R32 Gt-r's Advertised For Sale At Their Lowest Levels.


Recommended Posts

I've seen that one, not a big fan. Too many bits and pieces I'd remove and its boosted...

Buy a tidy/rust free car. Return it to stock with new parts. Mosts "mods" are reversible.

What you sell some of the aftermarket parta for could cover the stock parts.

When i was looking for mine i wanted certain attributes but after you look at a few that are 'immaculate' you end up buying the least shitbox one. Regardless of colour/year model....unless your budget is infinite.

I'm beginning to consider cars outside my original specs simply because the ideal car isn't coming up.

Id consider my budget fairly healthy at around 40-45 imported.

So far I've missed a few grade 4/4.5 that were a little closer to 50k delivered. I'm putting those misses down to the fact that all of those cars had around/under 20,000 kms.

My quest continues....

Stay on target - your time will come....

Cheers

Andreas - took me several months as well but very happy with the end result.......

BTW - for that budget you can probably return that Gumtree one back to spec ;-)

$45 to $1,100....that's worse than the GTRs themselves!

:13_upside_down: I didn't know the front/rear moulds jumped that much either. The last time I checked they were $290 and $322 for front/rear, I really should start stocking up more on new parts.

Worst still........... That's just the outer moulds, then you need to buy the inner fasteners. They are a couple of hundred each too!

In a couple of years time these cars will be well and truly out of the reach of the enthusiast.

The poor cars will be wrecked out and the good cars will continue to rise in value.

My mate bought this Porsche 911 in 2008 for $42,500....... Spent about $18K over time and it's a multiple trophy winning car.

Listed it late last week....... http://www.classicthrottleshop.com/modernclassic8.html

Ironically, how many 911's do you think Porsche made between 1984-1989? These were last of the impact bumper cars......

Total - 70,044 That's coupes, cabriolets and targa's but still....... A lot higher number than R32 GT-R's!

OEM front a rear bars will be one of those expensive items as time goes on.

Not to derail the thread but the 32 GTS-t's are getting scarcer. Particularly unmodified.

I imagine trying to find a clean and stock R32 GTS-T would be like trying to find a clean and stock S13/180SX.

That 911 appreciated a fair bit! I always thought the ~44,000 R32 GTRs were too many, but those 70,000 911s prove it's not.

In contrast, there's 40 R32 GTRs going through auction at the moment in Japan. While a lot of them are most likely not that great, 40 is still 40. Will be interesting once it ends up being less than 10 going through auction in Japan regularly. If it ever ends up at this point anyway.
