How funny is this?

From todays paper:

84 RX7 custom motor, wheels, suspension, new tires, CD, amplifier and Woofer, same motor as Fast & Furious, quick & reliable, $4400, 745-9957


What the HELL is this dude talking about? As far as I know, there was only ONE rotary in the whole movie!!

The main character Vin Diesel drove a nitrous oxide assisted 3 rotor FD. His girlfriend raced a white FD with HKS written on the side, and was all rastafarianed (spelling?) up in her red nitrous car.

Remember this:"Hey baby, you should be standing on the side. I wouldn't want to get any exhaust on your pretty little face." "You want ***, hit hollywood boulevard. You want an andrenaline rush, it'll be 2 large, right here" ?

It was a 2 rotor, no? Hence the famous line "WOAH, a 2 rotor"

There were three rotors in the animation of the engine, thus it was supposed to be a 20B.

I think this is just proving the theory that this movie has a lot of loopholes in it.
