If there's one thing the Fast & Furious franchise is about, it's family, but the movies are also about flashy and speedy cars, many of which appear in multiple installments. Since the release of The Fast and the Furious in 2001, the franchise has followed a growing ensemble of characters, and just as every one of these players has come and gone, so have their vehicles. Few of them drive the same cars more than once, especially since a lot of Fast & Furious rides are destroyed, so it's rare for any to make multiple appearances, yet there are also occasional Easter eggs where autos from past movies reappear.
While the focus here is on specific recurring cars, there have been repeated models of vehicles as well as other modes of transport that have shown up in multiple Fast & Furious movies. The submarine from The Fate of the Furious makes a surprise appearance in the cliffhanger ending of Fast X, for instance. Any cars that only returned via flashbacks to previous movies are excluded from the list — unless these revisited moments involve new or reworked footage of the original scenes. Also, while the Fast & Furious franchise features multiple Chevrolet Caprices and Ford Crown Victorias as police and taxi vehicles, they're left off the list as well.
Dominic's 1970 Dodge Charger R/T
"Nine-hundred horses of Detroit muscle." If there's one iconic car from the Fast & Furious movies, it's Dominic Toretto's black 1970 Dodge Charger R/T, which he built with his dad as a kid. Following its introduction in The Fast and the Furious, where Dom totaled the car during a chase-turned-race with Brian, the Charger returned in Fast & Furious, Fast Five, Furious 7, F9, and Fast X. The car seemed to be destroyed multiple times, but like the franchise's main "family" characters, Dom's Charger will never die. While Dom drives a lot of cars in the Fast & Furious movies, this is the one he'll always be best known for.
Dominic's 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS
Another car introduced in the original movie, Dom's 1970 Chevelle SS made its debut during the post-credits scene at the end of The Fast and the Furious. At that time, the car was red and black, and that's how it looked in Fast & Furious when Dom drove it to Letty's funeral. Dom later painted the vehicle gray for the audition race, which it barely survived as he drove it to a win. The Chevelle was then sacrificed, however, so that Dom could escape Fenix. In The Fate of the Furious, Dom purchased a near-identical Chevelle. Then in Fast X, he was seen building the same car with his son.
Brian's 1994 Toyota Supra MK IV
One of the other notable cars in The Fast and the Furious is the 1994 Toyota Supra MK IV, which Brian got from a junkyard and brought to Dom. After it was restored, Brian drove the car during the movie's climax, ultimately racing against Dom and his 1970 Dodge Charger R/T. At the end of The Fast and the Furious, Brian gave Dom the keys to the Supra, allowing him to evade arrest and flee to Mexico. While it never reappeared in any other Fast & Furious feature, the Supra received a mention in The Turbo Charged Prelude for 2 Fast 2 Furious as having been abandoned by Dom.
Han's 2001 Nissan Silvia S15 Spec-S
Referred to as the "Mona Lisa" in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, Han's 2001 Nissan Silvia S15 Spec-S was loaned to Sean when the kid needed a car to race Takashi in. Unfortunately, the car was damaged beyond repair while Sean attempted his first drift race. Its still-destroyed status was confirmed in the director's cut of F9: The Fast Saga. During an extra scene where Letty and Mia broke into Han's old garage in Tokyo, the Silvia could be seen still wrecked.
Han's 1997 Mazda RX-7
Making its first appearance in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, Han's 1997 Mazda RX-7 technically only appeared in one part of the franchise. However, this sequence was revisited in multiple Fast & Furious movies, with the car reappearing each time. In Tokyo Drift, it was driven by Han as he attempted to evade Takashi. In that third installment, which is the sixth Fast & Furious movie chronologically, Han crashed the Maza and was presumed to be dead. At the end of Fast & Furious 6, Deckard Shaw was revealed to have crashed into Han's Mazda, and in Furious 7, the car was seen again in a flashback.
Deckard Shaw's 1992 Mercedes S-Klasse
Similar to Han's Mazda RX-7 reappearing in Fast & Furious for a retcon of the character's death from The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, the 1992 Mercedes S-Klasse that was involved in the same crash also returned. In the later appearance, Deckard Shaw was shown to exit the Mercedes, throw Dom's cross into the wreckage, and walk away as Han's car blew up.
Dominic's 1970 Plymouth Road Runner
This one was also originally Han's car. Dom told Sean that he won his 1970 Plymouth Road Runner from his friend a few years earlier. The car first appeared at the end of The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift when Dom appears for his cameo. The same scene was revisited and extended in Furious 7 as Dom talked more about Han and also drove the Road Runner while racing Sean for fun. Dom drove another 1970 Plymouth Road Runner in Furious 7 when he followed Deckard Shaw from Hans's funeral in Los Angeles, but it was a different car.
Letty's 1970 Plymouth Road Runner
Not to be confused with the 1970 Plymouth Road Runner that Dom has in Tokyo, this car was driven by Letty when she flipped over multiple times and was presumed to be killed during Fast & Furious. That supposed death scene was revisited in Fast & Furious 6, this time with Letty shown crawling out of the Road Runner before Fenix lit the car on fire.
Mia's 2003 Acura NSX
Fast & Furious ended with Dom sentenced to prison and riding in a transport bus. Mia, Brian, Leo, and Santos followed the bus with three cars, one of them being Dom's iconic 1970 Dodge Charger, driven by Brian. Another was a 2003 Acura NSX with Mia behind the wheel. The fourth Fast & Furious movie concluded with a cliffhanger as Mia and Brian swerved their cars in front of the prison transport bus. Then the next installment, Fast Five, opened with a continuation of the same scene, with Mia still driving the Acura NSX as part of the gang's plan to break Dom free.
2 Modified Dodge Charger SRT-8s
After the Fast & Furious family stole four 2011 Dodge Charger SRT-8s from the Rio police station in Fast Five, they repainted and modified two for the bank vault heist. Brian and Dom drove the two reworked Chargers as they hauled the vault through the streets of Rio. These cars, along with numerous police vehicles and Hernan Reyes's Volkswagen Touareg SUVs, were again seen in a revised version of the sequence during the opening of Fast X.
