Version L markets.

So far as I know, the only market where version L[with 4WS] was offered was the Japanese home market. As the home market is RHD, than all Version L cars I have ever seen or heard of have been RHD.

So this LHD car could well be the only one in existence. In which case, for rarity value alone, it is probably worth the money Darren mentions here.

For anybody in the USA, it has to be worth a lot for rarity value. Compared to the US domestic model, it has full-time AWD gearbox that US cars never got [called VTD-AWD by the Japanese]

It also has the motorised 4 wheel steering, not just the passive steering as on the majority of cars. This motorised rear steering was dropped after 92, as there was buyer resistance in Japan, they did not like the complexity.

K-Staff regularly sell cars in Japan, low kilometres cars, for more than that price. Personally, if I was in the US or Canada, I would snap that car up. A bargain as I see it.
