The best car Nissan has made has legendary performance way ahead of its time, competitors 21 years later still cant compete. So good on the racetrack it was banned in most events. Has dominated all kinds of motorsports, it is the legendary Nissan Skyline.Sep 11, 2010

I can't explain how much I wan this car. Everything about it is absolutely perfect. This is the type of car that fulfills dreams and hopes of a better life. It's a 10/10, 5 stars, or whatever your highest rating is.Nov 19, 2009

With an Rb20det the Skyline offers brisk acceleration and an acceptable top speed along with decent gas millage when driven "nicely" . However, with its rear wheel drive capabilities threw corners the Skylines ability to come alive in your hands really sets it apart from anything else! It is an exceptionally fun and exciting car to drive, and does not fail as a heart starter. Headed for its 21st birthday and being winter driven for 3 years (by the previous owner) the Skyline shows minimum rust and a clean underside but these factors truly rely on how you maintain it! These cars can be as good as you want them to be as long as your ready to put the time and effort into them.Sep 21, 2009

For it's age it does really well and a lot of people agree. It's not turbo but the small mods give it a fair bit extra. It has a droney exhaust but hasn't needed major work. The gauges are dodgy and i've got no odometer and the interior is a bit blah. handles well and looks good lowered.Aug 19, 2009

The Skyline Silhouette GTS 2 - is a fantastic car to own and drive.
Australian Build one of 200 made.
The RB30E in the GTS 2 is a great with the added CAM to give the motor a nice lump on idle.

performance-theres a bit of lag until full boost,apart from that it goes well,brakes really good,handles pretty good around corners but not as good as a silvia.
build quality-factory,it is nice,mine squeaks tho because of the mod's & pulling it apart how many times haha.
cost of ownership-the engine starts every time,have never had any issues.only gets about 350kms on a tank of gas,less if you feel like boosting heaps.
fun factor-love it,goes well for a daily driver now,& the power is there if i need it haha.Sep 15, 2008

personally dont have this care but i wish i did because I Love the skyline because it's a car that halls ass, built strong, looks absolutely gorgeous. The best yet weirdest thing about the car is driving on the passenger side. The car is costly around 15 000 used and 30000- 40000 brandnew. Its will always be my most favourite care ever!
Love itSep 11, 2008

Best car ever. If you are looking for a sports car that is't very expensive this is the car that you have to own. The only problem with having a import car is that there are not a lot of stores that have what you need so it is hard to repair it.Aug 16, 2008
