This is Godzilla in its purest form – the R34 GT-R is an icon, and this one’s in the holy grail color: Bayside Blue. It’s raw, it's rare, and it still punches way above its weight.
Overview
SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R showing just 62,470 km (38,817 mi) on the odometer at the time of cataloging. Finished in Bayside Blue over a gray cloth cabin, this coveted Japanese sports car cemented the Godzilla moniker and is considered one of the all-time greats.
Nissan’s Skyline GT-R has a long and storied history, with no shortage of desirable models, but when the R34 series launched in 1999, it was packing the RB26DETT inline-6 and a cutting-edge powertrain. There was the DOHC 24-valve twin-turbo mill, ATTESA AWD, Super HICAS rear-wheel steering, and Brembo brakes.
A future star of the silver screen, the R34 Skyline GT-R stole the performance out of the gate with its sub-8-second Nürburgring (unofficial) time, making it faster than a Ferrari 360 Modena. Today’s stunning example brings all that history wrapped up in the iconic shade of Bayside Blue.
