The Evolution of the Nissan Skyline

Nissan Skyline C10 Sedan 1500 Deluxe

It’s all been kicking off over at influx, our online car magazine, where a post on the Nissan Skyline’s evolution over the last 52 years.

After someone posted that, in his opinion, the Skyline’s raison d’etre was to:

“flatter the below the belt aspirations of all those who might be challenged in that region”

the car’s fans have been out in force defending the honour of the car which probably comes closer than any other to being the people’s supercar. You can join the debate here, so whether you think the Skyline is the pinnacle of automotive excellence, or agree with Paris, let us know. You can also let us know which generation is your favourite.

Buying a Skyline? Best check with the wife first…

Nissan Skyline GTRThe R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R is an awesome car. And if you’ve maxed it out with a ton of performance modifications, taking it up to 420bhp in the process, it can probably knock spots off of most supercars you could mention on any track.

Sadly, though for one Jap Import fan, the joys of owning this fearsome beast of a car have come to a premature and unhappy end.

As the clearly disgruntled seller discovered, if you’re in a relationship, your dreams may be cruelly dashed:

Reason for Selling: Purchased without proper consent from the wife. Apparently “do whatever the F**K you want” does not mean what I thought.

So there you are. If you want to purchase the car and give it a good home you can get the full specs and buy it here. Just make sure you check with the missus first.

Although as the owner points out insurance for a Nissan Skyline can be a tad expensive and, if you’re young, difficult to even find. Fortunately, Adrian Flux can fix you up with some modified Nissan Skyline insurance, or indeed insurance for any japanese import.
