• Screen-used in the opening highway chase sequence of Fast & Furious 4 (2009).
• Built by Dennis McCarthy / Vehicle Effects, Universal's official vehicle builder for the franchise.
• Ingeniously configured to drive in reverse, engine mounted in the trunk, steering and pedals relocated to the rear.
• Equipped with a functional drivetrain and stunt modifications for precision control.
• Acquired by Movie Cars Central from a private collector in Europe.
Built by Dennis McCarthy and his Vehicle Effects team for Fast & Furious 4 (2009), this Buick GNX is one of the most complex stunt vehicles ever engineered for the series. Used extensively in the film's opening highway heist scene, where Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) chases and drives in reverse toward a moving tanker truck, the car was purpose-built for that sequence. The vehicle's configuration is completely inverted: the engine is mounted in the trunk, while steering, pedals, and driver controls are concealed in the rear seat area, allowing the stunt driver to perform high-speed reverse manoeuvres safely and convincingly. Retaining its production modifications and original construction details, after being part of the Volo Auto Museum, the GNX was later acquired from a private collector in Europe and remains a remarkable piece of Fast & Furious stunt engineering.
Sold on a bill of sale and accompanied by a certificate from the Volo Auto Museum, this car is a genuine prop item and is not intended for road use.
