Dude,

All im doing is applying common economic sense to the issue. The car could be a gtr or any other car, fact is, as an item of wear and tear, they depreciate in value regardless of the condition.

Besides, no credible person would be able to geniunely authenticate your claim that its never been trashed/raced etc.

The fact that no one has come forward to take it off your hands at your desired price simply reaffirms the above mentioned facts.

No need to get all hot headed and throw insults... i'll pull the post out to make you happie.

Cheers

Yes please do....

Mosman motors have a GTR for $105k with 30, 000kms on it. Powerplay IMports has one pure stock standard with 32,000ks and they are asking for $115. They have sold 3 others in the last 6 months, all above $115K. My car has less Ks and more bits inside and out so you are not comparing apples with apples man, Ecomomics only applies to production cars, that is why some ancient COBRAs replica can still fetch $60k because it is a unique car. Now where is the economic in that?

Vspecs normally found around $120-30K, Vspec IIs, $135-140K, Vspec II Nur (if it is a genuine) $145K+, Vspec II m spec, Closer to $200k from what i can tell, but there's none around here..Based on last years sales from Japan, all with 4 or higher auction rating, All costs included.... some where as high as 7,with as little as 50kms

I'm not chatting, i'm informing

guys - enough!!! i will start deleting posts otherwise.

Swoop - back to selling your car. (will you trade me for my GTR?) :D

I have seen this car at my work. I can vouch for the condition as I have seen it in the flesh, and have seen it driven. Whoever buys this car will be a lucky person. It has the street presence of a Ferrari and looks so awesome.

Good luck with the sale Phil.

I'm looking for a good 4WD. If someone has a good 4WD (eg Rav 4, 5 door, 2nd hand Jeep Grand, Mazda Tribute, Ford Explorer, etc) I would consider a trade + $85k on top. It has to be a recent model though like 2002+ if it is a Rav or cheaper 4WD, preferable in black. Does this help anyone get into an R34 GTR?

Sorry, I don't want to sell an R34 to get into an R33 GTR.

I'm not desperate to sell me car, but willing to pass on the privelege to the right buyer...plate is negotiable.

Swoop,

this is your Cousin, if you really wanna sell the GT-R you should talk to my Dad! .... i think he's been eye-ing that Skyline for a long time, and wants to get rid of the LS400.... I'm pretty sure it's the sort of car you can see him cruising around in... :(

yo, put it in the paper and the usual places (im guessing you already have but i wanted to get in on this thread also) someone will buy your car thats for god damn sure. selling a car is weird one week you will get no calls/ interest but the next week your phone wont stop ringing. Stay firm on your price if you want to sell it you will!

LEX-BOY, if you almost pissed in your pants from the G-force when I took you for a spin, then I doubt your dad can handle it given his heart condition. He would not be suited in such an awesome car. It is reserved for a chosen few with the right $$$$....

Sorry to say but you can't compare the prices of car yards to private sellers. I know my GTR's and I know that you can get these cars for under $100k. There are 3 in the latest unique cars for sale for $85K. I have seen 2 of the 3, they are all 1999 models and thats all they are worth. The 2002 ones are $100k + but not the 1999 models. the black one I saw for sale in Bowral was immaculate! 18,000kms. We all want top dollar for our cars but the market for these cars is pretty slim. Your best shot is ' UNIQUE CARS " as real buyers including myself buy this book reguarly. I just paid $62k for a 98 R33 V-spec 12,000kms. Brand new condition, $10K WHEELS $8K BREAKS $20K IN OTHER RECEIPTS. I wanted the best so I looked for 2 years, and I found it. I know what you mean when you say there are GTR's and there are gtr's, there is a big difference in a GTR priced at $35 and one priced at $60k. Most people want the cheap ones cos they cant afford the quality ones. try Unique cars you wont be dissapointed. I love the look of your car man and If at the time i could have afforded 100k then I wouod have deffinatley considred it. But $60k was enough for me seeings though im only 22. Good luck with selling it :D P.s I have posted a pick of my car in the ACT section under " Got my car "

Cheers

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
