Those people who say this is a bad movie, are wrong...
I have seen this film 4 times in 5 days, and I will go and see it at least another 4 times!!!
The main difference between A2Racer (alternative title for Autobahnraser) and Fast&Furious is HUMOR!!!!! Not only we get fast and beautiful cars, we get a large amount of jokes and funny situations as well!! That is what I missed from Fast&Furious...
The plot itself is quite simple, but these movies are not about the story, they are about cars. And girls, of course. And you can see a lot of beautiful girls in this movie!!!! Also the action sequences are very well done... I only felt sorry for those cars they have broken... but fortunately the Police Porsche survived!! :-)
Anyway, I think the German did a great job, and this movie will always have a place among my favorites!! :-)

I am ashamed to be German - with this movie, it's official. This wannabe-rip-off "Fast and Furious" movie about fast cars and the German high ways ("Autobahnen") is horrible, awful, disastrous, boring and ridiculous. The characters seem to come directly from TV soap operas, there is absolutely no merely intelligent dialogue and the director seems to be replaced by a computer - the scenes were cut arbitrarily, acting is miserable and the plot is foreseeable and just plain stupid. I'm sure (and sad) that this film will find its audience in Germany (like Fast and Furious found its audience in the US - but Fast and Furious nevertheless had some style): the uneducated "lads" who firmly believe that their car is the artificial extension of their dick. Horrible movie, avoid at all costs.
For all of you who gave negative remarks about this movie get a life - the intended genre of the movie is not the same as need for speed underground at all. This was a nice relaxing comedy - not supposed to be action!!! I found the quip and jokes they made perfect as a lot of the comedies these days the directors and producers always want to go over the top and the movies end up being stupid. This is definitely not one of them. I might only be a Namibian German but I am not ashamed of my heritage like one of the other people that commented. I would suggest this movie to anyone who just wants to relax a little with very little violence and just light comedy - Enjoy it for what it is!!!!
I saw this title a couple days a go on Austrian TV and I did like it a lot. As a matter of fact I gave it 10 whole points, and there is a good reason for that.
All those who say Autobahnraser is simple, dull and shallow are 100% right. It is all those things. But I don't see why wouldn't it be? It's a teen comedy with cool cars and fast idiotic driving. You really don't need things like acting, drama and a complex story in such an arrangement. It would just spoil the simple fun.
However, the main reason why I loved Autobahnraser so much is the appearance of my beloved 2002. I have one, I love it and I like seeing it in movies, especially if there's fast driving involved. That's it - 10 subjective points from me :D
Even so, with all it's shallowness, Autobahnraser has more depth than Avatar, for instance...

Having actually seen the move (unlike some)...
This is a *fun* movie. I can recommend it to everybody.
The cast is young and brilliant. The pace is high and the story is fun. With many twists this is a very nice movie.
Go see it!
