argh i feel like i'm calling people out here... but i'm not sure if these are paul walker's cars either... maybe some of them? really not sure. i know paul has(had?) an r34 gtr but i'm sure it's the same one that is in this video smoking tire did at AE performance's storage facility:

As a VW/Porsche enthusiast this got me thinking about his roles and remembered he drove a Porsche 356 in Takers. He died in a Porsche CGT.

James Dean once owned a 356 but traded it for the 550 spyder he crashed and died in.

Not suggesting a connection, just sharing a bit of coincidental tidbits on a sad day.

Some updated news in regards to his death and the future of FnF 7. The good news is it's not scrapped but understandably delayed. They also need to rewrite a lot of the story as Walker was scheduled to appear in Atlanta to film key scenes next week.

Everyone involved in production obviously do not have the heart to return to work. Who can blame them. I think they need to take a respectable hiatus, mourn the loss and honor his memory in the next installment.

They all need time to heal. It's an obvious huge deal. The family of both the passenger and driver... I know exactly how they feel and I hope they have the support needed to overcome this.

FnF 8 and 9 may not come to pass which will be most unfortunate but understandable.

Tyrese visited the crash site.. the man looked absolutely distraught...

It's just littering my newsfeed today. I pulled out my FnF collection. I will be doing a marathon... my heart is still broken over the news. I hope their families find peace in all of this.

this is awful, but what can you do? having to decide how to write someone out before the wreck has even had a chance to cool down. this also happened (under different circumstances) with heath ledger, in which he was involved in a movie that was not completed before his untimely death and they had to make big changes.

i have to wonder how will they explain his absence... maybe jason statham's character got brian after he killed han?

I have no idea if this photo is a real quote, but if it is, people can take a bit of comfort in it. Sometimes its better to just believe it is right?

As well as Vasek Polak, Bobby Phills, Ryan Dunn, etc. Maybe it's Germany's new way of attempting world domination?

they were really good friends both on and off set. those two were trouble for everyone in the last movie (there are some youtube videos floating around of their shennigans while not filming).

tyrese posted this on his facebook page... last text message with paul:

Pretty shitty day yesterday, it seems like a lot of us on RS had a piece of them ripped out when we heard the news. I'll keep it short, so RIP Mr. Walker, you're going to be missed by all the FF fans and car enthusiasts. It's so weird cause I've never really been moved by celebrity deaths, etc. but it feels like I lost someone in my family. Probably because our passion for cars, etc connected us like the rest of the rs community.We can all pay our respects by praying for his family, as well as Roger's. I found this pic on AE's FB page of Paul getting into the CGT. I hope they finish the rest of the FF series like they intended to honour PW. That's what he would have wanted for sure.

Dhillon called that shit in like the first few posts... So immature. To take something that was scripted into the movie and then mock an accident that took his life when he wasn't even driving?
