For more than two decades now, the 'Fast and Furious' franchise has kept people hooked with its jaw-dropping stunts and unending adrenaline rush.

It might have started off with some illegal street racing and a little drifting through the busy streets of Tokyo, but over the years, this franchise has delivered nail-biting action involving everything from tanks to submarines. A huge reason for the popularity of this epic franchise is its unbelievably talented star cast.

In the first film, the fictional storyline revolves around Dominic Toretto, his sister Mia Toretto, and her lover Brian O'Connor (an undercover cop). The future movies reveal some other characters like Carter Verone, Han Lue, Sung Kang, and Johnny Tran.

Top 10 Cars In The Franchise

It is no secret that this franchise presents some gratuitous action and a lot of cars; some really awesome ones. Here is a list of the top 10 best cars that were iconic in the movies.

1963 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Grand Sport ('Fast Five' 2011)

Even though this beauty didn’t receive as much screen time as it deserved, it was part of one of the best scenes from the franchise.

1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS ('Fast & Furious' 2009)

This car is also part of one of the most iconic scenes in the franchise; Dom and Brian’s face-off race. Incredible moments call for incredible cars.

1970 Dodge Charger R/T ('The Fast and The Furious' 2001)

This magnificent beast was featured in the final chase in the first movie and is iconic.

1970 Ford Escort Mark I Mexico ('Fast & Furious 6' 2013)

The tank scene will always live in my mind rent-free, and this car just makes it better.

1994 Mazda RX-7 ('The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift' 2006)

In all fairness, almost all cars from Tokyo Drift could be added to this list. The RX-7 is a genius on its own, but when Han drifts with this thing in Tokyo Drift? Chills.

1995 Toyota Supra ('The Fast and The Furious' 2001)

This is the car to decimate all cars. Period. The style, the stealth, the charisma, the speed, this was indeed iconic.

1998 Nissan Skyline GT-T R34 ('Fast & Furious' 2009)

This was not exactly one of the best cars ever, but because it is used in the scene where Brian meets Dom is what makes it special.

1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse ('The Fast and The Furious' 2001)

This is the car that introduced us to Brian. It’s got to be in the top three.

2002 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII & 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse ('2 Fast 2 Furious' 2003)

Even though the choice of color for both of these cars was horrible, the chase scene was legendary.

2005 Volkswagen Touran ('Tokyo Drift' 2006)

Twinkie’s modifications to this car in 'Tokyo Drift' basically turned it into the Hulk-mobile!
