1990 R32 Nissan Skyline GTR NISMO Edition ~ 1 of 500

This 1990 R32 Nissan Skyline GTR NISMO Edition collector car at the Best-R dealership in Japan was available in July 2016. It had only 27,000 kms and was in near new condition.

The dealer price was equivalent to approx. $130,000 including luxury car tax (LCT), plus tyres and on road costs.

It was not inspected for a client however is included as an example of the sort of specialist vehicles we source from Japan, including dealer vehicles where these are unique and difficult to find at auction.

We send our agents across Japan to inspect as required, this generally includes over 200 pictures, paperwork check, physical inspection and test drive.

The specialist GTR dealer Best-R in Tokyo that has this classic for sale initially told us it was sold, then when we followed up with them the next day apparently “the buyer didn’t come up with the cash”.

As it turns out, it seems Best-R just want it to stay in Japan for a number of reasons including ongoing promotional opportunities for their company.

Buying for export where dealers are not that cooperative isn’t necessarily impossible, but it certainly isn’t easy to arrange. However we would always give it our best shot !

Sourcing collector cars is one of our favourite things to do after all.

There would be very few NISMO Editions left in this sort of condition with full history, and with the level of enthusiasm being shown for GTR’s in Japan itself now it’s easy to see why prices for the best examples are rising so quickly.
