I have dodge this topic long enough and I feel it is important to the gear head community. The passing of Paul Walker has been not only a sadness to his family and friends, but a crushing blow to the tuners as well, for the pass 10 years we have all looked forward to The Fast and Furious movies since its 2001 debut. A fast pace action film combined with good actors, girls and DUH,.. CARS!! It was not only Vin diesels' portrayal of a conflicted bad ass with morals, but the cool witty and sometimes clueless character played by Paul himself. The actor brought A fierce acting characteristic to the screen that came alive every time he got behind the wheel and drove for his life. This will be missed and people are now wondering will the franchise ever be the same after so many sequels followed the success of the first movie, its just something we will have to wait and see. Of course we can not dwell on his acting prowess alone, because at the end of the day, aside from him being a son, brother, father and friend to many..... he was a car guy.
This was a guy who in an interview said and i quote " i traded in my Porsche boxster for a Nissan Skyline. Now we personally don't care what model it was, the fact that after driving the car in 2 fast 2 furious , he stuck with the car throughout the series and as a personal vehicle in his garage. I can only imagine how many he might have owned but we may never know. He has been noticed as a generous individual, you cannot not like him. I have never met him personally but I'm sure he was a down to earth kind of guy you would want the have a beer with. To make a long story short, He will be missed and we he has left an impact in the car world on the silver screen.
RIP PAUL, and THANK YOU!
