Until now, I had no idea there was going to be a Need For Speed movie, but these pictures show a McLaren P1 on the set and I'm suddenly interested. And that's not the only car that catches my eye.

Normally I could care less about another cheesy car movie. The last Fast and the Furious was great, and the new one could be good, but a wannabe version based on a video game is a bit of a stretch.

These pictures, however, give me some hope. They turned up on CarScoops, having been released by the Mendocino County Film Office, where the movie is shooting.

In the above picture we see the still somewhat mythical McLaren sharing space with a Koenigsegg Agera R. Below we see a Bugatti Veyron SuperSports and a yellow GTA Spano. I didn't think that car even existed outside of auto shows.

There's also a totally awesome Mustang camera car, painted matte black to prevent any reflections screwing up the shot.

The movie is set to come out in March of 2014, and it could well be the first time the hypercar gets to be onscreen.
