Vin Diesel Smashes S2000 on the Set of The Fast and The Furious 4

By Jen Dunnaway

Editor

[Check out all of our Fast and Furious coverage here, including breaking stories and rare spy videos!—Ed.]

The first casualty of The Fast and the Furious 4 turned out to be this sick Honda S2000, which somehow managed to get on the bad side of the character once famously accused of having "a gas tank for a brain." The car’s owner, Ben over at Bespoke Ventures, probably under a gag order from Universal, doesn’t explain the circumstances under which "Vin got a little more into character than we all expected," but the vehicle’s hood, fender, and headlight clearly bore the brunt of it. Those custom graphics are going to be tough to match, but Ben’s being a good sport about the whole thing: he’s already selling a "Vin Diesel Broke My Car" T-shirt on cafepress. Careful, Ben: I don’t know if you wanna taunt the dude who once beat a guy half to death with a 3/4" torque wrench.

Want to know how Vin smashed the car? Check out Ben’s 8/28 update!

Dom didnt have that car at the end of the fast and furious. That was a 69 charger. The car u see him race at the end of tokyo drift is a 70 roadrunner.

I’d rather have Vin wreck my Corvette than the illegal with no drivers license or insurance that took the front of my car last weekend.

oh and jas, one other thing, you say im wanting attention because of the nuts i have on my truck, look at you, you have a benz with rims, thats jsut craving attention a hell of alot worse than me, and plus im just tryin to be funny, i have a sense of humor like that

SouthernGuy8503
Apr 7, 2008 at 7:57 pm

jas, for one im not 40, im 22, and 2nd trust me im not hating your ride, well in a way i am cause i do hate it but im not hating on it, if your smart enough to understand that so i don’t give a shit for it, and 2 its not $400, and i have the nuts on there cause ya its just being funny, and another thing, learn how to spell pathetic you dumbass, and the onyl reason i commented on it is because you commented on other ppls shit but you can’t take it that someone wants to talk about your benz, your just another short dick preppy bitch or a punk ass wigger trying to impress ppl, your the one thats pathetic, and oh ya, im sure you need to pull your pants up cause i bet you let them sag, so thats just an invite to guys to put somethin up your ass, and again, trust me son im not hatin on your benz, ya i do hate it but im not hatin on it, i don’t need a car like that to get attention especially since your dumbass benz draws more attention to the cops than my truck does, and in order for me to be hatin on somethin means i want your car and im mad that i can’t get it so i talk shit about it, well news flash buddy i don’t want it and i never will so im not hatin on it, you understand now since i’ve had to explain it 10 times, get over yourself lol have a nice day dumbass

I thought more people would throw in one-line zingers from the movies. Though I noticed no one’s repeating lines from FF2 or FF3. Just goes to show that FF1 was much more memorable.

Apr 7, 2008 at 7:24 am

Jas,

Putting letters together, that makes words.
Putting words (and punctuation) together makes sentences.
Then when you group of sentences together, then you get paragraphs.

It dosen’t matter what you drive, you’re still retarded.

Apr 7, 2008 at 2:45 am

LOL first off your truck has nothing with my Benz so stop comparing it,yeah I understand my rims are worth more that your truck but thats really no reason for u to hate. As for small thing, i dont need to put fake nuts on my car. Yeah i guess it sucks for you not having any.the fact that you put em on means simply one thing, your 40 yr old redneck ass is beggeing for attention. I didnt say anything about your $400 truck so why are u saying shit about my ride? you rather ride that that instead of a car you actually won’t get laughed? I think your preety phatetic, so the next time you decide to hate pls back it up.

Jas, first off who cares if you have a benz if thats even yours, honestly i could care less about havin luxery cares rather i had the money or not, and jsut so you don’t think im jealous, trust me son im not, i’d take my truck over your benz anyday, and 2nd if it really is your benz im pretty sure the reason you have a benz is to offset the shortage you have in a certain area to make up for it so girls will even look at you, have a nice day :)

It Ain’t All That Bad, Just Has A Few Light Scratches And A Missing Bumper. If The Guy Paid For All That Extra Stuff That’s On There, Then That Should Be An Easy Fix For Him. It’s A Beautiful Car Though…

i already left one comment but i just realized, how do we know this was even from the fast and furious 4, its just a pic of the banged up car and a pic of vin on the homepage, we don’t know for sure if its from the movie make, only way i’ll believe this is if it was a pic of the car and vin in the same pic and vin holdin a sign sayin “i fucked up” or somethin like that, or jsut vin and the car in the same pic, but im startin to think it wasn’t even him that did it

Things happen when you loan your car out as a movie car. Its another poser JDM. If you die hard driver or racer your shit gets a little rash like this should mean go into a piss n cry fest. OH NO I GOTTA get my Graphics redone, ohhhh cry what a poser.

KP MiIller
Apr 6, 2008 at 6:28 pm

You guys do realise that this car has beaten cars like the ACURA NSX at the Nurburging Test Track right?

Hence why it is used sooo much at Solo II Track Events. It has ALWAYS been a threat at the track (even if not modified).

if i were him i’d crash it to, why would he go and get a car that johnny trann had in the last movie maybe not the same year ok. thats so not his character, there should be another muscles car and another foreign car i agree but not a s2000, it looks cool let me say that but that was not an RX7 sorry or a skyliner.and i feel bad for the owner of the s2000 i wouldnt be pleased either. i felt the technology of the movie and the vehicles progressing with each movie so great work.last but not least i cant wait to see the movie and thanks to all the director’s and cast members for making this kind of movie.

It’s just a honda. I do feel sorry for the custom paint though.

Apr 6, 2008 at 3:22 pm

Hey there guys and easy little kids, it doesn’t matter how much your car costs, hell it usually doesn’t even matter where it was made, its how awesome you can make it with what you have. So if you want to say you’ve paid $100 000 for a car you can’t drive for one reason or another then I will stick to my $2000 project cars.

Jas
Apr 6, 2008 at 7:09 am

Just a honda??lol,its funny how my 15 yr accord looks nicer than ure stock eclipse,never mind my benz on 20’s. The paint job on the s2k probably cost more that you’ll make in your lifetime so if i were you i keep my mouth shut stupid junkie.

first off, im not a fan of imports, especially ricers, i still do love the fast and furious movies though, but if you have a custom paint job no matter what it is, you run the risk of having to redo it if you get ina wreck or even a small fender bender, or as little as getting a bad scratch, no matter who’s driving it, plus accidents happen to everyone so why highlight somethin a star does, and 2nd of all, Luis Felipe, i don’t know why your talking shit about that S200 when your ugly eclipse is completely stock

Hard luck Ben, that was a gorgeous S2000 (Love the BMW z4M style hardtop) I know exactly how you feel but at least you’ll be looked after by his insurance company! My car was totaled last week by an uninsured driver and the car is beyond repair. I know mine is nothing when compared to yours but everybody has to start somewhere…

Luis Felipe is right! Well partially. I would say, “Who cares??? It’s an IMPORT.” Go buy a Solstice or a Sky. If you’re going to buy a honda, get an accord… great gas mileage.

Expensive, undoubtedly and I feel for the owner. But on the other hand, I think the car’s a little overdone on graphics. Call me old skool, but I prefer the KISS method of customizing the appearance.
