This will make you cry ......

[Nizmo]

My dad went to a scrap metal yard today ........ what was left of this blue R34 GTR was a small little cube of metal Customs had seized the R34 GTR (what reason dad n i dont know) and a few other imports and sent them to be crushed ... the guy that owned the yard reckons he almost cried as he was doing it. Broke my heart .... how can you crush an R34 GTR??? :hellpisd:

R.I.P :angel:

i wouldnt actually cry... it may be sad, but its just a car

[Nizmo]

Im sorry but my car is more than a car to me .... its more like a pet .... and i would cry if i saw a dog or cat put in the crusher! I want to know why customs seized it tho! Anyone got any ansewers as why customs may give a beautiful car like this the death penalty?

[MirKz]

maybe it had been "smuggled" into australia.

[fane]

i would cry

[2crazy]

maybe they didn't fill out the correct paperwork before sending the car over. Still thats not what should happen to the cars Turn them into race/rally cars only :headspin:

[Pva_Glue]

its a just a car...

it gets you from A to B

having said that...

if there wasnt skyline, I wont met such a nice people of SAU

[hippy]

why would they be crushed?? couldnt' they just be taken apart for parts??

[G0DF4Th3R]

yeah i wouldnt cry if it was some random guys car getting crushed but whutever

[rob77]

It was probably crushed due to some discrepency in the car if they were trying to go through SEVS/RAWS. A small amount of damage, ie the type that could occur in the shipping process, can result in it having to be destroyed.

Whatever reason it may be there is going to be one pissed off person on the other side loosing his $80,000 skyline!!

I prob would cry.... i just stuffed up my control arm and little bits like that costing $1200 and i nearly cried.... it's like my little baby just broke her leg :-( :Oops:

I hear ya Lauren, i guessd when you spend enough time or money on something then ya become attached, before i bought my skyline i sold my VL , i was sad to see it go.

[IMACUL8]

To compare a skyline (or any car for that matter) to a loved pet, such as a dog (i hate cats) is BLOODY rediculous.

I have two dogs, had them for 8 and 10 years respectively and they are loved LIVING creatures.... you may put alot of time and effort into a car - but at the end of the day its a piece of metal with 4 wheels and few other bits and pieces....

R34 GTR crushed... sad yes, but tragedy or life altering NO.

i wouldnt cry...

i was a chic maybe i would

[fane]

it is life altering if you spent $50k on it and importing it only to get it crushed

im sticking with the fact that i would probably cry... :|

[Nizmo]

each to their own Immacul8 .... but pathetic as it maybe thats how i view my car .... sorry.

Yeah guess it could be import docs werent filled out or something - but yeah pity it just couldnt be stripped for parts.

[goulash]

i would cry

you cried when you broke your enkei's ;p

[docile]

if i was a chic maybe i would

Thats a given When are they not crying!! j/k's ladies

Im with IMACUL8 here, as much as i love my car, its just that.

Theres gonna be one pissed off person out there

[Nizmo]

its the "Maternal Instinct" boys .... while we are taking it out on the car ..... we are not pressuring you for babies

[JH32]

I'm sorry but I'm with IMACUL8 here too

I mean c'mon get a life it's just a car

Some people are just way too obsessed about cars

[Pva_Glue]

for me... its not jsut about cars...

its the people who associated with the car so called "SKYLINERS"
