Fast and Furious F9 movie car for sale, but it’s no orange Supra

Imagine the call to your friends: "I just bought a movie car from The Fast and the Furious."

But it's not a black Dodge Charger, or an orange Toyota Supra. It's a BMW 5 Series sedan.

Filmed in the UK for the most recent chapter in the 'Fast' franchise – F9 – the 2010 BMW 525d was used in a police chase and is still wearing its UK-correct police livery.

The 3.0-litre six-cylinder turbo diesel sedan is equipped with a manual transmission, hydraulic handbrake, safety harness and working emergency lights.

It is currently advertised for £8,990 ($AU16,000), which is about what you would pay for a similar BMW 5 Series in Australia, albeit without the cinematic provenance.

The rest of the car appears to be standard. The seller says it has 118,000 miles (190,000km) on the odometer.

You can catch the BMW on-screen during a car chase where Vin Diesel and Dame Helen Mirren avoid the constabulary through the streets of London in a purple Noble M600. Because, of course they do.

Fun fact: the scene features a mistake where the BMW 5 Series police car suddenly becomes a smaller BMW 3 Series police car, before getting crashed.

The F9 example of the BMW 5 Series is listed by Baker Brothers motors in Surrey. If you're really keen, you could potentially import it to Australia as a race/rally vehicle (with limited registration prospects) or would have to own it in the UK for at least 12-months (while you also lived there) to ship it as a personal import.

The car is too new to meet the import regulations for "classic" cars – and because BMW Australia sold the F10 generation BMW 5 Series here, is not eligible as a low-volume import.
