I saw a R34 in real life before, in the US.

 

I was at a star bucks drive through and the guy behind us was in a Skyline R34 and im like No freaking way that's a real R34 so I flagged the guy down and asked him if I could look at it and the guy was chill he was like yeah yeah I get this all the time, no problem. I asked how he got it in the US and he said him in his buddy's were in Japan and what they did was bought one over their teared it down and shipped it over, and then re-assembled it in the US. He said when he bought it he bought it for 3400USD (whatever that would be in YEN) and it turns out they scrap cars over their at 40,000 miles, unbelievable right.

[zxcvbnmmssdh]

Somewhat High-end, I would day like a Mercedes E class

[Simmytu]

Mine would be a Volvo S40 from 1999, old and slow for today's standard but reliable just like my Packard Bell Easynote

Are skylines not illegal in the USA right now? (R32,33 are not but the R34 still is for another few years i think)... perhaps because it was reassembled in the USA makes the difference? Also the most important question Was it a GT-ST or GTR!

[Real_PhillBert]

3 cylinder Geo Metro.

As long as it meets the safety and performance standards any foreign vehicle is allowed in the US.

 

For example my friend Ryan had a BRZ TS imported (straight up imported and fully assembled he paid for like 2 of those cars to get that over here) and he didn't have to do anything to make it legal because it met safety standards right out of the box.

[TheSLSAMG]

I would have to equate mine to a Willys MB US Army Jeep.

 

• It is currently hobbled together with parts configurations that "just work", such as the RAID 0 500GB + 500GB laptop HDD array I have in place of my dead SSD.
• It is quite loud. Thanks Corsair SP 120s.
• It looks military, since it is an a Corsair C70.
• It just works.

For reference:

[CoolBeans]

Aston Martin Vanquish, it looks nice and it's is fast

[Tech_Dreamer]

 

 

Sempon 145 FTW...

 

 

[loccilucas]

Probably an RS4 its really fast but people don't expect it to be (talking about my 660ti)

[GrmanRodriguez]

I'll say my laptop is a Kia Picanto, it may be slow and not meant for performance but miles per gallon are excellent (battery life is over six hours) and reliable, plus it gets somewhat fast when you need it to, and gets you from point A to point B

 

 

I want a LaFerrari PC though, just saying

[Jumper118]

my pc cost more than my car . my pc is like an impreza with 700hp. it may have a small engine (i5) but it can give the supercars (i7's) a run for there money.

I have now passed judgment on you and the verdict is that I am going to have to sever all contact with you sir, please consider other peoples feelings before making everyone else's rig look insignificant and worthless after seeing this heavenly creation. 

[HellaflushMcSwaggins]

Mine is an EVO 8, small engine, but with a bit of tweaking it could give a prebuilt gaming pc a run for its money.

Specs : i5-4670K | Gigabyte 7950 | 8GB Kingston RAM that needs to be changed | G1. Sniper M5 | needs more storage(still struggling with 500gb 3.5'' HDD + 320GB 2.5'' hdd)

[Thorium19]

When my proposed pc is built, I would liken it to a noble m600 or jaguar f-type, however my laptop is like a Morris Marina

Proposed pc:

Yeah man, Japan places very little value on second hand objects in general and that is unfortunately one of the few ways to get them in the US without paying a lot for it. Once they are dismantled and imported they are classed as a kit car so can be imported with fewer regulations, they are a little bit more common here in the UK but they will run you around £8000-14000 ($14000-24000) for a good one that hasn't been abused, $14000-24000 I've seen a couple about but god damn they are beautiful!

[WinNut]

An ancient car that won't go more than 45MPH, my PC is poop. A Pi would probably be equivalent to my dad's 2004 Mercedes ML-500.

[ManWithBeard1990]

Renault Trafic. Because it's bigger than a 900D but all it contains is an APU.
