I have to admit that I watched that movie in the theatre. My buddy and I took his '67 malibu just to have a good laugh. If you sit and watch the movie there is a lightning as the parts truck. Also, there are subtle points of homage to real horsepower, but you got to look close. The main character is almost always wearing a Duke VonDutch shirt, and he is SCARED to drive the blown Charger in the garage, which runs 9's. Other than that, and as a way to see everything thats wrong with the "import scene" it is a waste of film.
