I haven't seen it, but from what I've heard, what I'd do is dericify it and have them ship it directly to motorex, or another good RB tuner around here.

In the small print it says the winner pays for legalization, so in the long run that girl isn't gonna get it anyway.

It was given away as a promotion for NFSU and you had to watch every episode this week to find the hidden license plates in the videos to win. I didn't know about it until Wed when I saw it on the NFSU website.

man, i bet as soon as that girl was off camera they told her 'oh yeah, just so you know, this car isn't legal to be registered how it is right now. you have to pay about 10g's for that. enjoy!'


i'd sell it on ebay.

Thats where they get her, the legaization fees. Unlgalized skylines are pretty cheap, and that kit and rims are ugly. But then again, thats a pretty big single turbo, I bet its puttin out some decent numbers. Oh well, she probably won't legalize it, which means she wont use it. Ten bucks says that it'll be on ebay within a month.

The car doesnt have that turbo, it was converted back to stock twins.

riced out? FUCK YOU! I hate people like this who call ANY exterior mods rice... that car looks fucking GOOD, and judging from those pics, its got the performance to back it up. YOU, PERSONALLY, are the reason that rice is so overused. fuck you.

shit man, look at it. it's got friggin FWD offset wheels on it:aw:

sure it's a skyline, but it's done in bad taste in the looks department.

If I won it, which I wouldn't(cause I cant stand MTV for more than 2 seconds) I wouldn't take it. If you read the fine print on the contest rules, the car is not legalized, and the cash value of the prize was $75,000!!!! I could do alot better with the 75k

$75k or that Skyline? :o I'll take the cash and get an R33 from Motorex and mod it with the rest of the money.

Rice?
If the first thing you thought to yourself when you saw the front fascia wasn't "rice", I feel for you.

And those side skirts suck too.

Uhh, how about a house? LOL

How much would insurance on that cost, anyway?

What is there to be confused about? It's a ridiculous looking, over the top bumper. It's rice.
It's the type of stuff that tasteless highschool kids like.
Can you not see that it doesn't flow with the rest of the vehicle?
It does not compliment the cars shape in any way.

That car is hideous..If I won that thing I'll take all the exterior shit off of it and make it look stock again, then i'll take all that unecessary electronic crap outta there and sell it, with that money I'll get a new paint job and then make the car a track car, i'll just keep it in my garage until i took it to the track
:D

convert outside back to stock, primer it, rip out the electronic bull shit, sell that and put a bigger turbo in it, stock wheels, then here comes the touge monster skyline. but theres no way in hell i could afford insurence. id drive it without insurence.

Eek!

The swapped a perfectly designed R34 seats for POS Sparcos?

Wasn't that Craig Lieberman's old car? 'Cause that'll explain the ricey-ness.

There is no way in hell shes gonna drive it due to insurance, she probably can't drive a RHD vehicle if her life depended on it. She probably said this to the mtv people "does this car like come in like automatic? And like why is this like on the wrong sideeeeee?" And this too also pisses me off, shes gonna sell it or have it sitting in her garage and let the beautiful skyline rot.

So now I know where the new WRX stole its rear fenders from. I knew they looked familiar. :rolleyes:
