As does a Standard R33 GTR Sadly, neither exist anymore Eta: it would appear I'm wrong, but with a £15k premium. http://pistonheads.com/sales/4133288.htm

I think part of the appeal is that for every one nice one there are 30 horrific examples and I maintain that the basic shape is very well resolved, especially without the rear wing. And the power. That's quite appealing too.

Does that work out better than buying one for £9-10k that someone else has spent £6k making terrifyingly fast? Why is that? Just asking I really want to do the Jap turbo thing some day. That Supra appeals massively
