Wer kennt den Wagen nicht? Big Bird aus dem 1. TF&TF Teil. Leider
dreht sich heute eine sehr dunkle Seite des amerikanischen Rechtssystems
über dieses Auto. Ich hab es bei Speedhunters gelesen und auf Facebook
gepostet, dachte mir aber, es ises wert auch hier zu posten, da wohl
die meisten den Wagen kennen.
ZitatAlles anzeigenThe history of the Nissan Skyline in the United States is a dark one,
filled with tales of black market activity and government intervention.
The latest bit of controversy involves the “Big Bird” R33 that was
featured in the original The Fast and the Furious movie.
A couple years ago after the car’s registration was improperly handled
in the state of Wisconsin, the state’s DMV caught wind and seized the
car, along with another imported GT-R. Despite numerous attempts by the
car’s owner to straighten out the situation, both Skylines are due to be
crushed today.
We don’t like to get political, but it’s a shame to see the government
putting so much effort into ridding the country of a couple imported
Nissans when there are so many bigger, actually important issues out
there.
We’ll miss you, Big Bird.
