How much should I ask for my Nissan Skyline?
It is right in the middle of the price guide for that model, and with its relatively low kilometres and history of regular servicing it would seem a fair price.

Why are so many Nissan Skylines being sold for under $10,000?
It’s against the law to tamper with an odometer, but I’m sure it does go on. If you’re going to buy a car like this you need to have it thoroughly checked by a mechanic who knows them well. An experienced mechanic should be able to tell if a car’s odometer doesn’t appear correct.

2000 Skyline a good buy?
Don't be fooled into thinking you're buying rocketship like the turbo model, the non-turbo 25GT isn't quick. But it does stop and handle well, and it's not a bad car to learn on if you're a rookie driver. Mechanically they're a solid car, well engineered, and reliable. It's important to find a car that hasn't been thrashed almost to death by a young driver already.

Nissan Skyline on E85
There are two ways of setting your car up to run on e85. One, the cheaper one, sees it tuned to run on e85 exclusively, in which case I don't believe it would actually run on 98-octane. The other, more expensive one is to fit a flex-fuel system, which is able to detect what fuel is being used and adjust the tuning accordingly to run on either fuel. The latter system requires the use of a sensor, the same used by GM in its flex-fuel cars, and an ECM to control it. That your car will run on 98-octane fuel leads me to believe that it could be fitted with a flex-fuel system. If it is there is no danger in running your car on either fuel. To check take it to a mechanic with experience in Skylines and they should be able to tell you what has been fitted to your car.
