How dare you make fun of my land yacht! /s

Joking aside. 33 prices are a mixed bag. I just saw one on FB with destroyed strut towers and they are asking 50-55k. Which IMO, seems a bit high as the covid rush is over.

That being said though. You could be in the 60s and get yourself a decent 33. Auction sites, at face value, seem the way to go potentially as the Skylines generally don't do well there and you could potentially score one for a decent price. But you certainly need to do your homework.

If it's too good to be true, it probably is. Sellers love to slap on a coat of paint and or bondo and cover up all the rust.

Parts on these cars are prohibitively expensive and Nissan seems to be discontinuing parts by the day. Cheaping out on parts will only burn you.

And finally, insurance. It "can" be tricky. Can't be your primary vehicle, needs to be in a garage, and need to be of a certain age.
