The “R34 Tax”… Are these JDM Legends worth the $$$?

In this episode of KONIG’s “Behind the Wheel” Podcast, we get real about JDM legends and ask the question no one wants to answer out loud:

Are we paying for performance… or prestige?

We’re breaking down the hype vs reality of owning iconic cars like the Nissan R34 Skyline—the poster child of Gran Turismo dreams and Fast & Furious fame—versus the often-overlooked but crazy capable Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4, a twin-turbo, AWD beast that never quite got the love it deserved.

We talk:

Build potential – Which platform gives you more bang for your buck?

Driving experience – Is one really more fun, or just more famous?

Value vs. hype – Are buyers chasing performance, or chasing clout?

Maintenance, tuning, and real-world ownership – What’s it actually like to live with these cars today?

We’re not here to hate—just here to have the conversations every car guy (and girl) is already having in the garage, the group chat, and at 2AM on car forums. Whether you’re Team Skyline, Team Underrated Sleeper, or just love all things JDM—this one’s for you.
