The story behind the 1971 Nissan Skyline HT 2000 GT-R
The 2025 release of the 1971 Nissan Skyline HT 2000 GT-R brings a true automotive legend back to shelves for modern fans. This model is part of the Vintage Racing Club assortment, which focuses on historic vehicles with significant motorsport heritage. The original car was known as a high-performance grand tourer in Japan and Europe during the early seventies, earning it the nickname 'Godzilla' later on due to its dominance on tracks like Nürburgring. In this 1/64 scale rendition, you get that iconic wide-body look with distinctive orange paint and black side stripes. It sits proudly within the National Icons series for 2025, celebrating influential designs from around the world.
