I would like a clean LHD all original ITR for 9-12k but it ain't gonna happen. That ship sailed a few years ago.

If you plan to mod and drive the car you may consider higher mileage or a car with an accident to get your foot in the door. Just get a full inspection, maintain and enjoy.

For anyone not paying attention, desirable manual (esp 6spd)cars that provide a fun driving experience have been going up in value. As mentioned in other threads, E30 Edit: E36 E46 M3 E39 M5, S2000, NSX, ITR, air cooled 911, GT2, GT3 have all gone up in value over the past few years. Likely a combination of demographics (the generation who drooled over these cars can finally afford them), USD exchange, and the cars coming to market that do not provide the same fun and driver feedback. (There are some exceptions such as BRZ/FR-S/86, Cayman, Miata etc)
