Sales demand for the V36?

Hi guys,

Is it just me or is there no demand for these cars atm? I have been trying to sell my car for a few months now and no bites. I have my V36 on carsales for 21,999 (80,000km) and I havent had a genuine hit yet.

What am i missing here?!

Anyone having the same issue with selling?

Yes, the car market is beyond awful at the moment. There is a silver Type S with 98k on the clock for $18,500 that has been sitting around for ages, a white SP with 125k for $17,500 and a charcoal Type P with 99k for $18,900. Seems you are a tad above market price, but not far off - your kms are better though, obviously. Just hang out for the right price/buyer if you can wait, otherwise you have to drop your price. Sucks, but that is life. I am dreading selling my black V35, given the low prices of V36s :(

My advice also is to give yours a better (or professional) polish and take some better photos - your Carsales ad makes the paintwork look pretty rough to be honest - especially on the bonnet. Does it have Akebono brakes? A pic of them will help sell it too. And as much as I quite like the Hiros (I assume that is what those wheels are), if you have the stock wheels chuck them on and sell the Hiros separately - they add no value.

The 2012's are starting to be imported and listed at low 20k's too....

The 2010MY newer is unfortuately a significant jump forward in interior and exterior finessing and so will also push down the values of the older V36's.

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
