WTF?
Skylines have to be one of the most reliable cars on our roads today. Not to mention comfy, quick, and good looking!
If I were you Crazy, I'd go the Series 2, Much nicer inside, Dual Airbags, Updated headlights, which in my opinion look fantastic, and really make the car look alot newer than the series1. and a few other things. As for the turbos being a little different, that doesnt apply to you because youre not looking to modify it by the sounds of things.
For a nice clean spec2 you can expect to pay anything in that price range you said, they are more expensive than a spec1, but a lot nicer, and have a 'newer' feel to them. Plus, if you want something thats reliable, you would want something a little newer anyhow.
Things to look out for.
- K's wound Back
- Accident Damage
- Complied?
- Warranty (If you get from a daler make sure they provide you with a warranty)
- Hard Life (Make sure its been well maintained)
- Turbo
Its just like buying any car mate, get it fully inspected and checked out by a mechanic that you trust, then get it done again by someone else. If your happy with it, buy it! You wont regret it.
Also.. make sure you can afford to insure it
