Maybe the price for a smashed up RHD itr with 200k and a shredded interior the way things are as of late.

alright, maybe it was exaggerated a bit. There was a clean it for 8900 here on rs. I guess what I mean it's pretty close and gsr doesn't hold value as well as type-R does.

nevertheless this gsr is pretty clean so I'll give it that.

If that's an authentic TRD 3000GT widebody that alone is 15-20k with paint and labor, let alone the fully built motor and turbo kit. I don't even want to think about whether that's a real Top Secret hood.

I believe that Supra runs a old T72 turbo. I really doubt it can produce anywhere close to 1kwhp.

With that aside, the price is quite good if that's the kind of car you are looking for.

Don't think RG built it. It was purchased from States already built, RG re-tuned it I believe.

I have seen the car in person when it came down to my work as it is right now. It definately needs some up keep on the exterior side: full detail for one is a must. I can tell you that the hood I don't believe is a authentic top secret, given from the fitment that I saw is was a seibon replica. The only other thing that I saw is the targa top couldn't be removed as one of the targa nuts inside the top was broken, they were trying to find ways to fix it though at the time which I think he was considering buying a new targa top.

Only other thing I would agree with Supraz666 the old t72 is capable of putting out big numbers but don't think it would be reaching them anymore. For the price right now I would say it's a good buy given a little work he does fluctuate the price a lot I have seen it go from 88,000 down to 48,000 at points.

Subtract off the cost of subframe welding. This isn't a mod that you don't get your money back on, it's a requirement for this car.

That means he's really only asking 20k for a one owner no accident e46 m3. Maybe not the best price, but certainly market value right now.

Tempting

I think honestly it's a great price. Our dollar isn't worth shit and it's a nice rare(ish) car. No one will find a better one for cheaper, unless they are VERY lucky.

I think patience is key. The USD has been dropping in the past month and NASDAQ just dropped 2% yesterday. It might be worth waiting a few months before buying your next toy.

I noticed that and thought "Is there a light at the end of this tunnel?" Ha! Like an asshole waiting for the US to crash again. Yup, that's me!

Nothing has depressed me more than the rising of the US dollar right at the time I'm ready to pull the trigger on something spectacular. Paying a $10k+ premium due to currency fluctuation makes my balls hurt . You can really tell that locals(dealer and private alike) selling higher end cars are upping their price due to the exchange.

Take this for example: 2007 Porsche Turbo 997
Would have been closer to $80 back in the summer.

While not to purchase big ticket items like cars for me, it really sucks paying (with Visa) a 27% tax every time I buy car parts from the states. $1,000 suddenly becomes $1,270.

And that's just the exchange. Imagine paying the PST/GST at the border when you bring it across. It gets out of control real quick.

My $1100 driveshaft quickly became $1500 after shipping, taxes and conversion. I guess I can't complain since full price would've been $2100 right now.

I sold my 4 year old car for a 14 year old car and it was the best decision I have ever made besides marrying my hot young wife.
