Inspector Notes

Inspection notes record seat and steering wheel wear, meter hood distortion, half leather wear, wheel scratches and small dents. The auction diagram also highlights A2, AU1, U1 and W2 markings across various panels, indicating small dents, scratches and minor imperfections. These appear cosmetic in nature and consistent with normal use for a performance vehicle of this age and mileage. No major structural issues have been recorded.

Why This Model Is Special

The Nismo specification represents the most driver focused version, engineered for sharper handling, enhanced aerodynamics and more focused performance. These vehicles are widely compared to Porsche GT3 models, designed for drivers who prioritise performance and engagement over comfort.

As performance focused icons continue to become more collectible, the Nismo variants are often the most desirable and tend to hold value strongly. With limited production and strong enthusiast demand, examples like this are increasingly seen as long term ownership opportunities.

Finished in Black with Nismo styling and Black and Red leather, this example presents the aggressive appearance expected from a performance focused model and looks ready for action.

How Autoselecta Bidding Works

Autoselecta operates on a maximum bid system designed to secure vehicles at the lowest possible price. Buyers provide their maximum budget and we handle bidding on their behalf, only increasing bids in £100 increments.

This means if a buyer sets a maximum bid of £60,000 and the auction finishes at £53,000, the vehicle is secured at £53,000, not the full maximum budget. The maximum bid simply allows us to remain competitive while ensuring buyers only pay what is required to win.

This approach ensures transparency while securing vehicles at the best possible price.

Let Us Source The Right Example

Performance icons like this come in a wide range of specifications, mileage levels and price points. Autoselecta regularly sources vehicles to match different buyer requirements, whether that is lower mileage, specific colours, upgraded specifications or investment focused examples.

Our sourcing service allows buyers to secure the right example while avoiding dealer margins and accessing vehicles directly from Japanese auctions.

Summary

A strong 2016 example showing 41,133 km, finished in Black with Black and Red leather and graded 4.5 overall. A driver focused performance icon offering strong value, exciting performance and increasing long term desirability.
