It’s not often that we com across a really special car which grabs our attention. However, this 1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 is just one of those cars. It is virtually brand-new as it has only covered 85 km (53 miles) - it is perfect in every single way. Or is it?
Well, not really, as the Pleasanton, California dealership that sells it, Specialtysales, clearly states that the car is for off-road use only. They have specified this because this is a JDM car, with right hand drive, which has an overseas VIN number, and thus, it cannot be registered in most US states.
This is a pity, because the car has around 450 hp, with standard-fit factory upgrades such as Apexi exhaust and downpipes, HKS fuel pressure regulator and improved Nismo suspension. The power is transmitted to the road via a six-speed manual gearbox and a very clever all-wheel drive system - must be a real hoot to chuck around...
So, even if you had $49,990 (€39,900) to spend, you’d still only get to look at it and rev it in your garage, and that’s about it.
