This is why I like putting together the HS30 registry / gallery / albums because they help us out together the gaps and sometimes track down missing cars. It would be very satisfying to find where HS30 00003 is for example.. JDM-TOY and gilltech 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The M-spec NUR (Silver car) may not have sold. Sometimes ads get taken down because they become stale after a while and so sometimes they resurface or finance falls over etc.. so just because it's placed on hold doesn't mean it's actually sold. With regard to GTRs I've noticed quite a few cars listed have had recent price drops. Sydney lockdown and other states etc.. must be having some kind of impact on people's finances and without JobKeeper/JobSeeker and early access to Super like last year I'd say stimulus money is somewhat running dry... However access to home equity to buy shiny things may still be a thing for some... I must admit I contemplated it momentarily, but decided perhaps not a good idea. I feel R34 prices may have topped out for a while , but I thought that about house prices 10 years ago.. egg on my face. gilltech and JDM-TOY 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators gav240z Posted July 13, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 13, 2021 For some reason R34 GTRs are looking well priced. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-57804089 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The emissions from enthusiast cars only would be nothing. So I imagine only a few companies will still bother manufacturing it. Wonder what the $/Litre cost will be... on another note.
