At the New York Auto Show in March, Nissan introduced its 565-horsepower GT-R sports car by unveiling it among five older variations on the model.
The vintage cars were Nissan Skylines, from the early 1970s all the way through 2001. The Skyline was the grandfather of the original GT-R line that had garnered Nissan massive racing and video-game notoriety. Two in particular caught the most attention from bystanders: A 1971 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R “Hakosuka” and a 1973 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R “Kenmeri.”
