and the fact that jay never discriminates about what car he has on the show from race cars to classic american to classic British,classic Japanese,classic Italian, classic German to modern versions of all the same countries and more if it is interesting at least lol even if its one of his own cars he just is all around truly passionate about cars and the history and everything that goes with it... so glad he has this channel...
Tyler T Agreed, he has excellent column in Octane magazine and you can see that his passion is actually Pre War american cars and post war Briitish sports car. But he talks every subjects with passion and respect.
again taught me something new lol never knew he wrote a column in a magazine and i will definitely start checking it out and reading it.. and yes his level of respect for any car of any era is just his pure passion for cars and also yeah you can tell he loves his pre war era stuff look at his different Bugatti's and others along those lines....
Tyler T He did! And one of the best column in the series (apart from Derek Bell) he talks from his love to steam engine, stories about how he was offered Lincoln Continental that was located only few miles from his garage that he is unaware of, the death of independent repairshop down to how some people behave when they lose Pebble Beach and how someone tried to make fake "Corvette Jay Leno edition" and offered in Barrett-Jackson auction.
My man jay ia a true car ENTHUSIAST he shows all around interest.... hes not one tracked on one product simply thats what I love.
i couldn't agree more!!!!
I love the sound of that engine.
this car just sounds right...perfect orgasmic sound
The S20 In this, the M in the 2000gt and the l28 from the later z cars and the Cedric all have a great note. Sound amazing
th-cam.com/video/NGKbRW5Sw88/w-d-xo.html The engine is very similar to the one in r380 racing car.
Hey Jay, just a little bit of info. My dad was in Japan after WW2, he was in transport and was a mechanic, had a workshop post war. His story about why Nissan was marketed as Datsun was because during the war the tanks and other japanese war machinery had NISSAN painted along the sides in large lettering. The company thought that America and Australia would react to the name so decided to go with Datsun.
I love how functional and subtly stylish it is
One of the most beautiful cars ever built. Thanks for showing it Jay. I think Jay was thinking the whole time, "I wonder how much I should offer to get this car?"
All right jay time for the AE86 i want to see this....
I had a 1986 Corolla GTS. Ordered it special. Got stolen after three months.
@@jazzsoul6067 Damn what a Shame. Im sorry for your loss.
@@sackarsch6572 Thanks! Just when I thought there were no civilized people that comment. I loved that car. Jay should do a review of the 1986 Corolla GTS.
Stolen damn... I have a ae86 😁 and a 180sx type x
FACTS why no one talk about the ae86
Man I learned a lot today.. This guy has to be one of the most well informed and/or well prepared guest Jay has ever had on his channel.
Q1
Q
I sure hope not. He didnt know a whole lot and got some info wrong along with kind of hiding the fact this was the special version of every other version of regular skyline
He knew a few interesting tidbits, but youd be surprised how much some guests on this channel know
The guy is just so unpassionate. So irritating that he owns the car. Probably just in for investment.
This has got to be one of the best historical automotive resources out there. I really appreciate that Jay wants to make all this history accessible and share the knowledge of every automobile.
I also watch the channel for the automotive history knowledge.
Thank you for featuring Hakosuka GTR, the soul of Japanese classic masterpiece.
And appreciate comment on Honda S600, JL.
Welcome to japan. 🇯🇵
What a beautiful machine, both in aesthetics, function and sound.
Love it!!
amen
I’ve got the 2-door version of that car. Of course it’s in my Forza garage on my X-Box....
😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Respectable flex though.
Lol I got it in GTA and NFS
Yeah me too. cept its parked in my pc garage. least its safe there for now.
22:45 probably the only time you'll see a 1969 nissan gtr next to an older volkswagen beetle
I love classic Japanese cars with mirrors on the fenders.
Justin Leeds Makes me want Ramen
Nowdays the only cars in japan that still have fender mirrors are toyota crown taxi's. I was thinking its because most taxi drivers are old guys but not too sure what the reason is.
It is growing on me. I think I remember Jay had a 240z on here with the mirrors on the fenders. Very cool car.
terry breedlove I think that was Sung Kang's car.....Han from the fast and furious......very expensive custom built car.....
Michael C jay leno garage morgan
I live a couple streets up from jays shop I’ve seen him driving and filming so many times the one time i don’t see him is when he’s driving one of my all time favorite cars
He's my favorite expert, just the facts, no bragging.
Gorgeous example. They bay was immaculate. Even the pinch welds under the rocker panel were straight. In 50 years it was never smashed by a jack stand or whatever. Thank you Jay and U.R. For featuring and preserving such an incredible price of JDM. History.
God, this is one of the most beautiful cars ever.
Yup, right up there with the original XK-E... not.
I agree.
Az Lean ......what?????
Az Lean R34s are overrated... Hakosukas not so
R34 looks like a toy to me. This on the other hand is just beautiful.
Jay's living the dream, and thankfully he's sharing it.
Best comment!
This car sounds phenomenal, love the engine note.
love the sound of straight six...
Jay's never been shy about showing Japanese cars.
Jayhawkga why should he ?
Cory Banning indeed, they're great. Maybe the OP's point was regarding the fact he's a more lived gent, as he mentioned in the video back in the 50s-60s people in the US didn't had the best impression of Japan, and so older generations tend not to appreciate what was made over there. Thankfully that's quite something typical of the [ignorant] minority, something Jay is not at all.
André Fontes yeah I completely see where you're coming from
André Fontes The japanese motorcycles helped "some" americans see how well the Japanese built vehicles.
André Fontes Jay is very open minded and has lived past all that kind of stuff.....but he knows why things are the way they are.....many things weren't appreciated because of hate and animosity.....that goes worldwide.....hopefully things change in future generations.....
*That exhaust note, has to be one of the best of all time...*
The sound. The stealth. Love this car.
Back in high school my friend had a Datsun with a straight 6 Dual over head cams . This was 1979 / 1980. It worked very well for a 4 door.
The Datsun cars in the 1970's made a name because they were fast. This Skyline is awesome! Nothing better than a factory race car!
The reason for the name Skyline is likely from the name of one of the more scenic roads in the country: The Hakone Skyline. It also extends a into the Izu Skyline, and is continued to be loved by drivers and weekend "racers" to this day. This makes sense to me but I don't know the true history myself.
Sounds as good as any theory i've heard - thanks!
Damn, that raspy sound, the pops and crackles when he lifts the throttle.
Just awesome.
What a beautiful car ... One of the best episodes on the show.. Fabulous work Mr. Leno.
Legendary JDM inline 6 sound.......I love that sound of Hakosuka GTR
touge
This car is the definition of timeless design. What a beauty. This would have a spot in my dream garage, the attention to detail and racing heritage , and man that sound. Makes me think of very, very dirty things.
I NEVER liked jay on his late night show, but God damn do I love this show. Him being interested in what hes talking about is so much more fun to watch
I'm not a big fan of all the cars Leno highlights; i love this type of type of stuff. I really appreciate Leno's love of all things that make noise, explode, and bring a smile to one's face. I love how he devotes his time and money to the restoration of all types of vehicles from all era's and nationalities. What i really loves is he uses them and runs them as they should be.
That motor sounds Beautiful. So glad i found Jay Lenos Garage.....my new favourite thing
One of my favorite videos of yours jay! Thanks for all your hard work. You're the coolest guy in Hollywood!
This car sounds glorious. Love this channel great detail and information. Much better than top gear.
What a good history lesson! For me, not knowing much about the history of Japanese motorsports, this was very informative. And what a beautiful sounding and looking car!
19:32 that sound when Jay is getting in the car LOL... cracked me up
I like when Jay says, this is a timeless design, could be from right now, then immediately goes to the back and says....oh that iconic 60’s Japanese look!
Love the sound of that engine!
This car, through the tiny screen of my phone, gives me goosebumps and childlike daydreams. Thanks Jay!
Gotta say lenos a master host always dials the guest back to the real star of the show.....the car
We need more JDMs, Jay! Good job!
certainly!
That is such a pretty engine bay! Love the straight six - beautiful!
I love this car. Love the classic lines. The fact that it has some oomph under the hood makes it even more appealing. Want one.
Chris is a magnificent historian. Perfectly drawing questions from Jay. This was a wonderfully informative interview. Fantastic!
Don't forget that Skyline GT-R dominated Japanese Touring Car since, even makes 49 consecutive victory back to back until Mazda Savanna GT (RX-3 to most of the world) showed up and challenged the domination. Skyline did ended up winning it's 50th victory in 1972.
Ifan Ramadhana any muscle car from that time period would curb stomp that Datsun. My dads 440 GTX ran 11’s low 12’s with just race gas and slicks no way this could even do 13’s much less 12’s even if it was on slicks and race has itself.
Japanese cars can go round corners though! Hahaha!
In racing you kind of need to turn lmao
Japan has tight mountain roads while the U.S has mostly straight long roads. You can see why american's favored large engine's more than a nimble chassis and japan choose the opposite
Tammy Forbes don’t worry those tanks don’t corner 😂 keep it on the drag strip.. the only thing those things are good for lmao
The bonnet edge right above the left and right headlights is slightly different. Has anyone else noticed that?
it would be my guess it's a bad repair, the back panel looks like it's got a lot of filler in it or its warped from a small accident and wasn't repaired before repainting, the pinch weld on the driver's side sill is bent too, guess it's hard to have such a rare car in absolutely immaculate condition, as they weren't all that expensive for a long time, so it probably wasn't worth a concourse restoration when it was done.
@Allen S Bonnet. Yank!
@@Arcona Hood! Lobster back!
That’s just how many old cars are
I think at the time, mirrors weren't mandatory and they could choose either if they wanted one on both sides and where they wanted them on the car. Obviously now it's standardised but I think it's fairly common for cars of that age
What I love is that he doesn’t hate against any car, it shows with the amount of different cars he’s had on his show
Utterly gorgeous car. That front end is a work of art. If a modern car was built with this sort of styling, I'd snatch one up immediately. It looks tough and charming, like a business casual gangster with knuckle dusters in his pocket.
Much as I love the modern GTR, I'd step over one to get one of these.
Wow, handsome car. Love its clean, lean, low-key styling and layout.
Wow I can’t believe I’m seeing Jay drive this!! So happy! Let him drive all the skylines please!
Just saw the engine... got teary eyed a third time... just amazing... those Webers, awe man, those intakes... jeeeeez...
I absolutely love this, thank you Jay
Great car...!!! Had a 1970 Skyline 2000 GT, it was an awesome car... :-) Left it in Japan when I got transferred in '75...
You better get it back if you still can lol
7:26 "This is extremely rare" Jay immediately need to touch the car xD
i'm thankful for the opportunity to see and learn about this car because i will probably never see one on the street. i have seen one of the early smaller gtr's here recently, but i won't see this. now i know where it really all started for nissan performance.
Another great review from you again thanks for the video awesome viewing glad you do these a great way for us to see rare cars being driven
This car looks at least 20 years ahead of its times, it's absolutely modern.
I love the sound of the engine when he first started it.
This car is too beautiful. The interiors are perfection.
Excellent convo. Love this channel.
so rad!
This is the dream car that dream car's dream of.
NinjaRider777R so you dislike this car?
That was awesome!
@NinjaRider777R 4 door sports cars the best CTSV, M5, AMG63, chevy ss all nice cars
there is a 2 door variant, just so you know...
Thank you Jay for enlightening us on such a beautiful machine! I truly learned a lot more about one of my all time favorites 👍.
1969? this thing was ahead of its time, got to give it to Jay for showing fantastic cars from everywhere
Perfect, just watched mighty car mods finish their 240z build.
Invincible Extremes Muscle Cars Garage Moog and Marty should meet up Jay Leno on their next US trip!
It was an amazing build. It was maaad
They should let him drive the Subarute
mattsee45 they don't own it anymore, unfortunately. It was donated to the folks who owned the workshop that they got borrowed to work on and that helped them out. I wonder what they've made with it, btw.
raiden z how are they "destroying" it? By doing fun videos directed by them with entertaining and arguably tasteful content? Perhaps you prefer the "contribution" of commercial crap shows like the dudes from Gas Monkey Garage playing make pretend, those are surely the ones keeping anything alive, uh...
On the bottom line, I can't understand your hate towards a channel with a friendly and entertaining approach to things, who have always tried to make their videos with a sort of motivational and DIY vibe on them, if motivating people to get into the car scene and work on their own cars is killing it, then I don't know how could someone possibly contribute to keep it alive.
Well despite previous comments, Jay, I thought your guest, Chris Marion, was very knowledgeable and very much a true gentleman. Great video. I am from Australia and we have an affinity with early Japanese cars. The Skyline GTR is one of my favourites. I do prefer the coupe though. Great work from all involved, thanks yet again.
RoRo Knowledgeable? Pagini? LOL
Chris said that Prince purchased Nissan in 1966. Huh? Perhaps just a case of the nerves being on tv with Jay?
And nKnowledgeable except for the history of the brand. Nissan bought Prince, not the other way around. And no idea of the origin of the Skyline name.
Phillip Leeds he’s right, the origin of skyline name is debatable. Prince Motor Company never confirmed were the inspiration of the name came from.
As a New Zealander where we have more JDM stuff, Skylines especially second to only Japan it's cool seeing these vids but seriously error ridden.
13:45 When Chris opened the hood,
the sound Jay made that was pure sound from his heart.
I was thinking the same thing, it is the big brother to the 510. Faster and sounds so cool. Thanks Jay, excellent.
".. pull on it really hard, and I was like wow this is really neat!"
Yep, sounds about right.
One of the coolest cars ever made
This is an awesome car the engine sounds way ahead of its time
Is it just me or is this one of the best looking old cars ever?
Wow!! Nice. The original 240Z was a lot of fun. I had a 1994 Sentra SE-R and it was a great little car!
most people dont realize thats a $100,000 car right now
More like $150,000.
pfft nsx type r just sold for 1 million.....this is a coffee tin car
Wow I never would have thought that it was going for so much I mean just look at it it's so unassuming.
A 2000gt c10 is 50-80k. A real gtr is probably more like 250k or even more.
Art Vandelay Yeah right, keep dreaming.
Everything about this car is beyond awesome!
I like this guy Chris. He knows his stuff and isn't obnoxious
That engine Roar
Love it
Wow, i really like this car. I love how the clean and open the engine compartment is and how one could actually tinker with it. I also like how innocent looking it is, like Leno's tale of his Corenet.
Beautiful! Thanks Jay!!!
Regarding the Skyline name origin, it was named after the blue sky and white mountains of the Northern Alps that Shinichiro Sakurai (the father of the Skyline) saw while skiing in Shiga Kogen, Japan. I read this in an Australian motor magazine on the release of the C110 series Skyline where they interviewed Nissan's famous Shinichiro Sakurai.
Wow.. I've just developed a new crush.. What a beautiful car, and sounds great.. Never seen one before..
ANDY FLANAGAN I occasionally see them here in Japan , but they often look a little flashier than this one. Bright blues and greens etc.
one of the fun parts of living in Japan.
shizuokaBLUES
I'd suffer one in any colour my friend.. Certainly is one cool, classy motor..
Yeah, agreed, very cool and classy. The subtle sixties look.
ANDY FLANAGAN I'm more of a 2 door guy
2-doors are too mainstream though.
The 4-doors and wagons (yes they exist) are more unassuming and rarer.
absolutely love this car!!
12:05 I like how Jay interrupts him and he just keeps talking. 😄
The guy is very knowledgable, articulate, and well-spoken. My guess Jay felt a little insecure.
That engine sound is mesmerizing.
Love the sounds it makes!
Like Jay said, really timeless and unassuming/understated design. This is one of the nicest original (mostly original) examples I've seen and that engine just sounds great revving to red-line. I didn't know so few were made in Japan, it's a shame there aren't more surviving examples which is why this is pulling crazy money these days.
the sound on that motor is amazing
I love how Jay knows his stuff, matter the car.
One of my favorite all time 4 door cars, Japanese quality. Very cool!!!!!!!
Japanese quality? r u high or something lol
9:27 "Pigini Huayra" 😂
Jay doing the hakosuka justice. Great video on the heritage
He LOVES those mirrors. Every single JDM car he says it. Cracks me up, reminds me of my dad how he repeats himself like that.
Sikkest GTR imo! What I wouldn’t give for that car!!
I believe you mean “What I would give for that car”, wouldn’t implies you want things more than that car
That would be r34
Jack Vande polar, there's always that guy, you are that guy.
derk 11b his sentence literally was incorrect though, I most things slide, but that phrase annoys me due to its sheer stupidity
Let the man have some enthusiasm about a car he wishes he could own.
Take a shot every time he says McLaren or Nicely Done 🤣
It sounds glorious! Love the purity.
Thanks Jay! Fascinating Automobile.
Hard to believe that it's 49 years old.
Definitely. For 1969 it looks at least a decade ahead of its time in styling.
The Mad Gentleman I know right? Welcome to Japanese auto styling!
DOHC 4 valve engine .....in 1960....
I think that Jay is over 50 now ;)
Such rare beauty =)
Leno is a true car guy. Not particular about any country like a lot of people. But he likes all vehicles period. And that’s a true enthusiast
Thanks Jay fir sharing al this pretty and fun stuff cars. Much appriciated 😊
