The R34 Skyline GT-R, the predecessor to the current 2020 Nissan GT-R, is one of the most iconic cars to ever come out of Japan. We can't see why anyone would want to mess with such a legendary formula but that's exactly what Instagram rending artist Khyzyl Saleem has done. With inspiration from a popular YouTube series, Saleem has envisioned what the R34 GT-R would look like with pop-up headlights.
Just looking at the rendering, replacing the standard headlights with pop-ups has dramatically altered the GT-R's iconic looks. The instantly recognizable front end now looks just a bit off. Don't get us wrong, we love cars with pop-up headlights and we wish that modern vehicles could still have them today. But seeing the R34 GT-R, a car with such an iconic face, wearing pop-ups doesn't sit right. The R34 Skyline had such a simple yet aggressive design but with pop-ups, the car looks like it is trying too hard to appear angry.
