Bern,

I would say that the premium has more to do with the end specification than purely the fact it's a Nur. If you look at page one and carefully read the spec list you'll see that there is a massive investment gone into it.

Nevertheless a Nur probably attracts maybe 15K+ over an equivalent stock car, it's not just a Nur, it's a V-Spec II (which in themselves attracts a premium) and it's a 2002 model year and hence the very last of the breed, in fact it was the last Skyline you could buy from new.

The price is academic, of course it's only worth what someone is prepared to pay, I would say that this version will resist succumbing to market forces better than the regular models but time will tell.

If you were going to embark on tuning your own car to a similar spec, it would be far more economical to buy one that is done, (as anyone on here who has tuned their own to this degree will testify to) the fact this one has only done 3,500 miles on its Brand new Top Secret engine means it should have plenty of miles left in it yet.

Regards
Nito
