Drivers who have deep pockets and an affinity for the "Fast & Furious" franchise may have their eyes set on one current sale. A German owner is selling a Nissan Skyline GT-R used in the series' fourth installment, made famous thanks to the driving of the film's stars – including Paul Walker. 

While this vehicle would have commanded a big price tag anyway, its value skyrocketed following Walker's untimely death. As one of the stars of the "Fast & Furious" franchise, Walker was a mainstay in the films and even drove this Skyline GT-R in the film. In the wake of his death, the asking price for the vehicle tripled to $1.4 million. Its previous price tag was about $413,000, according to Yahoo Autos. 

The Nissan Skyline GT-R took quite an unusual route to its current home. It was manufactured in Japan, and unlike other Nissan models, it was supposed to stay in its home country due to U.S. regulations on imports. Filmmakers managed to get this GT-R, along with seven other models, to the country because of a loophole in the law that allowed them to finish the manufacturing process on American soil. 

Although the other seven vehicles were destroyed in the filming of the movie, this Nissan vehicle remained. It was impounded in 2009 in response to the import laws, but it eventually found its way to the German owner currently selling it.
