And my Suzuki Alto Works RS/R
But in Japan, past 20 years, cars are getting really rare or expensive, while 15-20 years old cars are dirt cheap.
So, 25 years old skyline will be in scrapyard or collectible (and expensive).

For me the 89+ is the best looking alto
My favorite small car (not a kei car actually) is the Honda City Turbo II (already 25+ yo and a collector), but it's fwd only. It must be a blast to drive though, 110hp from factory in a car as small as a kei car.

110hp you say? fwd?
look no further because the March SUPATURBOOOOO has the same specs yet is twin charged and weighs pretty much the same
MR japan meet anyone?

There was also another Kei-ish car that had even more power and was FWD. It was the Toyota Starlet Turbo, or the Starlet Glanza V. It had 135 BHP and like 110 torques. I'd roll a Glanza V in a heartbeat.

I don't think so, even if right now they could sell in QC AE86'es... Next year it will be Silvias/180sx and in 2 years, R32 GTRs... so it will pick up again I bet

But the March is ugly. The City turbo II is cute yet manly (wide body).
It won't pick up again, like I said 25 years old car in Japan are in the scrap yard or super expensive. They could already import a bunch of 25+ yo classics if there was a market for, but the main market for jdm cars are broke ti counes who want a fast car for cheap. I couldn't care less about Skyline and Silvia, but there are so many kei cars, small trucks/vans or unsual cars available in Japan.

The March has Ballz that's all that matters.

Yeah... You got a point.
Also, if the Yen exchange rate stays like it is, it's really not profitable to export from Japan right now, compared to a couple years ago when it was 100+ yen to 1$ (now it's like 80)
