R33 = ultimate rarity.

I'd even drive it slow.

I would like a boosted M3 for nice daily driver and I would go with the R33 or R34 GTR for a fun weekend car. But that is just me.

Yes I am VERY serious. I have a friend that is a registered importer, and another friend who can have the car legalized and registered in the united states. Both would cost about 6k maybe TOTAL + cost of car. And since i could probably find a skyline r34 gtr in Japan or other contries for around 30k-50k.. it would cost me tops maybe 55k.


As for the other person, they are 80grand for idiots who try n buy them here already legalized. The price goes out the roof once there on our grounds and legal.

I personally would go for the newest year Porsche turbo I could afford. I would do this more as a status symbol than performance, because I do realize that it is allot easier (cheaper) to go fast in an evo than in the older Porsches but I still want one.
