Would You Consider A Yellow R34 Gtr?

[GH05T]

I dont mind getting it from JHC or JOC and paying the fee however the owner has had the car for nearly 10 years now, is it really necessary for the report?

always..... up to you though.

[r32-25t]

With the car having been here for 10 years the report may not be available. Cause I thought I read somewhere it wasn't until 2007 that Japan started keeping records

[JRelle]

I'll request for it and if the papers can be provided then happy days.

I own one of roughly 60 ev1 34r's it's one of the rarer colors in the bnr34 range.

I specifically only wanted one in yellow and it took me a few months to find one, they rarely come up on the auctions in the Japan. Resale wise they wouldn't be any worse, I haven't seen this Colour hurting resale/residual value of the car..

iirc "GTR 34A" was a low km car only a few years ago, so it's piled on the km's' in a relatively short time frame

[r32-25t]

Gtr34a isn't the one that's for sale currently

[djvoodoo]

GTR34A was for sale last year i remember. Car was driven in the Newcastle area back then. It isn't a Vspec, its a standard 34R with a Vspec2 hood and Vspec add ons.

[J_R32]

Apologies, misread and thought gtr34a was the car in question.

My only gripe with ev1 is the engine bay. Because it's just a flat base coat with no clear, years of grime and pollution stick to it and it just looks ugly!

To the general public, it's definately a color that stands out

[JRelle]

The car in question is a Vspec though. Owner took me for a spin and it was quite responsive. Engine bay and interior was so clean. the inside smelt like that weird fresh jap import smell still. lol

How can i add photos?

In saying that, how would you determine the cars authenticity?

Is it going to be a problem if it cannot be substantiated? (in the long run)

The car has done roughly 110-115k on the clock, owner advise its genuine ks

Personally I wouldn't consider it.

Too bright for my liking and it's some what of an acquired taste...

Ultimately I like White / Pearl White / Millennium Jade / Bayside Blue / Black.

[GTR_JOEY]

I like the Yellow

Ive been searching for a mnpIII, bsb or yellow (in preference order) 34R for quite sometime now.....I guess yellow won the race.

[r32-25t]

If I hadn't of just bought an Sti, I would have been chasing that yellow one as well

[JRelle]

You could always import one.

Evidently there was a yellow one that was recently auctioned and listed on prestigemotorsports website.

http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/stock/show_car.php?id=3526

Non vspec sold for 52k with 125k on clock.

Cant complain with the price of the yellow R im dealing with. its a v spec too.

[GTR-N1]

Other than Silica Breath and Millennium Jade, Yellow would probably show up dirt the least.

[Tommy Kaira RL]

I had a yellow & black SLR5000. I love the yellow.

There was a yellow one for sale about 5 years ago i looked at which was nearly written off. Needed a fair bit of work.

[JRelle]

requested auction and dereg papers from jhc. apparently the auction sheet could not be located. response below:

Thanks for ordering a check with us. We've performed some preliminary checks and suspect that the car may have left Japan too long ago for our auction sheet check to work. We'll go ahead in procuring a registration certificate and let you know how we go. We'll be in touch by the end of the week.

Afaik red / yellow didn't come with the v-spec option?
Happy to be proven wrong.

I have a BSB R34 & I hate yellow cars.

But I would definitely consider this one. I think you'd get more attention in a yellow bnr34 then a blue one.

"But bro, why did you respray it?!"

The car in question has not been resprayed.

If I get it, I'll swap you for your bsb r? Lol
