Looking at their website, $23k seems pretty steep for a GTR with almost 100,000 miles on it. The R32 usually goes for $10-$20k FOB depending on condition.

Prices jumped as soon as these things were able to be registered in the US. Hence the bump.

Yeah, everyone freaked out about the GT-R, but I was wondering if I was the only one that read he was getting two cars.

He needs to live out everyone's Fast and the Furious fantasies and put a fart blaster and a terrible body kit on it.
And some underglow. And NOS.
On a serious note, he picked a pretty dumb time to buy one of these. Soon people are going to start importing a fuck-bucket of them and the price will not be stable at all.
He should have imported a kei car or something a bit less playstation. I'm thinking a classic French car.

Go to carsales.com.au
Buy all the cheap R32-R33 Skylines.
Ship to the US and sell.
Profit?

He gave a hint in that he said the GTR would be in the garage with the Rover on the street. So, the 2nd car has to be worth less than the GTR.
Maybe my suggestion of a classic VW bus isn't totally out of the running yet?!

I'm pretty sure he did it to document the process.

I'm secretly hoping that the second car is a Lancia Trevi Volumex.

Hopefully this means I'll be able to pick up a second-hand RB26DETT cheaply by the time I get my S30 project underway.

They tend to pick fairly rust free, tip-top examples. Those Trueno's they sold are still kinda crazy high though. Been in talks with them to hunt down a good but not great (i.e. relatively afforable) C10 Skyline.

If you want a sedan, there's one for $50k up right now

Here it is. Wish it wasn't as stickerd, but it's worth it if as clean and stock as it looks.

And the group. Some pretty good stuff comes through there.

And one more. An C210, I believe. The page has a ton of R32s, a few R33s, some R34s, and Supras mostly.
