the skyline from the F&F movie has to one of the best cars in the state! I would give my left nut for that car, it's %100 perfection when it comes to cars, how can they smash a car that nice? I would sue the crap out of them!!

Why does anyone care about that F&F2 Skyline?
It's a total mock up car. SCC did a test drive on all the FF2 cars, and the hot pink S2K was hands down the fastest best setup of all the cars.
That's sad...
The govt needs to just stop *****ing about japanese imports. I don't see them busting all the other cars.

This is amazing. When our economy is at it's worst, when people are jobless and hurting from the shortage of government help they decide to put man effort and god knows how much money in spendiing to get rid of less then a thousand cars?
If the cars were a direct threat to the health of humans, or if they were a huge envirinental problem, then maybe U can see the effort that they are putting together to save lives, or something to that tune.
The problem here is none of the stuff I said applies. Its a huge waste of money and effort that could be used to help people get work, or even save lives, etc.
I didn't realize that R34's were such a huge threat to require a task force to remove them from our streets
This is beyond stuoid... BEYOND!!!!

i have been following this story for some time. the whole story can be found here:
http://gtrusa.blogspot.com/
basically the issue is that kaizo was selling these as cars, and making $ off of it. As the law clearly states, its not illegal to import parts, and build a car. The issue here is that it was intended to be put back together with the original parts of that exact car, and then a loophole was used to register said "car"
this truely is pathetic though, that our hard earned $ that the government steals is being used to fund such a pathetic lame government scheme.
Technically if i understand it correctly, the only people that it should apply to is KAizo, because the defrauded the customer by selling them something not completely legal.

seriously if even that. I'd say more like 1-200 tops.
Put it this way, they made 3000 STIs a year, so 5000 GTRs would be nearly all the 06-07 STIs on the road, I see at least 1-2 of those a day here. I can count on 1 hand the amount of times I've seen any R32/33/34 on the road in the last 10 years! this is some REAL bureaucratic BS thats an answer to a problem that doesnt exist
