1991 Nissan Skyline GT-R review from North America
"I use two words and only two words to describe this car: F#%@ YEAH!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Blew the engine at 180K.
General comments?
Unreasonable bargain! Though the mechanical failures were a tremendous setback, it is pure delight to serve mouth-breathers in new muscle, or stuff-shirts in overpriced European sports cars, at damn near anything.
And to think I only paid $CAN 13k for this car!
Sure the interior and exterior are sad and the sound system sucks, but who needs any of that nonsense? Especially when you have the sexy, sultry sounds of the mighty furious RB26DETT, roaring with every rev and gluing you to your seat at open throttle. Or perhaps the uncanny grip of ATTESA, keeping you on the road no matter how fast you drive or the current weather conditions.
