Ex-paul Walker Nissan Skyline R34 Could Be Worth ₦150m by Kayharry(m): 11:20pm On Oct 22, 2020 |
Prior to his untimely death, beloved actor Paul Walker owed a burgeoning collection of cars and had a particular fascination for Nissan Skylines. One of the most valuable cars Walker owned is an R34-generation Skyline GT-4 V-Spec that’s among just a handful in the United States. Taking to YouTube, a man by the name of Craig Lieberman discusses the rare R34 GT-R that Walker used to own – and it has a very interesting history. Lieberman was a technical advisor for the Fast & Furious franchise and introduced Walker to the GT-R. Back in the day, a handful of R34 models were imported to the U.S. by a company called MotoRex. They were kind enough to loan Walker an R34 and, before long, the actor fell in love with the car and quickly purchased one for himself. Walker’s former R34 is a V-Spec model in Sonic Silver. Interestingly, Walker didn’t keep it for that long and decided to sell it and buy a white V-Spec II model instead. The car was then sold to a man in Hawaii who set about turning it into a replica of the R34 that MotoRex first loaned Walker, lovingly known as the ‘Blackbird.’ As such, the car was fitted with a C-West bodykit and other custom parts. Just when you thought the story couldn’t get any more intriguing, the car was later seized from the Hawaiian owner by the DEA and sold at auction to a man in Texas. Currently, it is under the possession of a JDM importer. Nissan Skyline R34 models won’t be legal to import into the United States until 2024, and this example is one of just 14 to have been imported new by MotoRex back in the day. Given its rarity and its famous former owner, Lieberman says it could be worth up to $400,000 (₦150m). see more pics=== http://kayharry.com/paul-walker-nissan-skyline-r34-worth/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFrVyiK4Mfc
