I got all excited until I did the currency conversion ![Frown](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
25,000,000 Yen = $308,045.02 USD: http://www.braveautointernational.jp/
A 1989 model with 6k miles and Japanese Condition 4 (Looks to me like it needs a good wash):

Got me thinking if money were no objection what would you have:
^ For me it would be the 959 every time but I’ll just have to keep on dreaming for now

It was HAWT for its time!
Saw one here in SD at a dealer. It has a standard 1980's 911 sized cockpit, so with the extra width on the fenders it does have a smidgen of the "overdone flares" kit car look. Didn't stop me from drooling on it. Besides, a kit car generally never has under the hood enough to justify the outrageous look...but this is a 959. ~3.2s 0-->60, good enough for me!
