Okay I have a really terrible decision to make. Im on the looks for a 30k-35k nissan 370z nismo and just found a perfect specimen (Germany, 10k miles, driven only with leather gloves, garage and summer season car only) Now just for giggles I wrote an importer about the possibility to acquire a close to perfect NISSAN Skyline R34 GTT For the same price range and I just heard back today that it would absolutely be possible to import and convert (legalize for German TÜV and register) a very good specimen for my price range. Now I'm throwing my head around between the safe bet (370 nismo) and what my heart wants (the skyline) I absolutely am not dependent on the cars. I solely want them because I like them and I have plenty other options to get from A to B. However the skyline was never sold in continental Europe so the spare parts situation is a bit sketchy and everything has to be done by specialists that import the parts from Japan for a hefty bonus. Still it would be an R34 skyline in very good condition or a practically new 370 nismo. Really can't decide at the moment however I do have plenty of time to make up my mind.

GTR you are looking at about 100k+ € at which point I might as well get a Porsche GT4... or the down payment on a house

The importers originally were engine specialists and offer everything from street tuning to FIA approved motorsport conversions. They work together with Harlows Jap Autos and JM imports and a few others to get the cars from Japan to the UK which would be the point when my money comes in (as soon as the cars are in the UK and can be inspected) I feel in good hands with these guys but it's a different level of "oh God what am I doing" Than spending that money on a barely used EDM sportscar. To be honest I already know I will lay down a deposit to start the import process. There's still too much 16 year old me in my head.

The Z successor will not come to Europe actually. The 370z will be the last manual nissan sportscar sold here I'm from Germany and all the cool German cars have long gotten expensive too. There's no difference in buying a good skyline or a good 6 cylinder m3. Just more people have experience working on the m3 here.
