Leather In Your Stagea

[Angus Smart]

can anyone tell me or pm me prices of what a series 2 stagea 99ish with maybe 70000k? with leather with all options... (usually the leather ones have all the options) sells for at auction?

something the site i signed up for doesnt tell me. i can bid on cars but i dont find out what they sell for

[Stinky Rooster]

How long is a piece of string? It all depends on the km's / condition / demand on that day.

I can give you one tip though.

DO NOT post any pics or details about any car on here that you are going to bid on until you have won it. The importers and agents all keep any eye on these forums and if you post up anything about a car you have found and really like, when it goes to auction the price will shoot up because there will be a few extra people bidding on it purely because they know there is a buyer for it.

[Angus Smart]

Yeah i figured that.

and a bit of searching done and i actually can select which ones i like and it will tell me if it sells and what it sells for

good way to find out how much my leather is really worth

and yer i aint that silly i am an internet auction king

[Angus Smart]

p.s.

I am excite!!

[Stinky Rooster]

^that was NOT called for

and yer i aint that silly

No offense dude, I didn't mean to infer that you were.

Its just this has happened on here (and not that long ago too) and I wasn't sure if anyone had realised that people have been burnt like that.

I know I sure wasn't until a little bird whispered in my ear.

[Angus Smart]

yeah its understandable! and i know you didnt mean to offend!

but all good i know what i am lookin for now and everything.

then comes the next hard part the import approval import shit.

but first i must stop dreaming for a bit and sell this gearbox!!

even if i had leather i'd still put sheepskin over it.

Looking on the Yahoo auctions I've seem a few complete leather interiors up for sale. Would definatley be a container job to get it here but the prices seem reasonable. Long way down my list atm though

[IMPORTD]

yeah someone on here did the leatherette seat cover thing, do a search... they looked good. Some people had problems with installing them on thier skylines, only because they rushed into it and had no patience

For me, leather looks good, but with the heat we have here in Perth, it would be so uncomfy... and the heated seats option, absolutely useless here, unless you're living amongst snow

[rubba]

Too hot with leather seats? Cmon thats what A/C is for

[Stinky Rooster]

D'ya know why, when a man see's a woman dressed in leather, his heart rate increases, he gets endorphins going and may even break out in a sweat??

because she smells like a sports car

[leetom]

farts sound good on leather

The model that you are looking for is the prime edition, if you want all the bells & whistles. The silver, white colours definately sell for less. I have seen them go for as little as A$6000, for a 2000 model with 70,000, but you have to be lucky or maybe careful! I paid $13,000 for mine, ($25,000 landed complied and everything paid inc insurance), but it has a full body kit, 18" alloys, and is Bayside Blue, original 78,000km's. Just be careful of respray's. I am happy to run any numbers through FAST for you.

This is the last prices published for a Prime edition

Date year cc Shift km's Colour Model Model US$ grade

22.03.2007 2000 2500 FA 74 pearl WGNC34 25T RS-4V PRIME 6800 4

15.03.2007 2000 2500 FA 57 pearl WGNC34 RS-4 PRIME E 10400 3

01.03.2007 1999 2500 FA 35 pearl WGNC34 RS-4 PRIME E 10200 4

Because of their prices I am fairly certain that the last 2 are turbo's too. Of course the auction sheets would have told you more.

Oh and don't bother asking where I get the info, cos I won't tell!! But believe me it's true, I know I found mine too.

Ciao

PS I have found the leather great even on the hotest days it certainly isn't unbearable.

Ahh so when looking at them on auction. not all the ones which say RS are turbo?

Thats what i was led to beleive on here..

i dont think i will be ready to buy one now till august.

[joe26f]

get the Type B 25t RS-V same as mine rwd leather sunroofs... everything

[Angus Smart]

so clearly rwd and 4wd are both compliable. one is wgnc34 and wgc34

which would be better suited for towing a gtr?

yeah someone on here did the leatherette seat cover thing, do a search... they looked good. Some people had problems with installing them on thier skylines, only because they rushed into it and had no patience

That was me ... and thanks.

Yeah if you have patience with putting them in they come out looking awesome ... everyone who gets into my car loves my "leather interior" and how comfortable it is. No one has picked up its not 100% leather yet, kinda shows how good a product they are.

Having said that ... l do throw my AXS seat cover on for daily driving, as not keen on coming outta the gym or from a ride & sitting all sweaty on my seats.
