As much as we feel the urge to poke some fun at these screaming teens, we’re not going to lie; at some point in our lives, we’ve all had enthusiastic reactions upon seeing a rare automotive icon on the road.
Okay, maybe not that extreme, but you know what we mean. That said, we should (probably) forgive them for the vertical video (too).
To these kids repeatedly screaming and yelling “It’ a f***ing Skyline!” the Nissan GT-R’s immediate predecessor, known to gearheads under the R34 codename, is THE car to own, with the fact that it was never officially offered in most markets around the world, only sky-rocketing its fame that was further bolstered by its lead roles in the Fast & Furious franchise.
The fifth and last generation of the Skyline GT-R series, before Nissan decided to bank on its popularity and create the GT-R R35 for global consumption, was produced between 1999 and 2002, with its 2.6-liter twin-turbocharged straight-six advertised as having 276hp (the mythical limit for JDM cars), but in reality, producing somewhere around 330hp in stock form, and way, way, way more when tuned.
