A Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 used in the 2009 film Fast and Furious is up for sale in Germany with an asking price of €1 million. The car, finished in the franchise’s well-known bright blue, was driven on screen by Paul Walker as Brian O’Conner and features several modifications that set it apart from a standard R34 GT-R.

This particular Skyline was used for filming in Fast and Furious 4, where it played a key role during the border crossing sequence into Mexico. Since the film’s release and Paul Walker’s death, the car’s value has reportedly more than doubled, with the current seller seeking €1 million for the car. The car is currently located in Germany.

Specification and modifications

Under the bonnet, the car retains its 2.6-litre twin-turbocharged straight-six engine, but power has been increased to 543hp. It is paired with a six-speed manual gearbox and all-wheel drive. Other upgrades include uprated brakes, 19-inch Volk Racing RE30 wheels, a Nismo body kit, and a rear seat delete. The cabin features a Sony audio system and a custom head-up display, reflecting the car’s film requirements as well as performance intent.

Fast and Furious provenance

The R34 GT-R is one of the most recognisable cars from the Fast and Furious franchise, and this example’s screen time with Paul Walker adds to its appeal for collectors. The car’s film history and modifications are likely to attract buyers interested in both Japanese performance icons and Hollywood memorabilia. Its price puts it among the most expensive Skylines ever offered on the open market.
