WIKI is unreliable but links to legitimate sources like AP, CBC, BBC, ABC, CBS, MSN, National Post, etc are more reliable... They have to be fairly accurate or risk litigation...


And yet you seem perfectly happy to dismiss Car and Driver, Consumer Reports or the Globe and Mail when they kick your points in the head. Hypocrite.

They do have heritage like a corvette. They have been made for 50 years. But because of xenophobic mindset, no one kept them around until the 80s.


Fine. Now prove a 1963 Skyline is as valuable as a 1963 Corvette? Or a 1957 Skyline to that of a 1957 Corvette? IF these cars are so desirable they must command som big money in Asia!!!! NOW...Please enlighten me or is the above merely your opinion (of course to which you are fully entitled)....


How about a 72 Skyline for 67 grand?

And if the foot was on the other shoe.... Do you think the Japanese would have been so hospitable... Ask China how generous Japan is after a war...

Besides the Empire of Japan picked the fight...

Japan, which has the world's second-largest economy, was the No. 1 provider of overseas aid in the 1990s. After years of sluggish economic growth, the country ranks fifth among donor nations according to the organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.

Yep, the Japanese never give anything to anyone... :roll:
