seems fishy. i wouldn't consider it unless they're dot spec and you can go see the cars yourself. the ad says they have 5 skylines. seems cheap for a skyline. where is this?

exactly. It's pretty sweet, but it's a GT-S not a GT-R for starters. MotoRex went under by frauding all of their clients by telling them that the skylines they imported were street legal lol. It sounds risky to me. I would definitely thoroughly check the thing (including making it street legal) if you are serious about it.

that $11.5 is just for the car, making it street legal to pass smog is where all the money goes if it's not already done.

its going to be more than that. its a big *** hassle too....... i went threw this when i was trying to get a s15 over. teh cars cheap s15 17k even evo4-7 are cheap like 9-13k. getting all the dmv and red tape to clear is goign to cost you double the price of the car.

Yup, I'm pretty sure that's a GTS-T, not GT-R. Huge difference for you idiots that still don't know...

Yeah, they're cheap over in Japan. Here's a R32 GTR my friend was selling while I was stationed over there for $4800. But imagine the headache and hassle trying to get it legal in the states.
