Too valuable to just stick in the car thread. RIP Paul Walker

 

With Paul walker’s passing a year ago, almost to the day, A car driven by the late, great legend himself (RIP brother) in Fast and Furious 4 has popped up for sale. And, as you’d expect, it’s a monster. Walker, who sadly passed away late last year, drove this heavily modified R34 Nissan Skyline in the fourth instalment of the epically popular movie franchise.

 

 

A little bit about this monster.. Underneath the hood sits a twin-turbo 2.6-litre straight-six engine with a giant front mounted intercooler. This RB26 sends around 550bhp to all four wheels via a six-speed Getrag transmission. We’re told that a simple software mod could see that power rocket up to over 1000bhp.

 

 

Then there’s a whole suite of goodies to get your inner Max Power fiend excited: Nismo lowering springs, a custom roll cage, an ARC titanium strut tower bar, Volk racing wheels, big brake conversion, a Nismo bumper and side skirts, no rear seats, a Momo Alcantara steering wheel, Nismo pedals and a custom head up display for a dash-mounted PC.

 

Oh, there’s also a Nismo exhaust, many gauges, custom seats and a “40-page appraisal from a well known accredited appraisal company documenting the build and movie car history, indicating a value range between €750,000 and €5,000,000.”

 

Yep – the car is estimated to sell for at least $1,000,000, but considering it’s covered just 6,000km, we suspect it’ll be significantly higher. Could it possibly reach the estimated upper range of that price tag of $5,000,000?

 

How much would you pay for such an iconic vehicle?

I'd rather have one of the stunt cars with VW engines. I couldn't drive that skyline. Getting backed into by some old lady would break my heart

[Kevin_Walter]

I wouldn't pay anything for it because spending millions for something just because it was owned by someone else is stupid, imo.

[XTankSlayerX]

I feel happy looking at one of those...

One day... One day ill have one of my own.

Congrats to who ever gets it, although it will most likely sit in a garage

[Ripull]

Great name for a car

[JoaoPRSousa]

6k€ for it, deal or no deal?

[Altecice]

old news. 

[ologiic]

Someone with more money than they know what to do with will buy it.

6k€ for it, deal or no deal?

your profile pic really works with that  :lol:

$1mil to $5mil for a Skyline? No way! even if they are near nonexistent in the U.S.

 

I fail to see the huge increase in price just cus Paul Walker drove one. 

[s3ns3]

since it only has 6000km,technically its a brand new car. i dont think its worth that 1M$+ estimation .i mean this skyline wasnt his daily driver ,it wast just used in the movie. 

 

whoever wants this car should just get a skyline and tune it themselfs. i mean thats a part of what fast and furious is about,car tuning

[Bloodyvalley]

that's quite a big margin.

[Deletive]

Thats a nice looking car. 
 

but for one million it's debatable whether it's worth it for me.

They had his one of his fast and furious cars at Barret Jackson last year (from 2 fast 2 furious) Anyway I don't think it got too much money at auction. Mind you in person it wasn't really a nice car. 

 

$46 000 US     http://www.barrett-jackson.com/Archive/Event/Item/2001-MITSUBISHI-EVO-CUSTOM-4-DOOR-2-FAST-2-FURIOUS-161427

This is not what I pictured when I read R34

[shiftberry]

$1,000,000 would buy me a fucking P1.

I love the skylines but the price is quite preposterous.

 

edit: I would buy a lot of vintage cars with that amount of money.
