Hakosukas were the first Skyline's to carry the GTR badge, and are highly collectable, similar to the Toyota 2000GT.
Apparently £50k is cheap.
£50k is cheap, the engine alone is worth that. The KPGC110, the second gen GTR is rarer still and about £150/200kApparently £50k is cheap.
Beautiful things the early Skylines.

Yes these cars have a strong following in drift culture (I presume) hence big value:
cult car, I like them
Is it actually that much? A mint Mk1 Escort will set you back at least that, and the Datsun has a stunning sounding IL6 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMhvNORw9SUcult car, I like them

Oooh yes, one of my favourite cars to take out for a blat. Mine is silver and looks standard from the outside but underneath sports a heavily modified engine, chassis, brake system and tyres.
I also like my e39 M5, it's been nicely tweaked for a bit of drifty 'ring action when I decide the Ferrari 599 GTO is just a bit too intense.
This reminds me, I'll have to find my Forza disc. It leads as Fifa 2013 at the moment which means the kids have been playing the xbox 360...

smh.out with you.
When I got to the bit where the bus is flipped over the Mustang I called him to rant about physics, and he said "that's not even the bad bit, call me after the final car chase". I was too angry to talk about it.
However, if you ignore physics, and don't worry about pennyless fugitives driving around in £50k classics, and don't spend even a second trying to work out if any of the characters have consistent motivation from scene to scene, and ignore all the bits of the story that are based on the lead characters needing money when they can legitimately own 911 GT3s at will just by winning a race, then it's a good film.
And by "good" I mean profitable, and by "film" I mean eye rape.
The Skyline was lovely though.

I'm not just being a snob refusing to watch them then.
Speaking of Mustangs doing odd things, wasn't there one with five reverse gears in Drive?
