Sell Or Store?

[Tangles]

SAU group rent ?

i bars the 1st week

need 51 other takers

[fieds83]

$1000.00 per week should do the trick.

[Tangles]

thats fine

dont run to me tho *if* the clutch/engine dont last past the 6th day

in all seriousness, Id be keeping it.

[fieds83]

Thats ok i will make reconditioning the responsability of SAU as part of the contract.

[kralster]

Well if it sits in storage it's just gonna lose you money.

Sell it and when you come back you'll probably have enough for a R34 GTR

or even a 36 GTR...

Yep good idea, shuld be being released around the time i will be ready to buy again.

Nice car! You'll love Airlie man, i lived up there for 5yrs, you'll have a ball!

Things just got harder. I met Troy from boostworx on the cruise last night and found out that i have a fresh built forged bottom end including sump baffle and metal head gasket etc. The engine only has 2000km max on it and is ready for upgraded turbo's and suporting mods. Its not everyday you come across a car like this and have these nice little suprises pop up.

dont do it......

you'll regret it.........keep her

yeah hang onto it i know Krastler seems to think you'll loose money on it but i don't its a GTR very rarely do they loose money

i don't know if it was going to be a daily driver for you but if so i do 20,000km a year so you can look @ it as having a lot less Km's on it when you get back

and what ive heard about storing cars is you dump all the fluids before you leave it but you will want to ask Shaun about that

I disagree there are hardly any cars in the world that don't go down in value. Unless it's some really really special edition a year from now it's going to be worth less.

A few years ago you couldn't land a 34GTR for much under 100k now you can get nice ones in the 50k bracket.

I think your better of selling it and then getting interest on the saved money, or investing it.

30 k on a car sitting in storage isn't going to make you money. But 30k sitting in a bank account getting interest sure is.

Plus you've got storage fee's, insurance (what if it gets set on fire or stolen) etc, etc.

If you really really love the car then keep it, but other than that i can't see any advantage in keeping it.

[Madaz]

yeah i agree but i think you made it sound like its going to depreciate like a GTSt

and you do make for a good argument 30g in long term deposit = more beneficial in the long run

[kralster]

heheh i definetly agree that it will hold it's value much better than a gtst, but having a gtr sitting in a shed somewhere and not being able to drive it would send me bonkers!

[dangerman4]

to late for that kralster.

your allready cooked.

[kralster]

umm what?

[fieds83]

Couldnt agree more about the car being a depreciating assett. I will be selling for the sole reason that i would prefer to have the money working for me not a car working against me. Like was mentioned earlier, its no special edition its just a gtr with a built motor which lets face it are a dime a dozen.
