"Look, it's a bird, it's a plane, no... those were flying cars!"
You can say a lot of things about the film's story plot or dialogue lines, but one thing you can't take away from "Furious 7" is its flair for breath-taking stuntworks and electrifying action sequences that are sure to keep you at the edge of your seat. It definitely lives up to the billing of a high-octane and action-packed film.
Amid all the muscle-filled and testosterone-induced scenes, the movie had no misgiving in showing its soft spot. It may not sit well with some misanthropic critics, but James Wan and the entire crew did not let it pass without paying homage to the late Paul Walker, the man who is one-half the face of this franchise.
The worldwide box office success of the "Fast and Furious" series is a celebration of fast cars, and the automobile industry is riding high on it. But the real estate industry also has something to say with these awesome car garages.
The True Car Collector's Garage
The Realtor.com came up with their list of Bad-Ass Garages in Honor of "Furious 7".
First on the line is an awesome garage of a seven-bed, nine full-bath mansion in Newport Coast, California. Take a tour of the inside of this 10,600 square foot residence and see it for yourself.
The 6,000 square foot garage can accommodate more than 20 cars. It is equipped with a temperature control system, a lounge area, and 1,500-plus wine cellar. It looks really charming with its cobblestone design from the ceilings, down to the flooring.
The Big Dog Garage
When we talk about celebs who are into collecting cars, the name of Jay Leno pops out of the conversation. It's no secret that "The Tonight Show" host emeritus and comedian fancies cars. And he houses his "over 100 cars, all valued at approximately $50 million" as per The Richest, within his Burbank, California property.

The 25-Car Garage
This exquisite Draper estate in Utah also stands out with its impressive 25-port car vault. This "car collector's dream home" was built in 2010 and is now listed at $5.9 million as per the Luxuryrealestate.com.
The detached garage is equipped with its own car elevator. The mansion also features an indoor basketball court, tennis court, swimming pool and spa, and a state-of-the-art theater.
John Travolta's Garage-slash-Hangar
We just have to include Mr. Travolta's garage in his Florida mansion, where he lives together with his wife Kelly Preston. It's not just because of its impressive feat of housing 16 cars but the fact that it doubles as a hangar for his two private jets, as told by Yahoo.
Unbeknownst to many, the "Grease" and "Face Off" Hollywood actor is also a licensed pilot. In 2001, he navigated a Qantas 707 in a flight to Sydney, Australia to promote his film titled "Swordfish", Yahoo notes.
