    Apparently that M2 1015 is a special car - ‘For the Autozam AZ-1, 50 examples of the ‘M2 1015’ were planned, which included dual fog lights recessed in the bonnet, a new front bumper and rear wing, and full body paintwork. It was available in just three different colours, including silver as offered here. Despite the planned production, it is understood that just 25 were built. ‘

      1:03-That was a french🇫🇷 1980 Renault R5. Renault took there front engine front wheel drive economy car called the 'le-car' in the usa. or it was called the 5 elsewhere. and they re-engineered it moving the engine behind the driver. They did this to make a rally car out of it. So you were looking at the street version. It has a turbo intercooled 4 cylinder engine making 160hp.
      The racing version made 350hp....in 1980!
      THAT R5 is got to be one of a very few in japan.

      From wikipedia:
      In May 2001, the M·Spec[62] was introduced. It was based on the V-Spec II, but had special "Ripple control" dampers, revised suspension set up, stiffer rear sway bar and a leather interior with heated front seats. The 'M' on the M·Spec stood for Mizuno who is the chief engineer of Nissan. The only other change was the removal of the carbon fibre bonnet which was replaced with the standard aluminium bonnet.
      In February 2002, Nissan launched a final production model of the R34 GT-R called the Skyline GT-R V·Spec II Nür[63] and the Skyline GT-R M·Spec Nür, which were based on the V-Spec II N1. The Nür was named after the famous German Nürburgring racetrack, where the Skyline was developed.

    Jusg wondering does the 25 year rule in the US refer to the ability to register the vehicle or customs allowing in to be imported?
    For example if you find your dream car thats 24 year old could you import it and store in for 12 months then register it.
