Skyline GTR 32 Price and Questions?
My friend found a skyline he wants to get but he's not sure if its a good price or not. Assuming everything is good and its legal to drive in the United States, what would be a reasonable price for a 91 R32? I dont know alot about skylines but Im guessing this is RB26DETT, electronic AWD (can be RWD) skyline. The other owner is saying that it has South Carolina tags, is insured and passes carolina safety inspection. Is this all it needs. If he brings it to VA and it doesn't pass safety or emissions can he get around it... maybe under the table some how? I'm trying to help him out and I've tried doing some research but I'm having alot of trouble finding relevant information for Skylines in Virginia. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Re: Skyline GTR 32 Price and Questions?
if its a GTR and and depending on its shape they go for about 30's-40's
If its a Federally legal car aka motorex its in the 40's range
You can even find some cheaper depending on condition, mods and how legal it is

Many Skylines were subsequently imported through Motorex. This lasted until late 2005, when the NHTSA became informed that not all 1990 through 1999 Skyline models would perform identically in crash testing. Motorex had submitted information for only the R33, and told the NHTSA that it was sufficient for all R32, R33, and R34 models. According the further review by the NHTSA, only 1996-1998 R33 models have been demonstrated as capable of being modified to meet the federal motor vehicle safety standards. After that, only these 1996-1998 models are eligible for importation. In March of 2006, Motorex ceased all imports and Motorex principal Hiroaki "Hiro" Nanahoshi was arrested and held on $1 million bail on financial, kidnapping, and assault charges.[17][18]
Nanahoshi and Hiroki Miyake are co-defendants in case no. TA08356, filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court. Both Nanahoshi and Miyake have been held to answer for charges of attempted kidnapping, assault by means likely to produce great bodily injury, assault with a stun gun, and threatening a witness. In addition, Nanahoshi is facing civil lawsuits from GT-R and would-be GT-R owners and jail time over unrelated charges not associated with Motorex. Motorex is reportedly an empty space with a lone wrecked GT-R shell on site.[19]
