hey guys,

i'm new to the site and new to skylines in general.

i've had my Ps for a couple of months now and am looking for a first car.

i'm going to have a look at a 93 model R33 GTS4 NA automatic in a couple of days. the guy didn't give me a price he said come have a look at it then we'll talk.

the car is black, stock standard except for the full body kit. it has 80,000Ks and from what he said it's in immaculate condition not a single scrach on the body.

what i wanna know is how much should i be paying for it.

since i have no idea what these cars cost i thought it might be a good idea to ask on a skyline website.

any help is greatly appreciated

cheers

id say leave it and look for a manual one. unless you want and auto and you only have an auto licence.

IMO it isnt a skyline unless its a turbo and manual :P

i would say being black and in 'immac' condition, and also where you are located will also affect the price. $10k-$11k anything more and hes dreaming.

hey thanks for the replies guys.

i went and had a look at it this morning. i can tell you that i've never seen a 13 year old car in such good condition. as hard as i looked i just couldn't find a single scratch on it. the inside is just as good.

i don't really want an auto but yes i have an auto license and would probably keep this until i get off my Ps.

the guy is my cousin's cousin and he's asking $7,500 for it.

what do you guys think?

G'day...

I'm in the same situation.. Yet i'd be onto my second car... FRIGGIN COROLLAS! anywayz.. If i were u i'd buy it, thats a fair bargain for a GTS-4. I'm looking at a 1995 GTS-4 and the guy is asking $12500 for it..

If you don't want it i'll be happy to take it off his hands haha..

give it one of the mechanical checks. racv do it and so do a few others. although it may cost up to $200 its better than needing to spend a few k when something goes horribly wrong.

go right over it too as the imac exterior could of been an el cheapo respray. check the inside of the doors etc just in case.

Or it could be the best buy ever and you gotta jump on the chance :) do a mech check tho. important when buying any second hand car.

    • Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.
    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
