1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 V-Spec I in Bayside Blue.
№ 06 / 19 · 1999 MY

The R34 V-Spec I is the most-photographed, most-mythologized JDM car of the 1999 era — a status earned through motorsport pedigree, gray-market unattainability in North America, and starring roles in PlayStation Gran Turismo and the early Fast & Furious franchise.

The 25-year U.S. import window opened for 1999 cars in 2024. Bayside Blue (TV2) is the iconic colour and the only one that matters for hero photography.

RB26DETT inline-six, twin ceramic turbochargers, closed-deck block, individual throttle bodies. V-Spec I trim: ATTESA-ETS Pro AWD with active rear LSD, Super-HICAS rear-wheel steering, MFD telemetry display.

Risk note: Most R34s have been tuned; original-spec, low-mile examples with matching numbers carry the disproportionate share of value.
