A Brief History of the Nissan Skyline Transcript:
The Skyline was first introduced in 1957 as a four-door sedan and five-door station wagon. It was built by Japan’s Prince Motor Company which later merged with Nissan in 1966.
In 1969 the Skyline officially became a Nissan, when the first performance-bred Skyline GT-R debuted at the Tokyo Motor Show.
The first two-door version was introduced in 1970 but a global gasoline crisis and a move towards stricter emissions standards stalled any further development.
In 1989 the R32 Skyline GT-R was launched. Equipped with all-wheel drive and the infamous RB26DETT it made 280 horsepower, and marked the beginning of a legend.
Its successor, the R33, didn’t appear until January 1995. The R33 was faster and more stable due to improvements in weight distribution, traction control, and a new all-wheel drive system.
A more streamlined body and shorter wheel base was introduced in 1998 with the R34 Skyline GT-R. This model produced even higher performance than its predecessors.
In 2008, the legendary sports car was made available for sale in both Canada and the USA as the GT-R. Nissan dropped the Skyline name and added a twin-turbo V6 that put out 473 horsepower, propelling the GT-R to performance levels that could outclass many American, German, and Italian sports cars.

[@jackdavis7772]

You're doing the world a service with your channel.

[@HerbertWest99]

PetrolTV has the best selection of car memes.

[@aubriemorse8925]

allowing PetrolTV to do a livestreamed long-form testride would be the kicker.

[@daibakibornora6210]

Thank you for giving such great advice.

[@jaysoncox5010]

This was the greatest PetrolTV rant ever

[@carmelkuris8452]

Really liked the vehicle and decided to buy one.

[@daxroach5406]

I agree 100% with PetrolTV

[@firefighterbre]

Kelley Blue Book silently cries in the distance.

[@charitycarlson7757]

I'm such a child when it comes to cars...

[@velocirapter1655]

It's a shame we don't have more cars like a Nissan Skyline!

[@sylviececconi4373]

Thanks for the honest insights, your advices are priceless.

[@pixsnails382]

2022 car of the year by Motor Trend, was the PT Cruiser.

[@chrissiemaus8032]

Cars are often bought as an emotional rather than rational purchase.

[@dirindilla]

You speak the truth.

[@cordyyost9026]

It reminds me of a lot of used cars sales online, especially when the person selling it knows nothing about vehicles.

[@fergusroldan1886]

lotsa features like tech, engine and driving feel.

[@emmaarendt640]

Come on PetrolTV!!!

[@tuanhalsted2611]

Hello PetrolTV!!

[@PetrolTV]

Hello there!

[@stevecervantes3337]

I pay more attention to PetrolTV's waving arms than his words..........

[@maesahagun4401]

I'll take PetrolTV's advice over any other mechanic or review channel.

[@haleymagin3843]

PetrolTV may have enter the witness protection program after this one

[@bkennedy9770]

Simple rule of thumb: Look at the resale value of the car after, say, 3 years or 5 years.

[@melisandebennett5505]

one thing to keep in mind is that these car reviewers normally do not review reliability.

[@georgebranscum370]

ultimate flex if it went well for them.

[@ericdickens9057]

Oh... this was a good on PETROLTV~

[@PetrolTV]

Thanks for watching!

[@rolandkantar2958]

If there’s not even one picture of the engine, then I skip and move onto the next one.

[@ahanaghose8780]

That should give one giant clue on car's reliability.

[@cecilyyacono5549]

If they forgot to take a picture of the engine, then they likely forgot about it when it needed maintenance too.

[@maksymwielgus665]

car companies heavily rely on exploiting that weakness to maximise profit.

[@franklinphelps5644]

I watched a car “review” that never even mentioned the engine, or even opened the hood.

[@Alejandrolopez-tu6do]

My fiancé gets mad at me because i always say "well PetrolTV says..."

[@luveniagrier6250]

Fine if you love cars but not if you just want to get from A to B!

[@maurakennamer5631]

There are a lot of things to avoid, but I don't like mentioning them, because those people will only find a way to hide such things.

[@estellasexton7545]

It came with a six figure price tag as well.

[@maximummm2347]

2019 Car of The Year is the 1994 Toyota Celica.

[@loiseantoine3576]

I love how your cat🐈 can be seen in the background randomly from time to time 😂

[@sandraoman9764]

Car expense is Huge expense other than the rent for middle class.

[@silviaramirez8946]

Just be careful of how much truth you tell, we don't want you disappearing mysteriously.

[@finalcut5906]

We must protect this man at all costs. He has the power to save mankind.

[@lmaoitzdiana7860]

step 1 no potato camera

[@DynamicEffectStep]

The way I see it, let them make those mistakes so I know which vehicles to avoid.

[@martafernandezmartin4754]

Code only works in UK, bummer.🥚

[@osmancan3977]

Nissan Skylines what u guys are here for

[@DEATHWISHVQ]

R35 is not under the skyline umbrella.

[@PetrolTV]

ahhh damn it you're right, got carried away with r32, r33, r34... "Whereas all old GT-Rs were the absolute top of the line in the relevant Skyline platform of their respective generation, the R35 GT-R is a 'standalone' vehicle. Because of this fact, the R35 is not a Skyline."

[@aanjaneyaborah8832]

When that guy said "since all cars are well made and doesnt break" I wish I could've seen PetrolTV face😂😂

[@gokcemkuzey1915]

No clubsport option on the Nissan Skyline hhahaha.

[@elizabethsteena7014]

FIRST OH YEAH BABY FIRST

[@chaheldhekial9610]

It was all about the wood and comfort of the interior back then.

[@peisynder413]

They did say it was a smooth ride, and that they improved the suspension, but never said how.

[@karatekind4219]

How much will the Nissan Skyline cos nowadays. Ridiculous.

[@nortonterzis9235]

Here's why car review channels are full of crap
