Different cars are considered better or worse in different countrys tho.

Like Audi's esp S models, are somthing special in America, they ten a penny here.

Non-GTR skylines here are considered somthing special here for some reason, but in japan they are seen for what they really are, plain bits of crap to get to work in (or to sell to suckers in the UK as they belive anything with a skyline badge is special ).

Cosworths and RSs are treated as cheap bits of crap in most of Europe, but here and a few other countries they are Legends.

And so on and so forth.

For instance a mint 997 Cooper in unrestored condition is worth huge ££$$ wherever you live. If you live in Britain a Subaru WRX 1994 is worth £5k, in Japan it's worth £2.5k Big difference
