Hahaha.
I can get the same car 5k cheaper. A lot of these jap import places just advertise cars for sale on t'interweb.
I used to import cars before the Yen went sstupidly strong against the pound. In 2009 i could import a 1999 GTR with 500HP for 30k OTR. But not now.

I just love that this one is showroom fresh. Would be nice to have the cash to buy it and stash it.

The best thing anyone can do is buy an R32 GTR. Spend about 10k getting a minter and when the US markets open for them, which I think they will be able to be imported legally there when they are 25 years old.
The price will rocket for one.
But back to your original post......yeah the car is amazing. If I didnt need 4 doors this is what I would get.

Why are US markets closed to them?

There are some very tough regs on performance car imports, the "Autos of Interest" and "Show and Display" laws have helped relax the situation but these don't make sense for lower value cult cars. Read up on the infamous "Gates 959".
