Babidi Bibidi Boo, here comes the goo.

And what now, you will complain about the “evil free market” ?

It's not communism to artificially regulate the price of everything.

>>28482764
It's not by communism but JDM auction prices are very much artificial

>>28482827
Now I would like to write some brilliant retort , but I can not.

get a gtr body kit and force it/mod it to fit a mustang new edge

What do you expect from being a fan of JDM meme cars? The R32 or R33 is to a Zillennial what a '57 Chevy or '64 Mustang is to a boomer. Unless you're a successful richfag you're going to be priced out of all of the JDM "hero" cars for the indefinite future since even 200k mile USDM Supras are $75k+ cars now. I'm a JDMfag as well but I happen to like sedans, so luckily nobody is artificially inflating Crown Majesta/Royal/Comfort or Gloria prices just yet.
In a similar manner, importing something like a "manual 1JZ Chaser" is just asking for a bad time, since you really don't want the clapped out drift missile with hacked up wiring that some nip has been abusing for decades. The transmissions already exist in the US (also artificially expensive for similar reasons), so if that's what you really want I'd import a pristine, low mileage automatic example and "build" it yourself.

I think that's called maturing

Skylines are just 30 year old nissans. If you've sat in a '95 sentra then you've sat in an r33. Same interior "quality", same materials.

They'll crash down in value eventually. We're definitely in a JDM hype bubble right now, just like there was a classic muscle bubble a few decades ago.

Shitty 3rd gen supras and wrong engine/trans Z cars go for stupid money right now... Its a bubble for sure. Only question is how long it'll last. Probably gonna be decades, Tokyo Drift and Initial D really did hit car culture like wrecking balls.
