History always repeats itself - but the time proves far better than most. A 1972 Skyline GT-R has just appeared on the Seattle streets, and itâ€™s leaving both critics and consumers speechless.

According to Road and Track, a Skyline (which was originally designed for the European market) has been spotted in Seattle. This car boasts a 2.0L L20 straight-six engine. Thanks to the original triple Mikuni carburetor design and the inclusion of an aftermarket limited slip-differential, this powerpoint promises 158 HP. A six-speed manual transmission yields impeccable handling, while the dual spoilers slice through drag with precision. Bolt-on fender flares further improve performance, helping to reduce overall friction when cornering.

This allows the Skyline to charge from 0 to 60 in 7.9 seconds - and it ensures a quarter-mile time of only 16.2 seconds. This speedy GT-R will prove equally at home in the city or on the track.

The 1972 Skyline embodied Nissanâ€™s best design elements - and weâ€™re thrilled to see this platform find its way from the showroom to the streets. To learn more about it (or to take a peek at our current GT-R models) contact our team today.
