I really like my E90 (2006 325xi) that I bought in April. I'm digging the upgraded wheels that one has.

Can I guess you are going to jump on this insanely good deal?

I think RS has a forum for these type of postings:

is this a good price for a fairly stock 1995 r33 gtr (non-vspec)? it says most of the major consumables have been replaced ie. tires/brakes/clutch/water pump and timing belt?

1995 Nissan Skyline GTR

^ Going rate I would say. I sold my near perfect R32 GTR over 6 years ago for less than that, and I could have asked more. Nice GTR's are hard to come by, and it's worth paying a few thousand more for a good example. Prices don't change too much up here, but the US might be another story.

R32 GTR was manufactured in 1990. 25 years now. They are legal in the US but 1990 only depending on build month.

There are some bad ass Americans that have bought them and insured them on Canadian plates. Drive it across and register them as another Nissan like a 240sx

The R32 started in 1989 actually, not 1990. August 1989-1994

People were bringing R32 GTRs as early as August last year.

Given that OEM hardtops are at least 3.5-4k, that is a decent price for a late model AP1. Probably at least another 1 or 2k less to make it a good buy, since it has the less desirable tan interior (personal preference) and no soft top.

Pretty sure you won't be able to sell used OEM ht for 3.5-4k based on my years of ownership back in the day, unless the market has drastically changed.

They go for around 3-3.5K USD nowadays on S2KI ever since Honda discontinued it

Of course it's going to be a total local's market as no one really ships these to another market

My OEM top sold in two days for that price. Had others asking too. So it's around there.

Putting in a soft top was a bitch, get a buddy to help you out. Took me about 7 hours. Used soft tops with frame is about $600.

i remember it was advertised about a month ago i think at $55-60k so i don't know what is going on with it... but what i meant about the suspension and brakes is that the extra weight from the supercharger really messes up the balance when bone stock. it's borderline with the gt performance package but on the base model it's not good... plan ahead to spend more $$$.
