Lesson #1 You don't steal a rare car and then drive it around not expecting people to notice!

Although it made me miss my skyline!!

I know this isn't relevant to the thread, but that dude has a GINORMOUS head!!! The tag on that hat in that last pic shows size 7 5/8...the picture right above it shows same hat barely perched on that melon.
He must have a huge pillow!

Its a rare car? What is it,all I see is some ricer with a smoke grinder on it. Kinda looks like an old POS 240SX. I'm sure its all rare and priceless but so are Studebakers

It's a rare car in the states. You can only special order them from Nissan. They are everywhere in Japan. The only option for the Skyline in the states is an GTR. This is Nissan's answer for a fast race.

I had a Dark Grey '95 Skyline GTS. Still is one of my favorite cars.

They are rare in Canada because they were never released here and have to be imported from Japan and must be at least 15 years old.

I like your Neon better

That pic of the blue whatever it is looks like some sedan with a bunch of JCWhitney aftermarket cheap plastic shit bolted on. Sorry I'm not trying to be a dick but I am old and grew up when pushrod V-8 s ruled

Agreed with you there.

Most of the Japanese imported cars are essentially dragged out of the junkyard, shipped over here in a container and sold for $10,000+

But as long as they are 15+ years old they don't have to comply to current Canadian safety regulations.

Yep - couldn't agree more with you Kev!!!

But that was then (the stolen car) and this is now (the new car photo posted)! The old one was something of an oddity and an OK car, but the new one... Well... The NEW little bugger is a monster with a twin-turbo V-6 and high-tech all wheel drive. ( 0-60 in 3.3 seconds!!!) It also has a pretty hefty pricetag at ~$75K!!! Very little out there that compares. The old vs. new is like comparing Neon models to the Viper - not even in the same league!!!
