This legendary sports car was created by the renowned Japanese tuning brand Veilside Co. Ltd., commissioned by Universal Pictures, and is one of only two actual vehicles left from the film. The specific chassis was primarily used for close-up shots and static scenes, playing a crucial role in showcasing Han's mysterious persona on screen, while no drifting actions were actually performed.
Veilside's signature Fortune wide-body kit has completely transformed this RX-7's appearance, increasing its width by over 200mm while retaining the original roof and tailgate. The body is painted in a pearlescent orange, complemented by sleek black detailing, and sits on 19-inch Andrew Racing wheels. Under the hood, the legendary tuning house RE-Amemiya has reworked the twin-rotor engine, delivering an impressive 280 horsepower.
When it comes to the interior, this RX-7 is equipped with Veilside's bucket race seats, carbon fiber trim, and a complete Alpine sound system, along with a decorative NOS nitrous bottle. The cabin still features original production markings from Universal Pictures, including the label #71 HANS, showcasing its cinematic lineage. Since being acquired by a British collector in 2008, this vehicle has remained in pristine condition, rarely driven in the rain, and comes with a 24/7 weatherproof tracking system.
Currently, this vehicle fully complies with road regulations, making it one of the most recognizable and well-preserved cars in contemporary cinema. This auction also demonstrates the astonishing value and influence that the Fast and Furious series of movie cars holds in the collectibles market.
