you just love giveing miss information drift dont you and your comparisons arent a true representation of the market. $2000 for compliance of a 15 yearold car that doesnt heven happen in victoria. 400 000 for an rx 7 I can guarantee you that car would be modified where as the stagea is stock.
also the rx7 is a different type of car compared to a rx7 how much is compliance on a series 7 rx 7 is it 4500 I think you will find it alot higher.I can see you only trying to feather the nest of your raws buddies. the 15 year rule has its own place in the market persoanlly when it comes to gtrs I tell people to get the later ones rather than the 89 models for various reasons. but these new rules if they come in will limit different cars like the laurel and pao and many other from coming in cause the raws will not bother with them as the numbers of the cars they can do is severly limitied.
personaly I would prefer the 15 year rules to stay the same. becuae if we get to a raws type system for the olders the cost of compliace will be very high.
also compare the average 15 year old merc or bm from japan 80-160,000 klms the comparable car here in aus has 2-300,000 klms plus the car hasnt been subject to the rigorious 2 yearly inspection regime that applys to the japanese cars. So there for you dont tend to have high levels of rust or body damge as these cars tend to be wrecked when there is a large amount of work required. the 15 year old car buyer is generally not your later model car buyer it is some one who wants a specific car for a specific reason ie an enthusiast.
