Like Opel Ascona B a modest family car with 100hp and rear wheel dive made from mid 1970 to early 1980 now cost 10.000 to 40.000 $. I bought one in 2002 for myself for 400$ but sadly damaged it 1 year later and it was scrapped because repair it did cost more then I paid for it... If Only I had know it would be 50 to 100 times more expensive now. This family car now cost more then a good Porche 911.

[@lalito._.01]

As a turbo sc300 owner i figured id drop some knowledge for anyone interested on buying one. #1. The sc300 chassis was used to make the supra. This means the cars are almost identical, the only difference is wheelbase length. The majority of aftermarket parts will fit both cars. #2. There are 2 types of N/A 2jz that came in this car. One with VVTI and one without. The NON VVTI 2jz has the exact same internals as the turbo engine with the only difference being higher compression pistons. The VVTI version is alot weaker with skinny rods and cant take alot of boost. If you want to make big power you want the NON VVTI 2JZ. Mine is currently making 550whp with nothing done to the engine other that head studs and a factory 2jzgte head gasket. #3. These cars came with a manual transmission (w58) from 92-97 but are very rare and very weak. If you want a manual your best bet is to buy an adapter kit and use a cd009, t56, or various others. #4. They are very reliable and easy to work and learn on. As long as you do basic maintenance this car will happily take from point a to b #5. Theres a v8 version of this car called the sc400 that came with the legendary 1UZ. These engine are known to have run for a million miles with no issues. These v8 also love boost but aftermarket support is not as stong compared to the 2jz. If you have any questions feel free to reply and ill do my best to get back to you. I love these cars and like helping people out with them.

Cool video! Hopefully it doesn't have the opposite effect on some of these. Also, to add to your clarification in the video, the Accord didn't share an engine with the NSX. It was a completely different family of engines. The NSX used the C30A or C32B V6 with DOHC and VTEC. The V6 in the Accord is a J-series that succeeds the C-series and is still used in most V6 equipped Honda's today.

[@DerpyAngel09]

glad someone else noticed this and not just me. also, the J30 is a square engine (86mmx86mm) and the C30 is an over-square design (90mmx78mm).

Mk3 Supra, pop up headlights, hatchback, not too boxy with subtle curves. Optional 1JZ from Japan, 2JZ swaps make it ideal badass performer

[@HeliRy]

Had a Del Sol for a number of years when they first came out. Bone stock with the smaller engine and the auto transmission. It certainly didn’t win any races, but it was an absolute blast none the less.

[@cherno4319]

i have a mazda 323 glx... just fixed the problems and made it beautiful riding with homies feels good

[@Interceptor810]

Mazda 3 hatch are pretty good too Im glad you mentioned the Accord Coupe...Ive always mentioned that they are very nice and powerful

[@michaelmaniachanical7918]

Glad to see my favorite JDM car makes this list (300ZX).

[@M0stlyH3lpful]

Had a 2003 accord v6 coupe in my youth! Factory Performance Package body kit! It was the best we used to eat up cars in the day!

[@Mattalot97]

I was so happy to see the Galant right off the bat. I've owned my 98 Legnum VR4 for 6 years now. The Legnum is just the wagon version the Galant. Absolute weapon and a lot of parts are swappable with Evo's. I've got a Evo transfer case, Evo Mechanical LSD, brembos and much more. Definitely more than enough power for the street hahaha.

[@a.e.i.o.u2951]

unreal that very same lexus SC300 you posted is now above 10k

[@RelaxationStation777]

There is a HUGE DIFFERENCE between A 2jzge and a 2jzgte like different compression ratios and forged rods the Na has naturally higher compression and the GTE Lower Compression Ratio to push boost safely. The NA also comes in the Toyota Altezza aka the Lexus is300.

[@chainsawlord]

FC RX-7 is underrated as well. Everyone talks about the FD not realizing the 2nd Gen FC has a better transmission and same motor... and the Pandem kit makes it FIRE

[@Stargun-vj1uh]

I own a Honda Del from 1995, and I paid $6,500. Only 154,000 on the clock, complete maintenance record, and the biggest issues are that the clearcoat was failing, and by this point the throwout bearing is going and the speedo doesn't work. That's it. Some truck backed into it and damaged the hood, but that's not that big a deal overall. Its not as fun as my Miata was, but I like the Del Sol.

[@AFellowDoktuh]

My little brother had a 1998 Nissan 300zx NA 6 Speed, and he'd walk all over the Hondas with it in high school. I drove an old 1992 S10 so no surprise which car we drove to school in.

[@JediMaul]

The reason why the 300z is not overrated bc not a lot of ppl want to work on it cause of how tight it is lol.

[@dontsinkids8758]

Extra points for the Z31, gotta be my favorite 80s car long

[@KylesMBandCC1]

I love the 300zx because they cool because I saw a cool one with a body kit and then saw one he reved it and sound good as

[@michaeldotson767]

I love my Z31. I even overlooked it till I accidentally bought one drunk. Now my favorite car to drive

[@espur8249]

Great video man. The sc300 was no where in my mind and now you got me looking on marketplace lmao

[@Audiojack_]

Funny, I've seen that exact red widebody Galant in person once when it drove past me on the highway in Finland. Also as a JZZ30 Soarer owner I can appreciate the top listing.

[@htmIdag]

the 300zx is a beautiful car,i whould have a z31 i dont complain,but man that 300zx is just a hidden gem

[@ICANTSLEEP.]

This video is literally my whole list of cars I want. Mans bouta make it impossible 💀

[@Blakek.]

#3... i happened to be in hs when the Del Sol came out. Spending many hrs in turbo and NO2 CRXs. When they killed the CRX and replaced it with the CRX/Miata love child, many were HIGHLY disappointed.

[@fastspree9202]

just bought a del sol and and i love it! thank god i bought it before this video came out

[@rahtsnake144]

my dad had a manual trans, blue Galant when I was a kid. i miss that thing.

[@slimtim5575]

The main reason sc300 prices are fairly reasonably priced is because it's so rare to find a factory USDM manual. Every Gen Z car guy has been fed that in order to be cool it has to be manual, but since this car is almost always automatic, it hasn't been majorly taxed yet. The sc300 and z32 were the other cars I was looking at before picking up my rx8 and I still hope to try them out one day. Great list!

[@MidnightGreen4649]

It's mainly an American thing, and yeah the younger generation has this issue. I never really noticed it much until 2015 or so, when all things retro were cool. I think it also has to do with being rebellious as the majority of us are not into cars, to the point where new drivers are a dying breed, and many people even among the millenials are looking forward to an EV/self-driving future. The Rx-8 is a great car if maintained right. I can't stand people saying it's trash because it's just not. Top Gear loved it when it came out, and like all unique cars, it's not stood up to the test of time because it's using unique tech in the form of a rotary.

[@madsjakobsen9824]

Just bought a honda prelude for around 9-10k i usd, its my first car and i absoultely love the look on it. I got the 2.2 vti version and its got plenty power for a first car and i cant wait to give it some mods to personalize it

[@farmonious420]

Great vid. I drive a Mazdaspeed 6. It's a WRX for adults. 300HP (with a few bolt ons) AWD, turbo inline 4, with a six speed. No clout no one cares and only mazda fans even notice it. Keep up the great content. Stay Happy and Healthy.

[@scottjs5207]

This is why I appreciate Ford Falcons. Frick all about never increasing prices, and you can get parts for them since they share parts bins with 64-66 Mustangs.

[@minipeople4x4]

Galant is a seriously underrated car it was really special, had great memories from childhood of my mom vr4 89
