Nissan Skyline Gtr R34 From "2 Fast 2 Furious" Movie on 2040-cars
Spokane, Washington, United States
Nissan Skyline GTR R34 from "2 Fast 2 Furious" movie.
Yes! This is in fact the actual car used in the making of the movie "2 Fast 2 Furious" (the second movie in the "Fast and the Furious" movie franchise). This is the very same car used to film the scene where Paul Walker jumps over law enforcement agents on the bridge. This car was known to Universal Pictures as "Car # 25". When this car was jumped, the wing broke off upon landing, which is why it is not on the car now. There were a total of 4 of these same looking cars used in the making of "2 Fast 2 Furious", all of which looked like the identical car on camera. Only this car was used for the famous bridge jump. This car has many fabrications and safety modifications all done by a team at Universal Pictures to meet insurance specification to make the jump scene as safe as possible for the stunt driver. Everything has been kept original as it came from Universal Pictures, with one exception: the company that created the sticker decals for the cars in the movie owned the copyrights to the designs, so the stickers were removed after the movie was made. The owner of this car paid to have a representative from this company fly up to Spokane and re-apply the decals on the car just as they were for the movie. The seller has owned this car for the last 9 years. The car has not been driven other than to reposition parking. The car has sat on a showroom floor/in storage at a business in Spokane Washington as an attraction. When transported it has always been trailered. The seller intends on making a contribution to Paul Walker's charity "Reach Out WorldWide" upon the sale of this vehicle. Here are the base specs of the car itself - Year- 1999 Motor- 2.6L RB26DETT I6 Twin Turbo Transmission- 6 speed manual, All-Wheel-Drive Right side driven Runs and drives great. This car may not be legal to drive/own in all countries or jurisdictions. Buyer is responsible for knowing their local laws. |

Nissan's new GT-R boss says next car will go for more volume
Mon, 07 Oct 2013Since its introduction in 2008, the Nissan GT-R has seen a steady increase of power and price almost every year, but the big news for the next-gen supercar might be an increase in production. Automotive News recently spoke with newly appointed GT-R chief engineer Kinishi Tanuma who said Nissan needs "more of a volume car." Nissan has sold a little more than 2,000 GT-Rs in the US since 2012 - 1,188 last year and 952 so far this year.
Of course, a key limiting factor in the GT-R's production is its hand-built engine. Currently, only four people are qualified to build the GT-R's twin-turbo V6, but Tanuma says a fifth is in training. Even if production numbers are raised, Nissan also wants to add more quality and value into the GT-R. There is still no word as to what kind of timeframe Nissan is looking to start pumping out more GT-Rs, but with a new Nismo model rumored to be bringing a two-second 0-60 time, demand is sure to be on the rise.
Infiniti readying small crossover for China, is it Juke based?
Tue, 15 Apr 2014The small crossover is the superstar segment of the global automotive industry at the moment. With the love that Nissan has for the form with vehicles like the Juke and the Rogue, it should come as no surprise that Infiniti is going to hop into the market as well. However, its luxury CUV is likely going to remain exclusive to China for the time being.
The first hint of the Chinese Infiniti crossover leaked as dark silhouette looking a lot like the Juke, during a brand press conference said to be held in Beijing. It suggested that the model would use the Nissan platform but incorporate unique styling.
Leftlane News speculated that it could be among the company's debuts at the upcoming Beijing Motor Show, but that appears not to be the case. Infiniti spokesperson Kyle Bazemore has confirmed to Autoblog that a "small premium crossover" is under development for China. However, "Details of the vehicle will be announced at a later date. It will not debut at Beijing Motor Show," he said. Also, don't get too excited about the prospects of driving an Infiniti small CUV, because Bazemore says the company has no plans to offer this model elsewhere.
Nissan union wants French to stop meddling with Renault alliance
Thu, Dec 3 2015Nissan is getting some unexpected reinforcements in its ongoing battle with the French government over its involvement in Renault. Its Japanese union, which has traditionally been a very hands-off entity, issued harsh criticism for the French government's attempts to assert control over its alliance partner. According to Bloomberg, this is the first time in 16 years that Nissan's union has weighed on the company's affairs, and it's stating its position on the matter in no uncertain terms. The union called France's attempt at scoring double voting rights within Renault "unacceptable and against the intended spirit of the Alliance." "We support the numerous attempts of Nissan to engage with the French government to find a balanced and constructive solution that will benefit and strengthen the Alliance," the union said in a statement obtained by Reuters. It's unclear what impact the union speaking out will have on the current power struggle between Renault-Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn (shown above) and the French government, but we doubt it'll contribute to any quicker of a conclusion.
