Especially now that prices of some of the R34'S are higher than a brand new R35, insanity I think, . But who am I to talk 😂 I bought an R34 and R32 at the same time. I don't see prices leveling off either. Once R34'S are allowed legally into the USA, I'm betting prices go north even higher!Anybody fancying buying one should do as soon as possible, the prices will keep going north at a good pace for a while.
Holy Hell, that's outrageous!!! I didn't pay that much, but close . And mine came out of Japan! Are these prices ever going to level off or are they just going to rocket out of range of the " true Skyline enthusiastic owners" who love these cars , and understand them?!!Bringatrailer has a Canadian MNP r34 listing timed to absolute pricing perfection with F&F movie and Adam LZ etc.
It is already at 250k USD with 9 days to go.
The train has well and truly left the station on that - the moment used 20 year old Nissans starting changing hands for double (what is it now, 5x?) their original asking price when new.or are they just going to rocket out of range ..
The pricing as absurd, for what that car will sell for you could buy an actual raced Formula 1 carBringatrailer has a Canadian MNP r34 listing timed to absolute pricing perfection with F&F movie and Adam LZ etc.

Some R34'S in Japan are going for a fair bit too! $ 16million JPY. ( 183k ) . I hate to say.it but I've paid a King's ransom for my R32 and R34, both from.a private seller in Japan. And yes I will be looking and buying other Skylines, I want to preserve these ICONS of the motorsport. I've loved these car's since I was living in Japan in the late 60's , and then again from late 80's to early 2000's. I got to know them first hand, and driven most Skyline models made. Now I'm in the position to start my collection, unfortunately prices are insane for some models, but deals are out there!
For anyone wants to follow the one on Bring a Trailer currently at 251k USD

Bid for the chance to own a Midnight Purple II 1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec at auction with Bring a Trailer, the home of the best vintage and classic cars online. Lot #49,834.bringatrailer.com
Adam LZ is such a crybaby though. Started crying when Sean Morris stated that his R34 is illegal in the US, which is true. Don’t know why people watch videos of people filming their lives.Bringatrailer has a Canadian MNP r34 listing timed to absolute pricing perfection with F&F movie and Adam LZ etc.

Some people just have too much money to burn haha. Americans almost dont have a choice in paying the prices sometimes since it seems we are the last country able to snag these JDM or other Icons that we would love to drive. Plenty of Aussies are buying R34s for 100K+ but im sure some will probably try to turn and sell to US in a few years. Vspec Performance bought a Mspec from Garage Defend i believe some time ago for 150k then sent it to Omori Factory for a refresh/rebuild.View attachment 268324
As much as I love Americans, a large population of them are so gullible for buying things that are overpriced.

You can still snag a R34 but it may not be a GTR. You can score GTTs for 30k still but most are already in the 40k+ range here in Japan or the R34 4wd 4 door for a bit less if you fancy the 4 door look. Buy now and store to have for later in the states because i bet the R34 GTTs will probably be selling as much if not more than R33 GTRs once they hit the States since they are already at R32 GTR pricing. Same with the S15 Spec Rs grab now and store cause probably once US time they will be in the 40ks+ (some already are). They are in the High 20ks to 30ks already in Japan. Probably a bit cheaper if you go through an AH Those price ranges are what is on the Japanese Goo Net site on Dealer lots.I have given up ever thinking about owning a R34 at these prices. I'm trying to front run 1999 cars by trying to get my hands on a clean S15 Spec R right now.... we need to follow Canada and have the rule be 15 years and not 25.

I think as well the prices will level off but at what point? few years after 2025(1999) or few years after 2028(2002) when the last production year of the BNR34s were produced and will those prices continue to climb since fewer were produced in 2002. At the same time i can almost see the prices not leveling off anytime soon since 11.5k are produced and you probably have about 1 million rich folk world wide with money to burn on one of these machines.I do think prices will level off a bit once easy money is gone and rates go higher. Maybe not for the BNR34 or low mileage classics but the stupid prices has to end some time for everything else... or I will continue to be wrong.
I kicked myself on missing the cheaper prices on BNR32s and should have listened to one buddy on buying and storing the BNR34 over 2 years ago.
Dang it jump about 11k in 24 hours it seems lol, i wonder how crazy the betting is going to get once its down to the last 5 hours. After this listing im sure you will be correct for more MNP's popping up for the big pay out cause the person who lost at 265k will want it lol and this is just a MNP not even a Vspec 2 Nur or MJ M spec Nur. I think those are already selling after 250K in Japan, I wonder what the prices of those will fetch once US legal 600K?? lol That would make the Z Tune a Million dollar car if one were to ever pop up for sale.$261k usd now - that's 350k aud and 188k ukp and 28m yen I think that is quite a lot higher than the going prices in australia, UK and Japan. There are now two pretty average MNPs hoping for payday, listed on Australian carsales.
You can expect to see a few MNP auctions appearing as a followup to try to capture this unrealistic benchmark.
