Half of me said WTF?! while the other half of me said Brilliant!

Paul Newman sticker
Yes, the Skyline R30 is terrific!

I found the sticker here at zeki's blog @ minkara. Another four stickers can be found there as well!

I read the news yesterday and Japanese Nostalgic Car blogged about this as well: Paul Newman passed away.

Apart from many good movies he made he was also quite close to Nissan: he raced several Datsuns during the 60s and 70s and in the early 80s he even got a special edition Nissan Skyline R30 with his name on it (rebadged GT-EX) and featured the ads for them:

Another small detail: the last Skyline R30 in the ads features the Plasma FJ engine which I blogged about in May this year:

Therefore it should be a Skyline RS in the ad.

I think there was no greater tribute in his life than this. ;)
