Here is a brief rundown of the history of the car and all other information a potential buyer may appreciate. The R34 was the last GTR needed to complete the GTR collection my father and I have acquired over the past few years. The process of acquiring the R32 and R33 have taught me exactly what to look for on the skylines and when to run away. When I was first notified about this car, I thought it sounded too good to be true but I knew I wouldn\u2019t forgive myself if I didn\u2019t go see it. Needless to say, it checked all the boxes and then some. \r\nTo this day, I am just as amazed with the condition as the day I went to see it. The interior of the car is immaculate. The seats and bolsters show absolutely no wear, underneath the floor mats is as clean as it gets, the sills in the door frame still have the blue protective wrap from the factory, all hvac works flawlessly with cold A/C, and all of the gauges work as they should. \r\nThe exterior of the car is fantastic as well. The Midnight Purple II paint looks completely different with the slightest change in sunlight or the angle you are viewing the car from. Pictures make the paint look very unique but when you see the color in person it is truly unbelievable. All the lights work as expected, the lenses are crystal clear, and the headlights tilt up and down as designed. The rear bumper has one mark on the bottom passenger side corner that was there when the car was purchased and the wheels were all as pictured when it was purchased. The wheels and bumper were left as is since I did not want to change the finish from OEM. \r\nThe chassis is really where this example stands out, all strut towers are spotless from underneath and above, the pinch welds are as straight as an arrow, all of the factory paint marking on bolt heads, brake lines, ect is vibrant in color and visible, the zinc coating on the bolts show nothing has been touched, the engine bay looks as if it rolled off the production line yesterday, and all the attesa components in the rear are flawless.\r\nDuring its time with us the car was fitted with HKS coilovers, a Tomei catback, and Volk te37\u2019s to make it look a little more perfect (in our eyes). The car was driven to a few shows and on some scenic Sunday drives. The R34 is an iconic car and will always remain a dream car to us, but the current values of them makes it difficult to just take the car out and enjoy it without worrying something will happen. With that being said, it is time to pass the torch to someone who will enjoy the car without worry or simply sit back and admire the Pinnacle of JDM Performance. \r\nI uploaded the CARVX report (Japanese Carfax) to the listing to verify the milage and show it was graded a 4.5 at auction in 2015.\r\n\r\nPlease let me know if there are any questions or requests!\r\n\r\n-Matt", "likes": 11, "timestamp": 1625159927, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 6464347, "authorName": "NY-Skylines (The Seller)", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/ny-skylines/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "@artreality I honestly have no idea on that one lol, could be quite the coincidence, either way I will see what I can find out.", "likes": 3, "timestamp": 1625160229, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 6464353, "authorName": "VistecRimports", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/vistecrimports/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "We have done work with Matt before and very trusty gentlemen so bid with confidence.
