This classic 1972 Nissan Skyline KGC10 2000GT coupe GTR replica was sold at USS Fukuoka on 16 March 2016 for 5,253,000 YEN FOB.
It had undergone significant restoration in the 6 or so years prior to auction with pictures provided on a link shown on the auction sheet. Total kms were unknown (typical for cars of this age) and some rust was also noted.
While we did not inspect this vehicle, it is included here as an interesting example thanks to the many pictures provided by the previous owner which are indicative of the sort of work these cars usually require.
Total price in Australia at that time would have been approx. $71,200 landed plus approx. $1,000 compliance allowance, plus tyres if required and ORC’s (calculated at a rate of 85.07 yen to the dollar). Luxury Car Tax would also apply and has not been included, LCT could add another $4,000 or so to the final price.

Before I picked up the Starion I got Shannons to insure the car over the phone — they said they would do it for $10,000. I went into their office today and they upped it to $12,000, that’s how good they think it is. They said they’d never seen one as clean. Thanks so much !
