seems as though the new gtr suffers the same problems of its older brother blisteringly quick but ultimately uninvolving.oh well take enjoyment in the fact that while youre smashing everything else on track...i was going to add more but i think that bout sez it

Name a car that 'keeps' it's value?

You can pick up a R33 for 30K now that cost 100K when released. the Ferrari that its just a few seconds faster than (on that track) cost probably 300K on release and 200K or so now. (approximate, of course).

Ok so it's lost 70% of it's original value in what, 14 ish years. That's not holding its value...

Err, that's exactly what i said. "50000 pounds. Hasn't kept its value since then... (good or bad, who knows?)"

Compared to the ferrari, at least. My point is, you can get a car that's about as fast (in certain conditions) for a lot less nowdays.

yeah... nah, your wrong

Private Price Guide $104,700 - $118,800

both are worth about a 1/3rd of their original price, except if you bought the ferrari you would have lost triple the money :blush:

So obviously we need to all be rich and buy cars like ther Ferrari F40 and McLaren F1 which GAIN value.

I'd like to see top gear do a test like this now with newer versions of these cars... well an evo instead of the 3000gt.

One thing Id like to point out.

For a Ferrari of that price range, would only have about hmm 5-20k kms on the clock. If you have a look around, Most are Very low Kms.

Now if you did the same comparison to teh R33 for examlpe.? How much do you think you would have to payf or a R33 GTR thats only done a 'Genuine 15k kms'

My guess. 50k -65k or more?

^^^Dont they always :P

lol "teh GTR can neva loose!!" - it's a right call though, gtr's are uninvolving to drive. seriously, i've driven r33 gtr's that felt slow, and then it runs a 12 all day every day lol.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
