[@joshbechaistron791]

Its absolutely not worth 300 grand, but in my opinion, no car is worth that price...you could buy a really nice house for that kind of cost. Unfortunately some moron, especially here in the states, would pay that and because of that, prices will stay in the stratosphere on these cars for the foreseeable future...I'll keep my sw20, I'm good lol

The Skyline and Skyline GT-R cars (R32,R33,R34, and R35 are my #1 favorite JDM cars. That being said, I agree the prices for some of the models are way, way over bloated!!!! I think your assessment of the values is spot on!!!!!!!

[@bingoberra18]

The R34 GTR is a $50-60k car all things considered

[@jdmglobalwarehouse]

That's a reasonable price and they were consistently around that mark until just a few years ago 😥. People have to remember you still have to spend a fair bit to bring out their potential.

[@jordang1408]

R34 GTR has been one of my fav cars to drool over from when I was a little Fast & Furious fan. I also know this car can be built for so many different applications. In my opinion, I just don’t see $300,000 being worth it when I step back and see what else is available in that price range. With that said, I’d probably still buy one if I had that type of money hanging around 😂

It cost 300k, 😮. I thought it was around 40-100k. My goodness. 😭😭😭

[@Lurkindork]

@@j.rjunior5584 90k+ is the price range for a standard 34 gtr. Rarer models like the mspec and vspec go for a higher price. Imo 50-100k is what the 34 gtrs are only worth after all these came from a cheaper poor mans segment called the “skyline”.

[@Turdsmear]

Just wait for all the rich clout chasers to get bored of it so we real enthusiasts can afford one later, it's a shame my all-time dream car is just out of my grasp smh.

[@Lurkindork]

@@Turdsmear imo the 33 and the 32 gtr could lose all the recognition when the 34 gtr is officially legal in the states and within 3/4 years people will get tired from getting into a meet and realizing that 90% of the cars are 34 skylines and 70% of em having big single turbos on either an rb25/26/28/30. Atleast then i hope the true enthusiasts start asking lower prices instead of giving these collectors a thinking that we the enthusiasts will buy it nomatter what the price is. all the negotiating could result the gtr getting lower in price. atleast thats what i hope.but the problem is someone should that hard negotiate and and get one for lower prices, once that happens its more likely that many more will start to follow the same until these gtrs stay in a reasonable price. I hope all of our dreams will come true one day.

I bought my R34 GTR V-Spec earlier this year. With some nice nismo & hks Parts installed already and around 96k km on the clock. Very nice Condition, no Rust, very clean Interior and very good overall Condition of the car. I paid about 140k € for the Car including Tax, Duty and Shipping to Germany. Duty & Tax to import the Car to germany are about 30% on top of the Car-Price. Its very Expensive yes, but It was always my dreamcar and I know the cars will keep on rising in price for the next years. I don't want to sell it, but I KNOW it will be worth more from year to year, so I know that I'm not burning money here. If you buy a new Sportcar for 100k € it takes maybe 4-5 Years and you lost already 25-35% regarding the price when you want to sell it. I wish I would have had the money years ago to buy the R34 cheaper, but back then it was not possible for me. This year was the last year in my opinion where I had to decide, do it now or never be able to do it again.

Small volume produced (~11,500 and probably only 9,000 left). Decades of development in the aftermarket. Nissan/Nismo are still showing support for years to come (Heritage program and factory restorations). With all that considered, I'd argue its worth 100k USD all day depending on condition. The bottom line is that people seem to have infinite money these days and they're willing to pay whatever it takes.

Fast forward to me in my teens and seeing these cars go for 70-90k I knew it would be a stretch but I started aiming for one... 2 years later when I had the money they were 160k+ 😅 so there went that dream. I'm now in my early twenties and have a RS3 8v sedan (my awd itch) and a 180sx type x with a rb28 (the sound) maybe one day I'll own a R34 but the price here in Aus just keeps climbing, and honestly I'm happy for the owners that bought in early but with the high prices I'm not sure if they're worth it, but you know now they'll be looked after because they've hit that collectors mark and no one will wanna crash or even mod at this point a 300-400k car.

Like most classics cars you don't buy them and compare them to modern supercars. Are classic porches worth more than new ones? Is a F40 worth more than a modern supercar? Is a McLaren F1 worth 40+M. like sammit said, it just people without money being salty. I want one of these cars and I admire that they're such a highly regarded collectable. You don't buy these cars for that reason, you buy them because of what they are, what they represented and the experience. It isn't always about going fast. Homologation vehicles with real race pedigree that I'd happy cruise at 3k rrpm listening to that sweet RB, and enough kick back when throttle is applied - which can easily be built on. And it looks just AMAZING. Also this thing doesn't cost 2k for an oil change hahaha. Hopefully one day I can sell my gtt for a gtr.

[@kolapodasilva5838]

Short answer, yes since there are many people willing to pay those prices. Longer answer, maybe? I think there's a lot that determines a car's value. Whether it's reasonable or not, the car community assigns value or worth to not only the car, but also the owner of a vehicle. Show up to cars and coffee in a super clean Civic or Golf GTI, you get some head nods and a few thumbs up. Show up in a GTR or Supra in almost any condition? People walk up to you, start conversations, follow you on IG, photographers want to shoot your car, etc. If you need that type of exposure for a business or KZbin, then the car may gain you access or influence to grow business that other cars won't. Could definitely be worth 300k in that situation. But from a driving perspective? It's a tough argument to say that the GTR driving experience alone (how the car feels, sounds, etc) is so amazing that it is worth 300k today. Never driven one, but I have a 33 GTR, so presumably similar.

For a low mileage unmolested R34 GTR, you are looking at around $200,000-300,000+ and still having to wait a few more years to even import it into the US. You can spend the same amount of money on a brand new Porsche 911 GT3 or even GT2 RS. The Porsche is faster and more agile than the R34 GTR will ever be plus it's significantly more comfortable to drive. Also, part availability for the R34 GTR is really expensive and very limited. I don't mean performance parts either, but try needing to replace a windshield/window, any interior pieces, or even a window motor. Stuff like that is extremely hard to find which makes the car unappealing for the person that wants to import one and drive it often. The car is just too old and because it was never in the US market, it's a terrible buying decision unless you really are a collector which means the cars will be garage kept and rarely driven.

Seriously, there is no such thing as over- or underrated when it comes to car prices if they sell. The cars are worth what people are willing to pay. A used car price is not related to the cars power, performance, luxury or whatever. It´s related to how much it fulfills the needs of the owner. I personally would take a R34 GTR over any Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini or something similar in a heartbeat so I would also accordingly pay more money for it. If you think the car is not worth the money and that you get more bang for your bucks from a Ferrari 812, Viper ACR, Hurracan STO or whatever... well, than the R34 GTR is just not the car for you. Just because you want something to be cheaper doesn´t mean it´s not worth the money, it´s just not worth the money for you. And if we start to considering whether the driving experience is worth it... well than what´s about a SL300, E30 M3 or a Ferrari 250 GTO? Are their drivingexperience worth the money? Also regarding the statement "They made alot of these", well if you add all ever produced R34 GTRs, Supra MKIVs and first gen Honda NSXs your get fairly close to the production numbers of the E46 M3 and even those are going up in prices dramatically and I bet there are more people actually wanting a R34 GTR than those wanting a E46 M3.

[@rikidozan93]

Production numbers matter to collectors, everyone knows that. What people have a tough time with, I think is that now that it also matters with Japanese sports cars, and people around the world have opened up to it, and since this is something that's a more recent phenomenon, some people must feel like its ridiculous. I think it's just that we've been spoiled by low priced cars from Japan in North America for decades, and so now that the demand is driving the prices ever higher on certain models, most people are in a state of shock.

Loved the r34 ever since I was a child, still to this day it’s one of the best looking cars I’ve seen, besides supercars of course. That being said, this car is not worth 300k, 80k at most, this car is decades old with 90’s technology in it, you can get SOO many better options within that price range. Blame the rich pricks buying this car and storing them until they become legal to sell them at Ferrari prices, you can also blame the middle schoolers hyping this car up to be the best car out there. To be able to afford this car you need Six-Figure income, not only in buying it, but keeping it maintained. This car belongs to the rich man now, instead of the JDM fans who want to drive this car to the fullest, and don’t see this machine as an investment.

[@devonr7497]

Hopefully this gets read and I didn't waste my time :P The GTR's have turned into a investors car and are now just primarily bought by investors. As investors you look at the R34 GTR as the goat of the JDM industry and the LAST true JDM car in the entire JDM industry, so there will never be a better JDM car or even anymore true JDM cars in general, and there already 20+ years old/a dying bread sadly. (It's not like the muscle car industry etc that has been since the 60's and will never end, the true JDM cars were around for only just over 20 years and it died 20 years ago and will never return again) The next biggest factor is that they are very rare, you don't look at it like there is 11k total of all years and models of R34 GTR, you look at the cars individually in which there were: 1/4200 V spec 1, 1/2700 Series 1, 1/1850 Vspec 2, and 1/1250 Series 2, Then the rest of the other few models are from 1/718 to as low as 1/5. Also what makes the cars so expensive is when they are very low mileage which the mileage is extremely important in valuing the car, you can get a V spec 1 with 250k km in proper condition for $100k USD, or you can get one with 1k km for $300k in which there are probably only a handful at that low of mileage I.e a JDM unicorn basically.

That's what I did haha. Although there is a massive gap in capability/quality and tech as well. Yes, the GTT had four wheel steering and a few other clever bits on the RB25 NEO that the RB26 doesn't have, but the GTR deserves a large gap in value in my opinion for everything else.. $150k difference though? Not in my books.

[@BigBoyz33]

No way in hell it should be over 50k. Its ridiculous how high the prices have gotten

[@zerotolerance3560]

200k???? I was offered one for 50k early this yr. It's a mass produced car and you can actually see them in japanese junkyards and they're not exotics. They simply gained traction because of gran turismo game and the fast&furious movies.

[@nashidaperv2351]

Ugh i hate that i was so young when these cars were so cheap. Im 18 now and am going to be fighting an uphill battle to.get these cars😔

[@junkwasp1208]

I’m super upset that the prices are what they are but these cars are only going one way and you need to get In to it if it isn’t too late

[@coopacd5710]

Bro the cheapest one I can find in Australia is $197,000 which if I had the money........ I would probably consider it considering it’s my favourite car on this earth

Shit box

[@coopacd5710]

@@tanthaman I disagree

[@mperformance3502]

Lol you can buy a used 720s plus a used R8 for $300k.

[@blueprintjdm]

That is not a high production number. They are actually rare when put into comparison of other JDM legends. That is 1/4 the number of R32 GTRs produced

[@Birmingham_racing]

R34 gtr has always been a dream car but not for that price

[@freshjive818]

It was designed to be the affordable fast car, cheaper than its european rivals I'm just glad in the UK at least we had a long period of affordable JDM classics now they just arent worth it.

[@ADVelez]

I have given this video a “Like” but I can’t stand the fact that “those guys” Charles is referring to have ruined the R34 for most of us. I get it Supply and Demand, free market, and so on. I still don’t like it that a car that should be around $50-60k has been artificially hyped up because there is money to spend at large. R34s have reached exotic car territories when it was never meant to be that. Sucks because by the time they are legal stateside I’ll never be able to buy one = dream crushed 😫

[@CHUDHUCKER]

This is why I'm holding on to my 95 FD.

[@tabes10]

You also have to consider how old are the hoses,parts etc etc that need to be replaced. For that money a r35 is a better deal.

[@SicSemperBeats]

Thats not the mindset anyone has when buying a 90's jdm car. If you have a problem replacing hoses then you probably don't need a r35 either lol

[@johnjacob688]

Same could be said for any old car and yet people are still buying them. I also agree with Sic Semper. lol

[@lesdirecteur]

Only real JDM enthusiasts doesn’t care about the price cause every single skyline model starting from hako it was ultimate machine in JDM family (even R50) … everyone in this world want skyline if all they can afford it’s not special anymore

[@pablog6487]

300K.... ummm NOPE. I don't even have to watch the video to reach that conclusion. And I love that car.

[@johnjacob688]

With mods no less.

[@alexmilne7]

Hell nah that shit should be worth 40k

[@DragonSeven777]

Champagne bubbles ;-)

[@Superdimensional]

If you’re paying more for one of these than a brand new r35, you’re not too bright.

[@LordLoMR2]

They’re nice, but for that money I’d rather get an exotic car like a lamborghini or Ferrari. Lol

[@garagelifestyle]

People buy Picasso for millions and Chanel bags for 10s of thousands of dollars... The question isn't what you or anyone else thinks it is worth because that is biased to circumstances. The market figures out its own price.. a better question would be of you had 5million dollars would you pay 300k+ for a r34. And fuck yeah I would, so would all the people saying ITS WOrtH 60k MaXxx. 300k is a drop in the ocean to the amount of money on the world. This is an international car. Good quality ones are limited af. 1300 f40s and 1800 v spec ii's. Yes mate they're rare. 10k production is very very limited. 1k examples to each major country, half.of which aren't collectable grade.

[@38tech]

Legit, no fucking way im paying more than my house for an r34. Lol

[@uptownsamcv]

for $300,000 you can get something way better and new! the R34 always looked ugly to me, R33 looks way better in my opinion.

[@meejinhuang]

Too expensive. Buy a R35 instead.

[@marianomartinez1947]

I understand that godzilla is a master piece for a jdm collector but not for 300k dls in that situation is better buy a nismo r36 just for the price

[@AkagiRedSun]

That’s a supercar price range and you get more performance and the looks with that money with new cars. I rather get used R35 for 1/3 of the money

[@Nycitybx16]

What website you use to get a r34

[@pmodd]

It's just hype and collector's pricing. I've driven an R34GTT and it's nothing special, with the GTR being the same chassis/interior with AWD. You do not get a comparable feeling of quality in the interior as even the average modem family car. Not a fan of the seating position compared to other sports cars of the time, for I stance Silvias, and the boot isn't very spacious. I liked the steering rack though; it turned very smooth and the low end torque made it quite pleasant to drive around town. Obviously the RB sounds great on boost, so it had that going for it too.

[@stacked911]

What auction website is that? Thx!

[@Zonda1996]

It used to be an affordable drivers car you could easily modify, now it’s a joke. Actual enthusiasts are being priced out of ownership so corporate fatcats can stow them away in garages, never to be driven. Kinda disgraceful really, but with so few being produced to begin with the price hike was inevitable. Bring me back to the mid 2000s I’ll buy 3 lmao

[@whatislife1111]

Is legend, but Skyline common problem is rust, not worth it, but no choice the price is already rocket high

[@stinger.0]

Love the R34 GTR but it is definitely not worth 100k+

[@J.V.100Proof]

R32 and R34s definitely overrated. If i was given the choice to pick any GTR, id go with a R35 for sure.

[@v8_sami]

That and the fact you can source parts for the r35 easier. Good luck with rb26 parts here in North America.

[@rawchet]

is a 20de auto sedan worth 15k? 🤷‍♂️ nostalgia tho brings childhood back I have a r34 sedan rb25det and it’s great close enough to the skyline on gran turismo I played as a kid but the coupe is closer for 40k+ nzd but man I could do so much to my current car for that price 🤔 manual swap next years goal because 4 speed auto or any auto in general is 🥴

[@jyaj007]

Japanese cars are a market where it's affordable to purchase but now it just makes more sense to just buy a hellcat or a Lambo for about that pricing... Love the cars of all japanese makers we grew up watching or playing in videogames but the market for them are ridiculously but ppl still willing to pay for them ridiculous pricing too, can't hate on the trend if ppl are willing to pay their life savings on them

[@RESPECTxORANGES]

It’s not worth 300k. I probably wouldn’t even pay 100k. All the 90s skylines are rather plain looking cars. The main reason I’d get any skyline is to have an RB25 or 26. Not to have some crazy special and expensive car. I have a bolt ons evo 9 that makes all the cool noises and I didn’t over pay for it. Im just happy I have an old school jdm car at all the way prices have gone up.

[@黒キツネ-九零二一零]

i never wanted a v spec. just a normal r34 gtr, which i found for 80k. or i can just buy a r32 and interior swap it
