seen it like two months ago. don't know why they chose an old ass skyline. i know the cars have to be street legal or something like that and that year skyline was at some point street legal here in the states. but still, it's an old ass car. car kept falling apart on that show.

I agree, it was a stupid choice. I think if it wasn't for the bad wheel bearing the Skyline would have won the challange

In the end:

Jetta won interior competition
Skyline won horsepower competition
Cobalt SS won the time trial competition
(Skyline dropped trans/Jetta Blew Up NOS )

GM couldn't care less if the Jetta had 20 T.V.s in the car, they made a race-ready cobalt that killed in the time trial.

I tried watching but could they really have made it any more boring?

They waste so much time on nonsense, I wish they would have just made a 2 hour long show and left all of the needless crap out.

I wish I could buy a DVD on the complete Cobalt assembly.

It had freaking 800 horsepower, of course something will break. I hate skylines I think they're overrated pieces of dirt Needless to say I was very pleased when it kept breaking. And how was that car even in the same class as the other 2? They shouldve gotten like a rsx-s, or srt-4, or something thats close, not already over 300hp imo.
