Hi Guys

I’m looking to buy a Black 2009 GTR, looking at spending around the $90,000 mark might have a little more.

Very serious and ready to buy like TODAY /NOW so if you guys know or could recommend somewhere I can go.

Any advice/guidance please reply or send me a PM. :-)

90k is a reasonable price for an 09 but whether sellers are willing to accept it, is another matter. There are a number of 09's that have been sitting on carsales.com priced well over that and that's what they've been doing, just sitting! As warranty expiry is just around the corner for these cars, they'd be well advised to accept any reasonable offer given otherwise they may find themselves taking an even bigger hit later in the year.

Good luck with that... Your probably expect to pay in excess of $100k - $115 for anything half decent

What do you mean anything decent? I don’t think people that have purchased these cars brand new would trash them, unless you track it.

I think 90-95K is more than reasonable for a standard GTR considering the car will be out of warranty soon. (08, 09)

Depends what your after. A track pig or garage queen. If you can find a black one for $90k today I'll buy another one. If an 09 is priced at $90k what's a 10 worth? &100k? Your dreaming if you think this will happen. I was recently in the same boat. I spent 2 years waiting for the price to drop where I think they were worth. And still didn't find anything for my valuation. Realistically $100k + right now today for an unmarked black 09 gtr if you can find one is a great buy. If your happy to go for one with higher km, maybe low $100k. There's one in vic now on Carsales. I found I might not have been prepared to pay what vendors were asking but someone else was and all the good ones got snapped up. End of the day for a $100k car you'd want it to be immaculate with low km. good luck with your endeavours, you may have to wait awhile to get what your looking for

I know of a 2011 for sale with 4.5k on the clock where the dealer is asking $149k for it. It's essentially by all accounts brand new, has all the latest updates and is in a desirable colour.

A 2009 is a 3 yr old car now, realistically I'd think one is worth $100k tops. A 2010/11 with all the updates is more desirable, thus commands a premium. But that's just my 2c.

As I said. If you can find one right now for $90k in black you've got it for a steal. My 2c is it's wishful thinking good luck coz you'll need it. You won't even find a 2010 for $120k. The difference between an 09 and 10 is negligible, definately not $30k difference in price. $15-20k tops

I have seen 3 09's purchased for sub 105k.

two in average condition but nothing a good detail wouldnt sort out (though milage on one was geting a little high at 45k when 2 years old) and one in great condition. it all depends on the circumstances of the vendor

I agree 90k is probably pushing it for a clean low KLM's 09 at the moment. From April though these cars will start running out of warranty. Now I know warranty is not important to some buyers but it is to others and as Nissan Australia offer no option to purchase extended warranty for the GTR the value of these cars will start to move towards the 90K mark. The 11's look like they're dropping fast and as the 12's have just arrived I'd look at spending a bit more and try and nail down a bargain!

$90k is probably on the low side but good luck, it's a very small market. Either way, you're going to drop $1.5k a month on depreciation yourself for a while, too. Which will make the $10k you save (vs the current price) look like play money.

I'll think you'll find inevitably $90k will be common, but your probablly 12 months premature. If you want to look at historical depreciation look at the M3. Similar priced new and similar depreciation. 07 and 08 beamers are selling in the $80-$95k range. GTR's are, I consider far more exclusive and desirable, so I'll think you'll find they'll hover in this bracket for a few years and the $1-2k depreciation will stop whilst the later models drop to make way for the newest realises. So the 10's and 11 GTR's depreciation will advance considerably to a point where they're all in the $70-$100k range in 3 odd years time. I think the Gtr will bottom at around $70k for a few years. I reakon in 10 years time they'll still be commanding $50k. After all they're considered a supercar, and they do have the x factor. Every time I drive mine I notice people taking photos on their smart phones and always every time get a yelp or thumbs up... I don't think that happens in an M3 too often

My dealer is trading my 09 in for just over the 100 mark, I assume they will turn it around to the next buyer for about 110 ish.

My advice:

1. You may have to up your budget a little, maybe by as much as 20 - 25%

2. Dont worry about the number, it only happens once, after that it is all about the car, and what a car it is!

You will be delighted, go on, do it!

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
