands of capable drivers.

I like the Audis in I Robot because it was a futuristic movie with Audi concerpt cars which gave the impression that Audi is the world auto leader of the year 2035....

Generally I don't notice too many Audis in movies overall. I just saw F&F and it didn't seem as focused on the cars as much as the last F&F movies.

I thought the Audi SuperBowl commercial was really good:
