Everyone with taste knows that 2 Fast 2 Furious is a great movie. Amongst the silly plot surrounding Paul Walker’s Brian going undercover to bust a drug lord, 2F2F has the introduction of Ludacris and Tyrese Gibson’s fan-favorite characters, iconic cars like Brian’s silver R34 GT-R, the flashy landscape and fashions of Miami, a lot of ridiculous automotive CGI, and the best character that the F&F franchise has ever seen: Devon Aoki as the pink S2000-owning Suki.

One of the best car scenes in the movie involves Brian and other drivers auditioning for the drug lord by racing across the city. The heroes drive a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 7 and an Eclipse Spyder, while the villains are in a stock C5 Chevy Corvette, a Yenko Camaro, a 1970 Dodge Challenger and a Saleen-modified Mustang. At one point the Mustang gets crushed between two semi trucks, and now that very ‘Stang is being auctioned by Mecum in Kissimmiee, Florida in January.

Mecum’s estimate for the Mustang is $60,000 to $90,000, quite a bit more than these typically go for. I’ve never been a fan of the New Edge Mustang, but I will admit they look pretty rad when done up in Saleen gear — that interior is just a nightmare, though. The Kissimmee auction will run from January 2 to the 14th.
