so sad to see.

I dont believe the story behind it. I think it was an illegal skyline and was destroyed because of that.

we should bow our heads in silence....Then find the bastard that allowed this. grr. such a waste.

I used to go on the AZ240 forum and i believe that was an illegal import as people in AZ do that more. like the lovely S15 thats out there. cheers.

Man that's sad. I don't believe the story either, states would auction that off, not just destroy it. Still, very, sad.

That's an automatic GTS anyway. Who wants that? And yeah, like Megaseth said, it was a Nissan test car from what I heard about it.

I cant believe it was a test car from nissan, they wouldnt have it destroyed AND have let people take pictures of it. As for the pictures being different have you ever heard of changing mods.

the type of wheels doesnt give reason to who owned it or how it was used. Im still not so sure that Nissan would test a skyline then let it be destroyed in an area where billy bob could come and take a picture.

the wheels designate what trim level the skyline is. the wheels on it in the first pics in the start section are GTR wheels. the wheels it has on are the stock ones. it also looks like it has holes in the side of it in the end pics. its not the same car.

well considering the reason he got caught was becuase it was in an accident proves it wasnt a test car and he very easily could have changed those wheels back to the stock wheels. It also proves why there may be hole in the end pic. Not to mention there is a hole under the blinker in the start and a hole in the end pic at the bottom of the fender.

But what you aren't understanding is that *both* sets of wheels are stock wheels...just different trim levels. I don't know about you, but I don't keep a set of stock Sentra GXE wheels on hand to swap out in case my car gets totalled.

No I understand that, but maybe he did have those. You never know what people will do when it comes to money. Im just saying I dont believe it was a test vehicle for nissan.
