Hardcore U.S. motorheads have been trying to import the Nissan Skyline ever since the late '80s, when it beat the Porsche 959 at Germany's Nurburgring proving grounds in the wet. But while the car has been available in Australia and Europe, Nissan never saw fit to send it Stateside.
Here's a roundup of ten interesting, different, or plain ol' weird cars that never made their way across the Pacific, from the 1950's-Italian-esque Figaro to the unabashedly 1980's-flashy Sera, to yes, the fabled Skyline.

Nice choice with the image. You chose my favorite car. The Blackbird. More information on this particular model can be found here: http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/features/0105scc_r34skyline/
I was one of the lucky ones to ride in a R32 stateside when one of the importers were touring it around. Its a shame that it was all a bust in the end
