If they indeed switched to a Chevelle at the last minute it was probably due to not being able to find enough Charger cars & parts on short notice. 



Check out the ballast mounted off the back end of the Chevelle in the vid clip.  Even though the car had big enough back tires & motor to pull the wheels on a good day.  Hollywood really just wants repeatability in stunt car shots as much as anything else.

The weights will probably be digitally erased in the final cut.

they have used multiple muscle cars in the past, challenger and camaro, monte carlo and mustang and GTX... and they already said vins car was "suppose" to be a gnx, so maybe the gnx is replaced with the chevelle and the charger is in a different scene.

I don't see any Chargers in these pictures.

Call me an idiot but I can't wait to see it!  I love those movies.

I am just waiting for them to try to use a Cuda convertible in a F&F movie, just like the producers of Phantasm II tried to do to replicate the first one.  Since the prices are down on the e-bodies, it might then bring them back up a bit....

Isn't that an oxymoron?

I had a suspision that was going to be the outcome.  They try to con you into going there with the premise that the car might get used for a few shots, but instead it becomes a buying show for them.  It would save the producers time that way, as they would not have to advertise about buying Chargers, as the Chargers would come to them instead.  They will probably be out to car shows to do the same thing......
