It definitely influenced more customization and newer things to be invented as well as more people now know about cars, such as myself. I was almost 16 when 2 Fast 2 Furious came out and it definitely boosted my interest in cars a whole lot. I honestly don't think I would be here where I am without those movies, as flashy and unrealistic and neon as they are. I also believe it caused car manufacturers to come out with sports cars and/or bring back discontinued models, listed below:

RX-8, Skyline (Nissan GTR), 350Z, Dodge SRT4, Chevy Cobalt SS, Ford Focus SVT, Honda Civic was redone, Scion was born.
If I left out any, please correct me, also if you feel I'm wrong, let me know.

It also indirectly influenced American companies to make more stylish modern looking cars because the japanese manufacturers had the best styling in the 90's and early 2000's for sure. Started with Ford, then Dodge/Chrysler, and then GM.
