Notice the absence of wheel hop in the small burnout that was done? Spiffy...

There's a few guys on another forum hounding and bashing the people interested in the S550 saying they better be prepared to invest a ton of money fixing the wheelhop problems. A real shame they are.:tsk:

Indeed...I look forward to hearing more about the durability testing for drag starts on the 2015. I think it is safe to say the engineers have probably spun a few tires during the development :)

There are always a few drag guys out there that don't like boost or nitrous. They seem to want to do things the very hardest way. NA rev it to the moon clutch drops. Then to fix traction issues just means throw some slicks on it. When the stock parts start to break best way to fix them is complain on the internet.

If the film has a happy ending, perhaps they'll drive off into the sunset in the S550. Whatever they do, I hope they don't trash it. Or even get it dirty :paddle:
My guess is they trash the silver NFS car we keep seeing and this rolls up as his new hero ride.

My only thing is I wish they showed a different color for the first film it's going to be in. Not a fan of how it looks in red altho I understand it's more of a movie car color and they can't exactly go with TY after Bumblebee.

I doubt the car will have a big role in the movie, maybe just a short cameo type thing. They probably had to hide the crap out of it and only took it out for a few days of shooting.

Indeed it does seem that she drives the S550 up (I assume after the hero car is wrecked) and then they "drive off into the sunset". I would assume we'll hear some want-to-be-iconic lines voiced over while that happens.

From the video::

That's the NFS car but why put it in this video about the 2015 being in the movie? I hope to show that HUD is going to be an option, if not this year then very soon.

Those look like mirrors on the side of the HUD. I would have to guess post-production CGI in that video. Looks neat though!
