[edit]Text under the image of Nissan Skyline from 2 Fast 2 Furious is wrong. He never owned this car. 119.12.131.140 (talk) 18:48, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
- While Paul Walker did own a silver Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R from Motorex around the time, he did NOT own that particular car that was featured in 2 Fast 2 Furious. He instead borrowed the car from Motorex till his car was delivered to him.
- At the time, the car was owned by the technical advisor of 2 Fast 2 Furious, Craig Lieberman, and his testimony (as linked in here) explains everything about the car.

- Traveling between 150 km/h) upwards to top off the hill, the powerful engine rich the 185 km if was not going upwards now got wrong indication of 150 km wasn’t 150 km but 185 km 2A02:A46E:7C82:0:EC0E:73FF:B3A4:E264 (talk) 12:33, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
- This does NOT address my edit request at all.
- The caption on the 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GT-R's picture says "he later owned the car". No he did not.
- Craig Lieberman, the technical advisor of the first two Fast and Furious films, owned this particular Skyline before it changed hands with more than four other owners - Paul was not one of them.
- Yes, Paul Walker owned a Skyline, but it was in Sonic Silver, and it happened after the first Fast and Furious movie came to exist. Not after the second movie hit the theatres.
- This is for all the information associated with the car featured in the 2 Fast 2 Furious film:

Girlfriend
[edit]Whilst there do appear to be reliable sources that he started dating his girlfriend when she was aged 16, I have removed the other sections of this talkpage that suggested other issues without any sources. Black Kite (talk) 22:21, 9 January 2026 (UTC)
Electronic stability control
[edit]It's worth noting that the Porsche Carrera GT doesn't actually have a ESP, and the driver must rely solely on their own skill. This means that loss of control isn't just due to speed and aging tires, but also due to the lack of skid control. ~2026-87955-6 (talk) 21:08, 9 February 2026 (UTC)

delete " Walker was in a relationship with Jasmine Pilchard-Gosnell, whom he started dating when she was 16 and he was 33.[41][42][43] He was not in a relationship with her, she was in a relationship with Travis Turpin, whom she got engaged to in June of 2014, he also did not date her at the age of 16.
delete He also posthumously received a star on Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2023.[34] you can look on the website and search for his name on the Hollywood Star website. He is not there. I looked it up before i did this edit. BuckeyeChick73 (talk) 02:02, 14 April 2026 (UTC)
- First request:
Not done. There are multiple sources that verify this claim, we can only go by what they say. - Second request:
Not done for now. This was also reported on by multiple sources, but you're correct in saying that this is not in the official listing of honorees. I've marked this as dubious so that it can be discussed and updated accordingly. Is it possible that this was slated to take place but never happened, the nomination expired, or the official site simply doesn't have the correct info? I'll note that the Variety source used as a source for this reference makes a claim to Walker only in the title of their article, and not in the body. Umby 🌕🐶 (talk) 02:56, 14 April 2026 (UTC)
- Second request now
Partly done, I've given this a copyedit to reflect that this was a posthumous nomination, given that no sources that I've found have stated this to have occurred. Umby 🌕🐶 (talk) 03:08, 14 April 2026 (UTC)

pedophilia
[edit]this article seems to just brush past the fact that he was 33 dating a 16 year old. that's disgusting ~2026-26623-73 (talk) 07:12, 2 May 2026 (UTC)
- @~2026-26623-73 Which is completely legal in many countries. Muricans are really really weird. ~2026-32980-13 (talk) 21:45, 22 July 2026 (UTC)
