I almost thought this was a Gran Turismo photo.

I’m not even a 34 fan but these Mines gtrs are quite possibly the most beautifully built jdm cars of all time. I just love the mindset of the company. Just amazing.

Can I just say, the R34, when modified properly, is one of the very best looking cars of all time!? I don't mean beautiful in the way a Miura or E-Type or 250 GTO is, but it's one of those cars that just looks so bloody perfect that you can't help but stare at it for minutes, hours even, and feel a sense of joy. I certainly do. These two are two of the very best looking R34s I have seen! Whoever decided to cosmetically keep them standard and only put that front bumper, and not put a hideous widebody kit and stanced wheels, is an absolute legend. Whoever it is, thank you!

That Mt. Fuji sunset shot was goated af, what a time to be alive when you could relive those moments endlessly on the Internet.

I never get tired of Larry's GTR content. I always learn so much and his enthusiasm makes it so worth watching.

[JustinGadue]

These are hands down the Most BEAUTIFUL R-34’s I’ve Seen in a long long time!!

“It has a conservative 650 hp” 😂😂 Larry I’m old enough to know 650hp isn’t conservative but I know what you mean given today’s power. Muscle car guy my whole life, but I do love and respect these builds, almost concours builds with extremely tasteful/utilitarian modifications

[ChrisRuzin]

the sounds these cars make... eargasm. exquisite builds.

[GregoryWorth-ml]

Incredible builds and spectacular photography at the end.

I definitely remember Best Motoring driving the R34 Mines car back in the day, it's burnt into my memory forever. I also think it did a 56 seconds lap at Tsukuba which is insanely fast.

6:49 Thank you for including me in the video Larry!!!

The start of the video what it looked like if I’m seeing the finest Katana swords side by side!!! The level of details, art and beauty of Mine’s and Built by Legend!!! I love the philosophy of Mine’s and the Art of Built by Legend 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼❤❤❤

This is a comprehensive art that embodies the uniquely refined aesthetic and the extraordinary perfectionism towards craftsmanship that is characteristic of Japanese.

[harryvuemedia]

Two beautiful & cleanest R43 GT-R I have ever seen. They sure do know how to keep it well maintain. And for sure anyone who buys these 2 cars are not going to be driving them weekly but rather storing them away to raise their values and resell them again.

Honestly, I would never spend $700k on these 2 cars just for them to be show cars. I like to drive my cars, show them off, rev them up and track them!

[jdmj]

Not getting that "ah stop it" slap from Niikura-san! That's the highlight bar none.

Larry is a man's man. He is one of the goats in the car culture community but he replies to everyone like a friend!

[jamesboggs]

Not a JDM fan but WICKED works of art. Gotta be one of the best drivers cars out there.

[Newwhipsya]

Those 2 cars just a thing of beauty.!! Excellent work..!! Thanks Chen ..!! True culture Art JDM …
