So since moving, the wife and I had to get our CCW's out here and had to take an 8 hour class at a firearms school to get it which we did last week. So anyways, we come outside for lunch (beautiful 75* sunny day- gotta love winter ) - and this thing is parked right outside the front door. It's an R34 Skyline GT-R V spec II (not sure on the year). Snapped some crappy cell phone pics, but these are all I got.

Didn't find the owner before I had to go back after lunch- but after posting it on the local forums out here- I guess the guy owns two- this one is supposedly set up for autoX and runs high 12's at the strip. I guess he has another one built for drag racing that does high 9's, and he has a 240 with an R33 front clip on it built for drifting.

I just couldn't believe I saw one in person- back in IN, there was a guy with a beat up R32, but this thing is in a totally different ballpark. Its actually only the 2nd R34 I've ever seen- the other one being at HIN in Chicago, and I couldn't get within 10 feet of the thing because of all the people.

Anyways, the pics:

 

sweet

 

Congrats, I have yet to see a skyline, but if I saw that in person, Id need a towel lol.

 

Nice looking car, the end of it looks like a cobalt.

 

thats crazy man! i was just looking at one for sale i think in either cali or florida on crazedlist.org dude wanted 80 grand though

 

You've gotta understand how expensively impossible it is to get one of those things over here.

 

Sweet. I never saw an older one in person before, but last summer at a couple of car shows I've seen the newest model that came out. Sweet car.

 

IDK... I know they are fast and all, but that car doesn't do it for me.

Especially that color...

 

thats sweet, very rare to see them around, ive had the privlage of driving on a few years ago, i wish i could own one lol

 

Sick.
