Trailers have teased Han back behind the wheels of the bright orange vehicle, reminding us of his Mazda RX-7 from “Tokyo Drift.”

The film’s production notes mention the orange and black coloring of the Toyota Supra are meant to be “an emotional throwback” to the RX-7 in which Han was “killed.”

Helen Mirren has expressed her desire to “be a mad driver” in a “Fast and Furious” movie since 2015 and director Justin Lin finally let her check this one off her bucket list.

Queenie takes Dom for a spin during a moment star Jordana Brewster described to Insider as “epic.”

“What’s awesome about Helen Mirren is she just made it seem so seamless. So that’s also one of my favorite scenes,” Brewster told Insider in April.

Sean Boswell and Twinkie are back working on a very special Pontiac Fiero.

General Motors built the mid-engine sports car for a few years in the mid ’80s. As seen above, the car curiously has some rockets strapped to it.

Dom races a Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat through the jungle of Central America.

The car is heavily teased in trailers for the film for a huge action sequence that Insider previewed in May.

It’s one of a few Chargers Dom has in “Fast 9,” including his rebuilt original 1970 Charger R/T, which sits in his garage at the film’s start.

(How does Dom continue rebuilding this car after seemingly destroying it time and time again? We don’t really try and think too hard about that.)

Dom’s younger brother Jakob Toretto takes command of a gorgeous, modified blue 2016 Ford Mustang GT350.

According to the film’s production notes, a Mustang was the only car choice director Justin Lin had in mind for Jakob. The rivalry between the Charger and Mustang is meant to mirror the fractured relationship and tension between the two brothers.

The vehicle has a supercharged V8, 640-horsepower engine.

The car seen above was shown off at an exclusive customer preview in 2017, but looks similar to the one you’ll see in “F9.” 

The coolest car in “Fast 9” has to be Dom’s custom 1968 mid-engine Dodge Charger.

We can’t say much about it yet, but you’ll see the car later in the film as it races through the streets of Edinburgh and Tbilisi.

A Universal Studios rep confirmed to Insider that over $1 million was spent to build the custom mid-engine Charger.

“Dom’s ‘F9’ Charger had to be something that was over-the-top, iconic and different from what we’ve done in the past,” vehicle supervisor Dennis McCarthy says in the film’s press notes.

“With its mega-horsepower Dodge Hellcat motor, unique Charger engine location, and combination of old and new technology, the mid-engine Charger satisfies all of these criteria. This Charger is now my all-time favorite ‘Fast & Furious’ car,” McCarthy added.
