1936 Alfa Romeo 12C

In the past decade, Alfa Romeo is one of the greatest racing team ever existed. Right before Ferrari was founded, Enzo Ferrari started his racing career back there. Anyway no time for history lesson but moving on to the legendary racecar that scored eight different wins during its tenure. Designed by Vittorio Jano before he left the company because of its flaws, the 12C or Tipo C is a Grand Prix car that uses either a Roots supercharged 4.1L V12 on the 12C-36 or a Roots supercharged 4.5L V12 engine in the updated 12C-37. The 12C-36 version racked eight victories from the 1936 Penya Rhin Grand Prix up to the 1937 Genova Grand Prix.

2013 Navistar Hobbs' MXT

Federal agent Luke Hobbs is always preferring to some tough and rugged offroaders. In Fast Five, he drove a Gurkha while on the pursuit against Brian and Dom in Brazil. Now, in Fast and Furious 6, this agile, rugged, and tough military vehicle based on the MXT truck was Hobb's choice while assisting Brian, Dom, and the crew in pursuing against Shaw. Navistar Defense's MXT was made with a rugged, light frame rail system for off-road capability on rough terrain and its 4WD performance and MRAP-like protection from explosions really give Hobbs a very tough offroader that suits him very well.
