NISSAN Skyline Jeremy Clarkson 

Scraps G waits what’s a zoomer?

@@MrDannyboyFL the younger generation basically I think so.

@Scraps G I just think it's a dope car 🤷

@Scraps G trust me, no one wants to be a millennial

little did they know then 12 year olds would fanboy over the r32 and especially the r34 claiming it has 1500hp stock and other complete rubbish

Real south Auckland New Zealand

I’m currently sitting in sun city arizona and I’ll tell you, it’s much nicer now lol driving here sucks tho.

@@shontelletahitahi3837 ya dreamer! Christchurch is and always will be the land of the RB more cars with RB motors than any other place in New Zealand

@@LegacyLife_555 done a couple years in Christchurch complete reinforcing

@@shontelletahitahi3837 oh oosh! Yeah I know of that company they go hard from what I’ve heard

It's gorgeous now because nothing looks like it. Back then the cars looked boring but that was the intention, cheap, fast and modify. A new era that hits so hard that traditional styling has been changed forever.

Change your fucking photo you insufferable coomer

@@8401six 🤣🤣🤣

Eh, it reminds me of a Nissan maxima in person.

I can imagine people in 20 yrs liking the car designs we have now even if we don't completely lol

​@@krizmasekIt'll happen. I didn't even like how cars looked back in the 90s and 2000s but I love the style now. I'm sure many who are growing up watching the new type r take record laps around the nurburgrin will find themselves lusting after it when they turn 19 or 20. Then it'll go up on price

Come to Australia. The R32 GTR is king of the road and 98% of car people know what it is as it dominated over here.

I think most people know about the R32 these days.

The Porsche 911 looks like a tryhard that fails to achieve true aesthetics, the GTR, although the grill and headlights need work, was much more aesthetically pleasing. Fortunately Nissan perfected the exterior with the R34. New Porsches look like....old Porsches with modern paint/steel/plastic and slightly different proportions. The new GTR was it's own animal as far as styling, although it's waaay overpriced and it's way overdue for a refresh. That's why I loved the GTR as a version of the skyline or the Chevelle as a version of the Malibu, it made for affordable beasts. In today's dollars a 1991 GTR would cost 60 grand, the same as a C8 Corvette. But NOOO Nissan wants almost TWICE that. So they took a Japanese muscle car that had huge cult following and decided to price it like a supercar even though it's not. You can build it into a near supercar but it'd cost more money than just buying a slightly used supercar, so it only appeals to rich dudes with a JDM fetish which is a niche market.

@@neuronaut8030 new 911's are as well far from their old design... i don't know what you mean by ''Porsche 911 looks like a tryhard that fails to achieve true aesthetics'' tho

@@traviswalker8933 Defo not lol. Only car guys

The yellow R33?

@@rushilkisoon No, that's the JUN R33 He's talking about the grey r32

@@vangattan ah. I would have thought that identifying such a “common” spec would be a long shot. But I guess the 83-30 plate was enough to get the relevant information

Gloss black? FFS

@@recall2880 ikr? Should be hot pink instead 🙄

It could well be the pedestrian safety legislation. Somewhere in the first two seasons of Clarkson/Wilman TG, Clarkson brings in two car designers. He laments about how pedestrian safety legislation means you can never get the shapes you got on those days ever again.

Although if you ask me, I wish Autobacs Sport Laboratory actually brought to mass production the Garaiya and the RS-01.

Clarkson kinda briish though... he might of been a bit upset the production crew didn’t give him he’s tea break?

@@michaelangelo789 :/

It’s a truly terrible car

@@joedirt6212 what makes you think that?

@@joedirt6212 if you are planning it to be a practical family hauler.....yep its a truly terrible car😂....lol

It's so wierd to hear that they thought 850hp was the most the rb26 can make with modifying. Rn there are more than 1200hp rb's

@@GunDomiGameplay yea , I remember my civic hatchback 97 was already fast with 230hp lol

I mean.. what about today...

@@yun514 a base model late 80s Civic coupe could cruise at 85 MPH and still get 40 MPG.

@@markusandrejeff1940 no, that was a dumb statement, the R32 GT-R had the RB26. Base model had the 20, 25

I honestly think it should stay like that, because it looks understated and unsuspecting. It also looks simple but aggressive.

yeah im not even the biggest japanese car fan and i think it looks great. very modernist and simplistic, crisp straight lines and simple geometry. a car doesnt need tons of complicated curvatures to be good looking

Its beautiful! Clarkson is just a nutter

You're saying this now. But think about people's opinion in the 90s when the R32 was new. Compared to European exotics of that era like the 959, F40, Testarossa, Countach, Diablo etc the Skyline does look very dull.

@@longtailgt just like your mother vey dull

Gearbox and final drive gear do all the magic when it's about 0-60

Hhmm... But will he say this if he in a ferrari and godzilla just kills the italian exotic?

He's such a wank

@@Xxassass1n021xX you are

it's a strategic design choice. the driver wants to finish the race so he can get out.

@@Tokyu-oj8oz a Ferrari would smoke the skyline on track and in a straight line

as we all should

The r33 is just beautiful, My favorite skyline by far.

Atleast you made someone in 2016 very very happy

My uncle had one but sold it a few years ago I think I miss it more than him

@@tommillard4193 LMAO

Btw why is it called Godzilla?

@@marcopol0117 it won almost every race it entered and the Australians were shocked and gave it a fitting nickname , Godzilla!

@@lobaton3187 that was meant as a racial slur lol

Amazing car

Lmao same 😂

Lol same

Nice

because of smoking

Nothing wrong, but its design is simply not like that of a beast that the car actually is. I love the R32 design, At the beginning it does look like a Sleeper, but it just took seconds for me to appreciate it, The R32 doesn't flaunt its beauty like an European Exotic simply because The R32 GT-R itself was incepted from a economy car, heck it even has its economy 4 door models a 2 door RB25 version.. thats why many people may think the R32 falls short when it comes to design.

Just because it's in some cartoon doesn't make it any good.

@@echo3-125 What are you even talking about?

@@wagswams5842 he's talking about Inital D and Wangan Midnight, both were animes featuring these cars a lot

@@DMC_Motorsports oh wait idk wangan midnight has an anime. i only play the game

Early 90s hahah

That's the thing about older Japanese sports car, it's all about the 'go'. Sure, imo, italian supercars are fast while also a beauty.

At the time yes it was a world beater ☺️

The R32 isnt ugly at all, but just too simple

This was back when the car was new, considering the fact that it was a souped up economy car, it is pretty ugly for its time.

@@ToyotaCoronaAbsoluteT exactly..

Lol

Lmao underrated 💀

😂

Wow very interesting

I totally agree

I blame the French

@@Ninnuam999 would you mind explaining, i'm not that onto it, i just know that nissan has been trough a lot of stuff and their president was arrested or something like that

@@lauralumi9466 In the early 2000s renault bought a good chunk of the company, since then the quality of their cars has been falling down.

@@Ninnuam999 oh, i tottaly forgot that renault is french lol, never mind, i'm drunk😅

I agree

Semtex with a steering wheel

Very nice 😊

Power 🚗

Yes

it looks like basically any other 90s japanese car

R33 please. The back of the r32 just looks cheap and bland, it is a great car though.

@@sandtanmaroon No, japanese did build lot of ugly car in the 90's
