BT2 - Championship Blue - Calsonic Blue- Nissan Skyline GT-R R32

BT2 R32 GT-R. Not an original Color

BT2 - Championship Blue - Calsonic Blue- Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 .  This R32 was one of the nicest ones we have ever seen. Not only does the color really pop in real life, but the addition of the white Volk Magnesium wheels, Brembo brakes, Recaro seats, Impul steering wheel, and full NISMO Omori restoration made this car about perfect.   This blue has a certain smoothness to it, kind of a creamy color.  Just one of hundreds of R32 GT-R that we have sold in the USA.  If you are looking for 25 year old legal vehicles, contact us here.
