DC2R are going for the $40K-$50K mark these days which is ridiculous, but I'm not sure the rules of physics apply any more

If you were going to spend that $40K-$50K mark on something Japanese surely it would be JZX100 Chaser or a nice R33 Skyline GTS-T.

Sub $30K buys JZS161 Aristo and JZS171 Crown

Can't believe the prices of 1990s/00 JDM these days, I guess they're Millennial hero cars.
Yeah its nuts. I got the car itself for $24k and they seem to be rising pending condition etc. I also have a red one which seems rarer than the other colours.

I do like a chaser but unless for spending 40-50k then their had to find. Also the other cars noted are either to old or dont come in a manual and I didnt want a turbo for track stuff. Cant wait to get these brakes done, its really the weak link of the car (a few more Nm's would be nice but its enough for me to get in trouble).
