Nissan Skyline GT-R

Seven of its ten results predate 2019 and its $142,500 high is June 2021, the top of the JDM run. Read in date order the two sources tell one story: about $91,000 to $142,500 in 2021, $69,000 to $71,000 through 2022, $53,000 to $57,000 in 2023, and $42,500 to $59,500 since. This model has given back roughly half its peak, and both sources say so independently.

Across the eight standard cars price correlates with the odometer at minus 0.257 and implies only $567 per 10,000 kilometres - about one per cent - while price against date correlates at minus 0.634 and implies minus $4,799 a year. Date and distance are uncorrelated in this sample at 0.050, so the two separate cleanly, and together they explain 45 per cent of the variance against 7 per cent for distance alone. The penalty moves from 1.2 to 1.0 and should be understood as a nominal figure rather than a measurement: the 191,240-kilometre car made $57,000 and the 37,104-kilometre car made $53,500.

GT-R registry vehicle number 1,205, a Spark Silver Metallic V-Spec II imported in 2017 and never registered here, sold at Cranbourne West on 30 January 2023 at 145,768 kilometres for $82,000, and at Artarmon on 5 December 2025 at 145,800 kilometres for $70,000. Thirty-two kilometres in thirty-four months.

Both listings state the registry number, which is as close to a chassis match as a public lot page gets.

The 2025 listing states the seller has been advised the car needs an engine rebuild, and the 2023 listing disclosed nothing of the kind. Part of that fall is a rebuild nobody had priced in 2023 - the same shape as the AE86 pair, where a rust disclosure appeared between the two sales. Treat minus 14.6 per cent as the outer bound of what the market did.

Five Australian V-Spec and V-Spec II results - $66,000, $70,000, $77,500, $82,000 and $91,500 - carry a median of $77,500 against a standard-car median of $55,250, a premium of about forty per cent that holds across five lots and three years. Two Shannons V-Spec figures went with them, including the unexplained $260,000 result. Everything below now describes the standard car only. This is the same correction this library made on the Evo VI TME and the MX-5 NA.

An N1, number 90 of 118, made $150,500 in February 2025 - nearly three times the standard median in the same month a V-Spec made $66,000. A Nismo, 101 of 560, made $82,500; a Tommykaira R $79,000; and a Scuderia-complied car with claimed Targa Tasmania and Ross Ambrose Racing history $62,000. Four badges, four markets, one model name. SOURCING: auction lot pages read in full, one to one against each result, which is the strongest grade in this library - alongside a Shannons run that is real but is now describing a market that has moved.

Ten standard-car sales, all Shannons, the deepest local record of any car in this library. They run $53,000, $57,000, $64,000, $69,000, $70,000, $80,500, $87,000, $91,000, $91,000 and $142,500, with a median of $80,500 - which puts the value carried here almost exactly on the evidence. Three of those sold in a single Melbourne sale in July 2018, at $87,000, $70,000 and $64,000. Three cars, one room, one day, and a third between top and bottom. As with the BMW 1M, that spread is condition and history rather than market, and it is the best available guide to how wide the range around this figure really is. A V-Spec sold within a $240,000-$280,000 estimate in August 2022 and is excluded: the V-Spec, V-Spec II and N1 cars are a separate and far dearer market.

Fifty-five lots, 80 per cent clearing. No direction is claimed, because the record is thick with cars that are not standard R32s - Group A race cars at US$379,000 and JPY39,018,100, a JGTCC-GT1 at GBP230,000 and US$280,000, an ex-Paul Walker car, HKS Zero-R, Tommy Kaira, Autech, Nismo Edition and Endless-R builds. All are set aside from the price series.
