Was browsing the Cars at Carlisle website trying to find the Fuel Injected 1958 Bonneville Convertible I saw when I was down there, and this caught my eye.
It’s a 1999 Skyline Sedan with an RB26DET motor in it. Very well done. Not feeling the wheels, but the rest of the car looks good. Appraised at $284k, but not sure what it sold for.

But seriously: Appraised at $284k? Dear god. I would rather buy the lambo that was posted on here.
who would spend $300k on a skyline? Please get me the name of the appraiser… If i could get him at my work i would sell a shit load of cars!
yeah no shit. Besides the performance packages, don’t these pretty much equate to a Taurus over there?
Ford GT all the way
the reason it appraised so high is because there are a fixed number of these that are street legal in the states.
Motorex was importing them for a few years before the US gov caught on that they had only crash tested R33 GTS-ts. And now the only R34s legal in the US are the few that motorex had already imported.
Also, the skyline isn’t like a taurus… more like a mustang…
The GTR is like the cobra…
Same reason a hemi-cuda from way back is worth 11ty billion dollars. Yeah, you could build something comparable for less, but it’s RARE.
I am really interested to see what it actually sold for. I can see someone paying 80-90k becuase its a rare car but holy shit. 300k is nuts.
Sick glo-shift gauges in a 284k car…
mmmm god damn the r34 is sooo sooo hot.
i hump my half cut errry day
that is a pretty impressive build though… it’s got some serious mods you normally wouldnt see on that kind of car here… also, the exterior is left pretty clean which is also quite rare.
i can see it going for $50k+ and i can also see some fan-boy with a rich daddy take this for closer to the $100k mark
yeah what the fuck?
nice,rare…overpriced
That looks nice, but why on earth would you drive around with those booklets under your hood? I mean wouldn’t the glove box or back seat be a better place for them?
Four miles to the gallon all the way!
wow, minus the shit glo-shift garbage, those are some impressive mods on that car…obv would never pay THAT much, but nice car nonetheless
not to mention the sedans didnt come with a rb26dett, they came with the rb25det neo.
so that adds to the cost a bit, but it is still a lil pricey
awesome, a fake track car with shaved door handles and a roll cage…
“that’s not even a number.”
“…yet.”
That R34 is super clean, engine bay and up. I still like the 2 door R34’s looks much better.
You guys need to pay the F#ck attention. That’s how much the national debt will be after Obama Taxes and spends us back to prosperity.
i seen it in person, its pretty sick, id tap it
Fixed for proper use of the word “seen”, seriously using “seen” incorrectly makes you sound dumber than someone that uses “y’all”.
